January 22, 2008 (Mirror.co.uk / Jeremy Armstrong) -- A crazed son who stabbed his parents and then drank his stepfather's blood was locked up in a secure hospital yesterday. Thomas Owen, 28, thought he had to kill Joe and Sheena Foster to prevent the murder of a little girl, a court heard.

Schizophrenic Owen, who had attacked his mother several times before, stormed into her bedroom in the middle of the night with a 10in kitchen knife. He launched a vicious attack on Sheena, 47, and Joe, 46, then sucked blood from his stepdad's wounds, telling him: "Joe, I've got to do this. We are vampires together."

Mr Foster, who was knifed 12 times in the left arm and twice in the stomach, persuaded Owen to fetch his dog from the yard and managed to dial 999 on his mobile. Teesside crown court heard that he will never recover full use of his arm.

His wife was stabbed in the stomach, right breast and arm.

Owen told paramedics called to the family home in South Loftus, Cleveland: "I've got mental problems."

Toby Hedworth, defending, said Owen's medication was cut down when he had a dental operation and he thought he was better off without it. Judge Peter Bowers told him: "Clearly, when you are well, your stepfather and mother are the last people you would want to harm."

Owen, from Middlesbrough, pleaded guilty to his stepfather's attempted murder and wounding his mother.

He was ordered to be detained in a secure hospital.

His parents were in court and his mother waved to him as he was led away.

An odd mood

Enter the wolf
Cruel staring eyes
Burning with hunger

Enter the lamb
Soft, supple flesh
The screaming victim

Why do men wonder?
What is so strange?
When lamb meets wolf the lamb comes willing
To be engulfed by carnivorous jaws
Why should the wolf deny that
Which its very nature demans

Do you understand?
Probably not
You are neither wolf nor lamb
But the stealthful lynx
Masterful and cunning

Children playing in the street
Killed by Tandem truck
Is it so shocking?

Vampires as Victims

As vampires gain in popularity, they start to appeal to a different kind of person as well: the self-styled vampire hunter. The long-running popular television show, Buffy the Vampire Slayer, about a group of teenaged vampire fighters in California, has influenced this subculture. While for many, it's just role-playing, some take this game with deadly seriousness.

The Other

What is more important
giving her what she wants
or expressing the love
that she knows you feel?

How do you express this love
when the biggest-most important
way to do so is no longer
allowed but is now tabooed?

Why would she fight something
thats a part of me, the person
that she says she loves so much?

She says that she loves me and
I know that its true but than
why wouldn't she want to be with
me so we can both express it to
the other?
