Fang of the Vampire

Scream Street Book One

by Tommy Donbavand

After Luke Watson transforms into a werewolf for the third time, he and his parents are moved by the Government Housing of Unusual Lifeforms (G.H.O.U.L.) to Scream Street – a community of vampires, zombies, witches and more.

In Scream Street, Luke and his parents discover a nightmarish world of the undead. Luke soon makes friends with vampire Resus Negative and mummy Cleo Farr, but he remains determined to take his terrified parents home. After liberating the powerful book Tales of Scream Street from his new landlord, Otto Sneer, Luke learns that the founding fathers of the community each left behind a powerful relic. Collecting together all six is his only hope of opening a doorway out of the street, so with the help of Resus and Cleo he sets out to find the first one, the vampire’s fang. But with Otto Sneer determined to thwart him at every turn, will Luke even get past the first hurdle alive?

Blood of the Witch

Luke is back and on the hunt for the second relic in this spooktacular next instalment in the Scream Street series.

In Scream Street, discarded blood from cuts, grazes and nosebleeds is filtered out of the sewerage system and channelled to the vampire residents via taps in their kitchens. Urgh! In an underhand attempt to force Luke to return Samuel Skipstone’s powerful Tales of Scream Street, Sir Otto Sneer cuts off the blood supply to the house of Luke’s best friend, Resus Negative. Desperate for blood, Alston Negative, Resus’s father, enrages a group of sewer rats, inadvertently creating a swarm of vampire rodents which rise up out of the sewers to attack the residents of the street. Luke, Resus and Cleo must save Scream Street from the rats while searching for the second of the founding fathers’ relics, a vial of witch's blood – and without being turned into vampires themselves.
