A man killed his mother as he believed that she was a vampire who bit him during the night.
The incident took place in Oregon where 56-year-old man named Robert Bruce Poe has been accused of fatally stabbing his 79-year-old mother, Judy D Poe.
Robert informed Lincoln County Sheriff's Office deputies on March 12 that he has accidentally committed the crime.
According to him, his mother was a vampire who had been haunting his nights, leaving him with blood-stained sheets and a sense of terror.
As law enforcement officers rushed to the scene on East Logsden Road in Siletz, they saw Robert, with his hands and clothes stained with blood. He held tightly to his mother's belongings, a purse and a letter. But Judy was nowhere to be found.
Judy's lifeless body was eventually located, 250 yards away from their home. Judy was officially confirmed dead at 9.55pm by Lincoln County officials.
Police investigators found a large stake, broken end of a garden tool, protruded from her throat.<-p>
Robert was detained as he was now facing serious charges of second-degree murder and unlawful use of a weapon.
When questioned, Robert told investigators that he believed his mother to be a vampire. He said that his mother poked him at night and caused him to wake up with blood on his sheets, according to police.
The accused will appear before the court on March 20.
Robert was previously arrested on being accused of numerous crimes since 1986 including possession of methamphetamine, theft, DUI, harassment and for driving uninsured.
