    Charley Brewster is a horror movie fan, a kid with an active imagination. So, when he begins telling people that his new next-door neighbor is a vampire, no one believes him. Not the police, not his girlfriend Amy, not even the school weirdo Evil Ed. 
But Charley's seen the coffin and the bodies drained of blood and knows he will be the vampire's next victim. When Charley can't get anybody to believe him, he turns to TV horror host Peter Vincent, who used to be the "great vampire killer" of the movies. 
Can these mortals save Charley and his sweetheart Amy from the wrathful bloodsucker's toothy embrace?  
This is the novelization based on the classic horror film written and directed by Tom Holland that redefined the genre and birthed a thousand knock-offs. The novelization were written by splatterpunk staples John Skipp and Craig Specter. 
This special audiobook edition is narrated brilliantly by horror icon Peter Atkins (Hellraiser, The Wishmaster), who reminds us that there are still some very good reasons to be afraid of the dark.
