Summary:

Next-Door Vampire

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.

Charley's last chance is to enlist the help of Peter Vincent, Vampire Killer. But Vincent, star of a hundred horror movies and host of TV's Fright Night, doesn't believe in vampires, either. Until Evil Ed becomes one and tries to kill him. Until Amy disappears into the vampire's house. Until a has-been actor and a frightened teenager must face the greatest evil they have every known.
