The Hansen kids are in a jam. Adam (Matt O'Leary) and his best friend Duffy (Jake Epstein) have gotten their hands on some tickets for the Headless Horseman concert, and his sister Chelsea (Laura Vandervoort) has a date with her dreamy boyfriend Peter. The only problem is they are both grounded. Chelsea and Adam will do whatever it takes to get their mom Lynette (Caroline Rhea) out of the house, even if it includes a chance meeting with a very mysterious man. Everything seems to go according to plan until their little brother Taylor (Myles Jeffrey) realizes that this stranger might be a vampire.

His brother or sister don't believe Taylor so he calls Malachi Van Helsing (Robert Carradine), the vampire hunter. The night that their mom goes out with Dimitri (Charles Shaughnessy), the vampire, Taylor follows them. Not wanting their mom to come home they follow Taylor and find him outside the restaurant that Lynette and Dimitri are at. Adam and Taylor make the vampire do the spoon test.

In the end Taylor becomes Van Helsing's partner and they arrive to do battle with Dimitri who has Lynette in a trance but even together Taylor, Adam, Chelsea and Van Helsing are unable to defeat Dimitri. Dimitri goes to bite a powerless Adam but he and Chelsea call out to Lynette breaking her trance and she throws Dimitri into his coffin. Van Helsing seals it with silver-plated nails and explains that he plans to send it around to places where it's always sunny. In the end they all decide to go back to the Hansen house for breakfast as the sun is finally rising.
