The Black Water Vampire Page #2

Fish is a fish.

A dolphin's

a mammal not a fish.

Danielle,

so why Banks?

I've been kind of obsessed with

him for a long time.

I grew up around the area.

Oh, you're a small town

girl then, huh?

Yeah, tiny little Baptist town.

You know, I mean, we...

We thought we were safe.

You know, it's just home,

school, church, nothing really else.

Then the murder.

Millicent Barnem.

She grew up in Fawnskin,

which was just a few miles

from where I grew up.

Okay.

She was 17.

She disappeared one night and they

found her body two weeks later.

Nothing was ever the same

after that.

Huh.

I was 12 when they

arrested him.

Banks. He became

the boogeyman of

my childhood, you know,

he became the monster

that was in the closet

at night, you know?

Monster in the closet,

what do you mean?

Well, as kids

we would sing a rhyme.

d One, two, three

Banks is coming for me

d Three, four, five

He'll skin me alive d

Okay, we are gonna take

Highway 14 to Fawnskin.

I just need you to find that

on the map for me, Andrea.

Bloodsucker Highway.

Bloodsucker what?

Bloodsucker Highway.

It's because of all the bodies

and murders in that area.

What about 'em?

All the bodies were

completely drained of blood.

Some of the town people

made up stories

and they believed that

there's vampires

living in the woods.

Vampires?

Yes, vampires,

they're folktales.

-Vampires?

-Yes, vampires.

So, yeah, about that.

You were saying

something about a hike?

Oh, um, it's gonna be

a three-day hike

up to Black Water Creek.

That's where they found

Millicent Barnem.

I just wanna get some

footage up there.

I just wanna make sure

I have my story straight.

We're going on a hike

into the woods

that could be full of vampires

and God knows

what other creatures.

That's the plan?

That's what we're gonna do?

Rob, there's no vampires.

There's no need for vampires.

What people can do

to each other is far worse

than any monster

that we dream up.

Trust me.

Do you guys

know about any of

the Black Water killings

that have happened

in these woods?

- We know they happened.

- Yeah.

We know they found bodies.

No blood.

No blood at all.

How do you feel

about Raymond Banks'

conviction?

I totally believe

Raymond Banks is guilty.

He kind of had a reputation

around town for chasing after

young girls.

He was a weird old coot.

Do you know

who Raymond Banks is?

Yeah, he scares me.

d One, two, three

Banks is coming for me

d Three, four, five

He'll skin me alive d

-Yeah, that Raymond Banks boy.

I don't think he did it.

It's a shame that they just

gotta snatch up somebody.

Get up in ours,

'cause poor white women,

you gotta get somebody.
