Horror fans are just discovering the star of Final Destination Bloodlines acted in a cult classic decades ago
Fans are just discovering that one of the stars of Final Destination Bloodlines acted in a beloved classic nearly two decades ago... and many have been left stunned over the revelation.
Final Destination Bloodlines hit theaters last week and, ever since it premiered, many viewers have taken to social media to gush over actor Richard Harmon.
In the new horror flick, Richard, 33, portrays Erik Campbell - the cousin of main character Stefani Reyes, who is played by Kaitlyn Santa Juana.
His rebellious and bold personality quickly captured the hearts of millions across the globe, turning him into a social media sensation practically over night.
But when one X, formerly Twitter, user pointed out that Richard was actually in another popular movie when he was just a teen, hoards of his newfound fans were left completely shocked over the news.
It turns out, Richard starred as the Vampire Kid in the popular 2007 horror flick Trick 'r Treat.
Starring in the flick at only 16 years old, Richard's character was the one who wreaked havoc on the school bus before it plunged off a cliff and into the lake, killing him and the rest of the passengers on board.
Since it takes place on Halloween and he's wearing a Dracula mask in the scene, Richard's face is never shown during the flick, which is why many had no idea that was even him.
'Wait so you're telling me that the Vampire Kid from Trick 'r Treat grew up to be the dude from Final Destination Bloodlines that every man and woman are thirsting for?' one surprised X user wrote after making the discovery on Monday.
Immediately, their post went viral, gaining more than 479,000 views in a matter of hours - and hundreds rushed to the replies to share their thoughts.
'Bro this actually blows my mind. Trick 'r Treat is one of my favorite movies and I would have probably never noticed this,' one person wrote.
'Shut the f**k up no way,' someone else said.
'I am shook,' another another used, while a fourth added, 'I love him even more now.'
'Holy s**t that's so cool,' a fifth post said. 'So he's in two movies I love.'
'It's the same actor?' asked a different shocked X user. 'Trick 'r Treat is my favorite Halloween movie ever.'
'I didn't even realize that was him,' read another post.

Richard actually has a long list of impressive acting credits.
He started his career when he was just a kid, landing small parts in TV films like School of Life, Painkiller Jane, and To Be Fat Like Me.
In 2007, he starred in Trick 'r Treat, and he didn't slow down after that.
He appeared in Percy Jackson & the Olympians: The Lightning Thief in 2010, and landed a recurring role in the show Tower Prep that same year.

From 2012 until 2015 he starred in the show Continuum - but arguably his biggest role came next, when he was cast as John Murphy in The 100.
