The True Crime Writer As An Adventurer
Deciding To Become A True Crime Writer Came With Risks, Work And Reward From what I can tell, there’s a bit of the adventurer in most writers. Indeed, this term can be applied to writers of both fiction and nonfiction. It can be clearly seen in the life of Ernest Hemingway who, after reporting for the Kansas City Star for several months after graduating high school, traveled to Europe during World War One where he transported by … [Read more...]
VAMPIRE’S Sullivan Never Meant To Write About Bundy
Several days ago I wrote an article about real evidence, and how those personal items of murder can have an impact on the one holding and viewing such evidence. Mostly, the reaction will be positive, but there will be times when a sense of repulsion will surface based solely on what is confronting you. In the case of Richard Chase, there was one item that really turned me off. But most of it was interesting and contributed to my … [Read more...]
VAMPIRE Author Recounts Personal True Crime Story
“Follow that blood trail” I thought as I got out of my car. I was attempting to visit my brother in a downtown Louisville care facility (Ken had damaged his mind in the late 1960’s through the use of hallucinogenic drugs), but as soon as I pulled up to the curb of this three-story brick fortress-looking building, I spotted several small pools of blood, and a trail of blood leading inside. Being young and feeling invincible, I didn’t give it a … [Read more...]
VAMPIRE Author Talks About “Why I Write True Crime”
Occasionally, folks will ask me why I write true crime. And without missing a beat, I always tell them that before I composed my first sentence describing the murder and mayhem that is such an ever-present reality on our planet, I’d been a student of these strange happenings for over three decades. You see, the first true crime book I ever read was Charles Franklin’s, The World’s Worst Murderers. It was 1965, I was ten years old, and I became … [Read more...]

Vampire: Kevin Sullivan discusses researching the Richard Chase murders
On December 2, my book, Vampire: The Richard Chase Murders was published by WildBlue Press. It’s a tale of terror, where the city of Sacramento, California was, for a very brief time, subjected to a series of diabolical murders and mutilations from the madman the world later came to know as the Vampire of Sacramento. Referring to him as “vampire” was not an attempt at drama, but was an apt description, seeing that Richard Chase loved drinking the … [Read more...]
RJ Parker Calls VAMPIRE A “Must Have”
"The Richard Chase Murders by veteran true crime writer and historian Kevin Sullivan is fraught with emotion and detail. I always admire an author who dedicates their project to the victims, and tells about who they were and not just the crime against them. This is a well-written book that was researched in person and facts gleaned from key players during and after the Chase murders. A must have book for all true crime enthusiasts … [Read more...]
