Spinetinglers: The Vampire Circus

“Do you like Goosebumps? Do you want Spinetinglingly Scary Stories to read at night. Under the covers. In the dark?”

Spinetinglers takes place in a spookily similar reality to ours, but in Spinetinglers nothing is ever as it seems… Normal children find horrible things: monsters, ghosts, vampires and killer alien plants! In each situation, they must find a way out — from vampires that comes to town in a circus, to a new teacher who is an alien, to zombie invasions… in Spinetinglers, anything could happen!

The first instalment of "Spinetinglers," the Spine-tingling Spooky Short Dark Tales, Classic Horror Series, presents:
The Vampire Circus
When Sam and Kelvin find out a Circus is coming to their boring, uneventful town called Nowhere, they couldn't be more excited. In fact the whole town is a buzz.

But Sam is grounded and not allowed to go. The whole town is going. Except him. How unfair!

But maybe it’s a good idea he couldn’t go. There was something not quite right about it... maybe it was the strange, white-as-snow cloaked bald man that came into the Diner to put up the poster without saying a word… or the fact that they put the Circus up, secretly, in the middle of night, or… the fact that the Circus was in fact run exclusively… by Vampires!
