Herschel Walker veered off in a campaign speech to rant about werewolves killing vampires

During a stump speech in Georgia on Wednesday, Herschel Walker said that he was a vampire and that he was a werewolf.

Walker regaled a Georgia audience with the plot details of a vampire movie he recently watched.

"Vampires are some cool people, are they not?" the candidate asked. A vampire can be killed by a werewolf, that's what I discovered. Is that something you knew? I didn't know that.

Walker said he didn't want to be a vampire. I would like to be a werewolf.

For more than two minutes, Walker stood at the podium and talked about the movie, which he identified as "Fright Night, Freak Night, or some type of night."

Tom Holland's 1985 "Fright Night" and its 2011 remake both center vampire in their stories, though neither feature werewolves, nor do their stories resemble the plot explanation Walker gave to a crowd of unaware supporters.

It's possible that Walker was referring to the " Underworld" film series, which details a mythical war between vampire and werewolf. Walker might have caught a late-night marathon of the "Twilight" movie.

Either way, the former football player tried to tie his crazy thoughts to his faith.

That is where it is in our lives. Walker described a movie scene in which holy water and a cross were used. We need to have faith.

Walker's pro- family and anti-abortion campaign has been overshadowed by revelations that he was hiding "secret" children from public view, as well as allegations from a former girlfriend that he paid for her abortion.

Walker supporters and Georgia voters alike could be in for three more weeks of vampire vs. werewolf because neither Walker nor Warnock won 50% of the vote in the election last week.
