Some vampires are destined for greatness. Herb Knudsen isn't one of them.
 

When truck-stop diner cook and mediocre bowler Herb Knudsen becomes a vampire, his once simple life gets a bit more complicated.
 

Herb’s not even sure how it happened. He wasn’t bitten by a vampire, which means there’s no one around to help him learn the ropes. With no one to guide him, Herb fumbles into his newfound abilities, courting disaster with every step.
 

Despite learning each new lesson the hard way, being a vampire isn’t all bad. He’s stronger, a little sexier, and a heck of a lot better at bowling. Even Lois, the girl of his dreams, is starting to notice him. But he can’t drink beer, the bodies are piling up, and his best friend Dallas isn’t just getting suspicious - he’s getting jealous.
 

When Lois is caught in the middle of the two friends' escalating rivalry, keeping his dark secret becomes the least of Herb's concerns.
 

Booze, bowling, bake sales, bar fights, babes, blood, and karaoke.... Who would have thought that being undead would make life so exciting?
