A naked teenager stabbed his mother 11 times and reportedly cut off his own penis during a binge on the drug meow meow.
Charles Mann shouted: “This is the prophecy. I love you but this is a prophecy,” as he attacked his mother Emma whilst in the grip of a drug-fuelled psychosis.
Miss Mann mouthed the words "I love you" to her son as he entered the dock at Hove Crown Court on Monday.
The 21-year-old, who was 19 at the time of the attack on December 29 2013, had a history of drug abuse but had never suffered a violent or psychotic episode after taking them, the court heard.
The incident occurred in the kitchen of their home in Haywards Heath, West Sussex, after bingeing on mephedrone, known as meow meow, cannabis and alcohol.
Prosecutor Amy Packham said Mrs Mann had made a 999 call from the bathroom of their home at 6.20am on December 29, telling the operator: "My son's just attacked me and stabbed me and he's going mental downstairs with the knives."
She said the incident had taken place in the kitchen but she had managed to get away, locking herself in the bathroom.
Miss Packham explained that Mrs Mann had no idea why her son had attacked her but that he had had problems in the past and had been drinking and taking drugs.
Mrs Mann described some of her wounds to the operator and said she was finding it difficult to breathe, the prosecutor said.
Officers arrived at the scene and found the property in darkness, the court heard.
When they entered, the defendant, who was naked, approached them covered in blood and started to try and climb out of a broken window, the hearing was told.
Miss Packham said: "The defendant said: 'I have stabbed her multiple times, I have killed her. I have stabbed my mum and I need to be punished for what I have done.'
"He said he had taken meow meow, loads of lines of it, and a lot of alcohol.
"He appeared manic and deranged at the time."
The prosecutor said Mann told officers: "I am a paedophile, I do not want to live. Take me to the light, I can see the vampires."
She continued: "He was not reacting to pain and was described as manic and deranged."
Mrs Mann had suffered injuries to her back, head, neck and arms and was taken to hospital where she required surgery for multiple punctures to one of her lungs and internal bleeding, the court heard.
Following the attack she remained in the high dependency unit at the hospital for 14 days, Miss Packham said.
