C: The Vampire Killer Inspired by Queen of the Damned | Allan Menzies

When obsession turns to madness, the line between fantasy and reality fades to black.

In 2003, a young man from Fauldhouse, Scotland became consumed by the dark world of Queen of the Damned — believing a vampire queen had chosen him as her eternal servant. What followed was one of the most disturbing and senseless crimes in Scottish history.

Join me as we descend into the mind of Allan Menzies — a man whose delusion, devotion, and psychosis led him down a path of blood, betrayal, and murder.

Because in Rogue Darkness… truth is often darker than fiction.
