Episode 174: The Lost Boys of St. Cloud

In March 1988, a riverside hangout in St. Cloud, Minnesota, transformed from a typical teenage party into a scene of ritualistic horror that would grip the nation. Fueled by a relentless obsession with the film The Lost Boys and a steady stream of cheap beer, 18-year-old Timothy Erickson convinced his inner circle that immortality was just one kill away. What followed was the savage murder of Donald Gall, a 30-year-old drifter whose death became a centerpiece of the era’s "Satanic Panic" due to the chilling blood-licking rituals that followed the attack. This episode strips away the supernatural lore to examine the raw, human darkness of the case, from the "Castle Greyskull" apartment where the plot was hatched to the 14-page confession that sealed Erickson’s fate.
