On a more serious note the issue of bullying should be taken very seriously. It has a huge influence on the psychological well-being of the child.

[@ajaxslamgoody9736]

On an even more serious note, bullied kids should be taught to physically fight back. 1) Thats why kids survived, including me, because our fathers told us not to be we weak back in the 70's and 80's. 2) The other reason we stopped bullying back then was also not living in a WOKE fragile Society.

[@mizcarolyn]

I feel like I need to look into this case myself after watching this. The “experts” made it seem like this kid was just really into a movie, but when you start having hallucinations and delusions and have lost touch with reality, that pretty much defines a psychotic break. Not a hobby gone too far! I don’t know how the insanity plea/verdict fits in with all that. I was also put off by the ending. That’s a presumptuous statement to say he would never take his own life if he believed he was immortal. If his delusions were intact, maybe he thought this would get him out of prison and he’d come back to life on the outside!?? So many holes in this one. Usually I like this channel but this left more questions than answers. My heart goes out to the victim’s family. What a brutal memory. It’s absolutely tragic.

[@Raw_Roots]

Yup, you can tell the "expers" study from the same books. This kid needed help. It's shameful the system locked him up for three years, only for him to sit in a cell. He received no mental help, at all.

[@amazingsupergirl7125]

Well you can never actually know what happened unless you watch the trial. These KZbin true crime videos usually get it about half right

[@TheJungaloo]

Exactly.

[@lynnloww]

Sound so dumb on the “killing himself bc he thought he’d come back to being alive outside of prison” theory. Jesus lol. He KNEW what he was doing. In vampire movies, typically they don’t turn into one unless being bitten by one. AND the fact he tried to hide his heinous crime by cleaning it up and ridding the body.

[@h3llnite]

Bullying is very traumatic for kids and should be taken seriously. He should've been taken to a child psychologist early on, perhaps even reenrolled into a different school.

[@noella9234]

He was clearly already mentally ill. A lot of people get bullied and don't do what he did. He would've done this regardless.

All these forensic psychologists and no one delves into his upbringing, personality or offers an actual diagnosis. It's tediously drawn-out focusing mostly on lurid details. Very disappointing.

[@awkwardautistic]

There isn't really much information on this case.

[@ashaduplessis2772]

How do you expect them to diagnose someone without ever meeting them

[@record.retake.repeat7922]

Considering that there were already signs of unusual behavior and even saying that he wanted to be a vampire, the parents could have saught professional help or put him in an institution. Not acting on those could have prevented that murder.

[@awkwardautistic]

You can't just have someone locked up...unless they're a threat to themselves or others. You need absolute proof too.. Can't just say "he thinks vampires are real". I know from experience...I have a 21yr old son with mental health issues.

Obviously, the root of this tragedy was that he kept getting bullied and nobody did anything to stop the bullying. I don't get why bullying seems to be such a small issue in society, even though in fact it isn't. I can tell from my experience in school that most teachers don't pay attention to ongoing bullying. Sometimes they are the bullies themselves. I hope that has changed a little today but I doubt it.

[@glennjones6574]

That "kid" who introduced him to the movie looks 37 not 17... Lol

[@marinaborgert]

I really didn't like the overall direction of this. The "experts" being overly dramatic and quite unprofessional, the characterization of "vision" Akasha (so unnecessary!) and the simple fact that the narrator couldn't stop messing up by calling it by the name of the actress instead of the name of the character itself. Allan was seeing the character (a vampire!), as it was played by Aalyah, with her looks and voice and whatsoever, but he wasn't seeing the actress, the person herself, so it's quite disrespectful and unprofessional to keep calling the vision by the actress name. The said experts never going into details about the state of Allan's mind, possible diagnostics... just shallow "expertise" that makes us wonder if they were not in fact actors. This video made me realize how much I appreciate that there are a lot of good youtubers that cover true crime cases in a much better way, being more sensitive and respectful and not being attached to forced-dramatic-style with sprinkles of wannabe-humor of a tv format.

He could have truly believed he was a vampire to later have the delusion wear off. Delusions can be like that. When you are in them you believe they are real. After something brings you back to reality it can be difficult to deal with.

[@whaleymom76]

The irony of this (on a completely book nerd level) is that, had he actually read the book, he probably would have hated the movie since the only similarity between the two is the title! (For example, in the book, the Queen is a redheaded Celtic being with skin so white it's nearly translucent whose focus is the preservationof the Celtic lands and history.) I wonder if this realization would have distracted him from his obsession. (Of course, early therapy and intervention to help him with his trauma and isolation would obviously have been an even better plan!)

I watch the lost boys and storm or the century and the Shining and rose red so much since I was a toddler. To this day I don't really watch anything but those movies.. I'm just glad those movies didn't turn me into anything.

I didn't even know that was a sequel

Tragic for Thomas, this young man obviously had schizophrenia .. shame he didn't get help earlier. So sad. Xx

Even a C movie has at least one faithful fan 😅. This kid’s definitely not well on his upper floor.

[@wolfrahmphosphoros5808]

so what's so allegedly bizarre with eating ox-liver? can AnyOne explain, please? regards.

[@picklep9812]

Why do they need to recap after every commercial break

[@glennjones6574]

Interesting the black gentleman first speaking here has vampire teeth for real. Lol

[@laurastafford6217]

That's sad..He just fell through the cracks

I think anti social disorder was manifesting its self as a result of the bullying and the vampire movies served as a trigger. All that pent up anger had to come out some way. Just thinking out loud, but he kept signalling... like the rope he brought to school, the ox liver he kept and didn't tell his mom about, thereby provoking a reaction out of his mom... and ordering her (control) not to touch the ox liver, since it's not hers. One could go on & on.

Craig Jackson looks like vampires himself in this series
