LISTEN NOW: The Vampire King - Part 2

An intelligent man, Marcus Wesson had become more erratic and deranged as the years droned on. He had been steadily building his family with unusual cult-like rules based on religious teachings of his own conception. He was a Vampire King. At other times, he was God or Jesus Christ himself.

FOUR YEARS: Yesterday marked four years since activist and musician Kelley Brannon went missing in the small town of Live Oak, Florida.

Kelley vanished from the Sunshine Inn in July of 2020. It was a town she was unfamiliar with. She had been fighting with her boyfriend. Police say the last known communication is a voicemail where she claims she was about to get in a car. She hasn't been seen since.

Her unique left-handed, white Fender Stratocaster guitar is also missing... have you seen it?

Please take some time this week to listen and share our two-part podcast on the case that aired last Fall.

We promise this will be the most in-depth and credible coverage of her case that you can find in a podcast. It is based off of Katie Kaplan TV's in-person investigative reporting and information from multiple sources connected to the case. The episodes include interviews with Kelley's friends, law enforcement, and private investigators.

NEW EPISODE: He believed he was not only a Vampire King, but also Jesus Christ. Marcus Wesson preached his bizarre beliefs to his massive family, and his children grew up not knowing anything about the outside world, or how unorthodox their lives were.

His reign of brainwashing, manipulation and terror… ended in 2004 with the deadliest mass murder in the history of one northern California city.

***Trigger Warning: This episode deals with in**st, and the sexual abuse and murder of minors. However, we believe is an important lesson in what can happen when children are not protected, and an intelligent master-manipulator is left to his own devices. Listener discretion is advised.
