Introducing: Insidious Inspirations

Bloody FM
About this episode

Insidious Inspirations is Bloody Disgusting's inaugural true crime podcast! Each week your host, Nichole Goodnight (NoSleep Podcast, SCP Archives) takes listeners through the true tales, urban legends, and monster myths that inspired your favorite horror movies! Tune in every Tuesday for a terrifying true tale, from the origins of Hannibal Lecter, to the chilling coincidences behind Moth Man's appearance!


George A. Romero has become synonymous with Zombies, and Night of the Living Dead. Less known, is Romero's vampire film! After becoming a huge commercial and critical success, Romero released a strange, disturbing, and oddly artistic movie called Martin. In one of life’s most disturbing coincidences, when the movie came out, someone much like Martin was getting ready to do something horrific. Seven months after Martin was released, a young and very unwell man named Richard Trenton Chase was about to let his lifelong bloodlust take control. This is the true story of The Vampire of Sacramento.
