AbstractHistoryArchive Description
'Ock Von Fiend lives on the outskirts of town and doesn't have many friends because, well, he's a vampire who tends to want to bite people. Luckily he has his teddy Van Munster (who has lately been possessed by a demon), the neighbourhood werewolf, his part-monkey undead grandfather, and his music to keep him busy. But that isn't to say that he wouldn't like to meet a nice lady vampire - know anyone? This playful and affectionate character study of Ock the lonely vampire is sumptuously illustrated with humorous and original characters by a talented new author.'
