Live. Laugh. Bite.
Alfie is not quite dead, and he’s going through some… changes.
As an A&E nurse, Alfie deals with horror everyday, but almost being killed by a walking corpse and being saved by a vampire takes things a bit far, even for him. The vampire is Casper. He’s hundreds of years old, and hell-bent on finding out what’s causing walking corpses to wander the streets of Alfie’s hometown.
Now they’ve met, Alfie and Casper can’t seem to leave each other alone, despite their best efforts. Alfie learns that the relationship between vampires and humans is more complicated than just predator and prey. Whatever Casper’s misgivings about his own kind, and himself, Alfie is inexorably drawn closer and closer, in a heady, carnal blend of horror, hunger, love and lust.

Casper has put so much at risk to be close to Alfie and has saved his life so many times; it’s impossible for Alfie not to see the good in him. But the more Alfie understands about the world of the vampires, the more complicated his feelings about Casper become.
The show begins with Casper having left Alfie behind, apparently to try to stop something horrible from happening, though Alfie has no idea what. Without Casper’s vampire blood, Alfie is slowly succumbing to injuries from another attack by the half-made. He has just enough of Casper’s blood to last a few more agonising weeks. Or, he could drink it all at once, and try to become a vampire.
The change is not straightforward or guaranteed, and without Casper’s help, it’s almost certain it’ll kill him. But it might be the only way Alfie has to get answers about the half-made, about who let them out onto the streets of his hometown, and about Casper.
