Chased out of Transylvania by a mob of angry peasants, the Dracula family are forced to move to England. Vlad hopes it's a chance to be a normal kid but his new neighbour, vampire-obsessed Robin, is a long way from normal.

Vlad goes to school where the new woodwork teacher, Van Helsing, becomes convinced that Robin is a vampire. Believing that the Branaghs have reported him to the school authorities, the Count declares a feud.

Robin suspects that he and Vlad were switched as babies while the Branaghs were on holiday in Transylvania. Seeing an opportunity to get rid of Vlad, Ingrid sets about convincing the Count that it's true.

Vlad accidentally hypnotizes his father and decides to take advantage by turning him into a normal dad. He also hypnotizes Robin's parents into believing that they are vampires.

Vlad has toothache and is worried that it means his fangs are coming through. The Count tries to get rid of Ingrid by arranging a marriage for her, so she enlists Robin to pose as her boyfriend.

Vlad tries to stop his father from attending the school's Parent's Evening. Chandu, who was mummified 300 years ago, escapes from his imprisonment in the Count's basement and sets out to get his revenge.

Vlad's 13th birthday is interrupted by a surprise visit from his grandparents. Feeling that the Count is not upholding traditional vampire values, they decide the only solution is for Vlad to gain his full vampire powers early.

When cockroaches infest the Branagh house, the family is forced to move into the castle. But the Count is struggling with his peasant-free diet and the kids must stop him from biting Elizabeth.

Vlad wants to join the school rugby team, while Robin is determined to avoid it. Ingrid starts auditioning the boys at school, looking for a husband. Van Helsing sneaks into the castle, determined to get a photograph of vampires.

It's Father's Day and Vlad and Robin invite both their dads camping, in the hope that they'll be a good influence on each other but instead they end up competing. Meanwhile, Van Helsing tries to impress his new girlfriend.

Vlad and Robin accidentally unleash an ancient curse that will make the family normal. But if three screams are heard before midnight, the curse will be lifted and they will return to being vampires.

Vlad faces the first of his blood tests, an important exam that he must pass in order to gain his full vampire powers. Upset that he can't help Vlad with the test, Robin decides to try being normal and joins the school football team.

The Count decides that Vlad needs an evil stepmother and hosts a Hunt Ball to find a bride. Ingrid invites the Branaghs, who are unaware that they are on the menu and at midnight the vampires will be after their blood.
