Eine Feier im Haus des Vampirjägers. Friedhofsgärtner Schnuppermaul hat den kleinen Vampir und seine Freunde zu einer Kostümparty eingeladen, ohne zu wissen, dass er sich damit eine echte Vampirsippe ins Haus holt. Werden Rüdiger, Anton und Anna auffliegen? Derweil arbeitet Psychologe Dr. Schwartenfeger an einem Desensibilisierungsprogramm gegen Sonnenlichtangst. Rüdiger zögert, sich auf das Experiment einzulassen, aber eine alte Liebe motiviert ihn.

Rüdiger ist verliebt, und verliebte Vampire bringen Opfer: Wegen Olga, seiner Auserwählten, macht er sogar freiwillig bei den Psychotherapiesitzungen von Dr. Schwartenfeger mit. Mit einer Spieluhr und der Farbe Gelb wird gegen Rüdigers Sonnenphobie angegangen und der sonst so scheue Vampir gibt sich ganz hin... Dabei sollte Rüdiger besser aufpassen, dass er seinen besten Freund Anton nicht verliert! Für Katharina Thalbach ist es eine Herzensangelegenheit, den "Kleinen Vampir" zu lesen. Dieses Feuer spürt man in jeder Sekunde.

Was macht ein Vampir beim Psyologen? Dr. Schwartenfeger leitet nicht nur die Bürgerinitiative "Rettet den alten Friedhof", sondern hat auch einen unheimlichen Patienten in Behandlung: einen Vampir. Was hat er mit dem Patienten vor? Anton stellt Nachforschungen an: Schließlich muss er wissen, ob Dr. Schwartenfeger den Vampiren wohl gesinnt ist.

Der beliebteste Vampir aller Zeiten feiert seinen 40. Geburtstag! Anton liest für sein Leben gern Gruselgeschichten - vor allem über Vampire. Von einem Vampir wie Rüdiger aber hat Anton noch nie gehört. Ein richtig netter Vampir ist das, der da eines Nachts zu ihm durchs Fenster schlüpft. Wenn bloß Antons Eltern nicht so neugierig wären. Wie soll er ihnen erklären, warum sein neuer Freund nie den schäbigen schwarzen Umhang ablegt, immerzu eine Hand vor den Mund hält und dazu noch so merkwürdig riecht? Eine ungewöhnliche Freundschaft entsteht, die für absurde Abenteuer sorgt.

Anton hat einen höchst merkwürdigen Freund. Das meinen jedenfalls seine Eltern, die zum Glück keine Ahnung haben, wer dieser Freund in Wahrheit ist: ein kleiner Vampir! Rüdiger ist sogar ein ungewöhnlich netter Vampir, der Anton (fast) nie Angst macht. Trotzdem - so ein Vampirfreund kann einen schon in Verlegenheit bringen. Zum Beispiel, wenn er daheim "Gruftverbot" hat und deshalb umziehen muss. Aber ausgerechnet in Antons Keller?

Grausige Geschehnisse kommen ans Kerzenlicht... Noch immer haust der kleine Vampir in der Burgruine im Jammertal. Anton dagegen musste umziehen in den langweiligen Landgasthof von Frau Tugendhaft. Zum Glück kann er aber auch hier den wachsamen Augen seiner Eltern gelegentlich entkommen. Denn der kleine Vampir erwartet ihn bereits zu einer Vorlesestunde aus der Familienchronik. Anton soll endlich erfahren, was Vampirmädchen Olga in ihrem transsylvanischen Schloss erleiden musste.
