comment
The Goosebumps book where vampires need more than blood.Freddy Martinez and Cara Simonetti aren't afraid of anything. They're also two of the neighborhood's most popular babysitters, despite their penchant for scaring their charges with monster stories. Then one day, the two discover a hidden door in Freddy's basement. A door that leads to a room where the vampire Count Nightwing is sleeping. When they accidentally awaken him by opening his bottle of Vampire Breath, the pair are taken back in time to the Count's castle, where he intends to make them vampires too... just as soon as he can find his backup bottle of Vampire Breath so he can remember where he left his fangs! While he searches, Freddy and Cara search for the bottle too, in the hopes of using it to escape back to their own time before it's too late.It was adapted into the seventeenth episode of the second season of the TV series.It was reissued in the Classic Goosebumps line in 2011.

Does This Remind You of Anything?
 Vampire Breath / int_14ed6ab7
comment
Does This Remind You of Anything?: Freddy and Cara's relationship almost seems like a G-rated BDSM thing. At one point Cara punches Freddy so hard he sees stars, and he likes it.

Door Dumb
 Vampire Breath / int_23386799
comment
Door Dumb: A variant involving a window. Freddy and Cara are trying to escape from the castle, and they come across a window. They try lifting it up, and when failing to do so, they grab a nearby skillet and are prepared to smash it open. But then Freddy notices that the window pushes outward, so he drops the skillet and swings the window panes open for him and Cara to escape.

Tomato in the Mirror: Count Nightwing is Freddy's grandfather, meaning that Freddy is a vampire himself. His fangs just haven't grown in yet, and won't for another hundred years.

Would Hurt a Child: Count Nightwing tries biting Cara. He then realizes he doesn't have his fangs. Likewise he has no problems fighting Gwendolyn either, but then again she is a vampire too.

comment
Covers Always Lie: The cover shows Nightwing having hair, while in the book he is bald. Also, the bottle to Vampire Breath is shown to be green on the cover of the 2005 reprint, even though it is blue. The original cover actually has it as blue, which was changed for some reason.

comment
What Happened to the Mouse?: We don't see what becomes of Gwendolyn when she confronts Count Nightwing as Freddie and Cara use the opportunity to run when they have the chance. It's implied either Nightwing disposed of her or she fled when she realized he was too powerful.
