Luke Rutherford was an average teenager until he discovered he was the descendant of Abraham Van Helsing - the legendary Vampire hunter. Luke is soon battling the forces of darkness whilst trying to keep his mum in the dark.
Luke's first test as the descendant of Van Helsing comes when children start going missing - including Ruby's younger brother, Jamie. Galvin believes that the half-lives are involved which are confirmed after a visit to Father Simeon. Rescuing the children involves battling a 2000-year-old demon called Gilgamel - who likes to fight dirty!
Galvin is blinded by vengeance when Mr Tibbs (Rat-Man) his wife's killer turns up in town. When Galvin rescues a kidnapped woman the group find themselves being followed by half-lives. Will Luke's help be enough to help Galvin defeat Mr Tibbs?
When Mina starts acting strangely, Galvin gets worried. Mina reveals that a vampire called Quincey is back in town and that he wants her to give in to her heritage. Mina and Galvin set a trap to kill Quincey; but it all goes horribly wrong and Galvin's taken captive. It's up to Luke to rescue Galvin and defeat Quincey.
Mina and Galvin's investigation of a murder lead them to believe that Luke is in danger. Whilst Luke is lying low Mina starts having visions of a winged beast; Galvin and Ruby are concerned that Luke's new love interest is a low life who had taken the form of a beautiful female to trick its prey.
Luke starts having nightmares about the car-crash which killed his father. To seek some answers Luke visits a psychic which leaves him convinced that Galvin isn't what he seems. Gladiolus Thrip returns with an unhealthy obsession about Luke's past.
