The story all started when Henry, Jessie, Violet, and Benny were all at the library checking out a book. The book was called “The vampire legend”. Benny, one of the Alden children, asked his brother Henry to read the book to him. Jessie, also one of the Aldens, told them that they had to leave because they were supposed to go meet Grandfather Alden at his friend’s house.

When they got there, Grandfather Alden introduced them to one of his friends, Charles Husn. Benny then pointed out that he was the “The Vampire Legends” author! Just as Benny said that Mr. Hudson was the author of the book a big blue car screeched into a halt in front of the house. A young man in a business suit came out of a car and hammered a “For Sale” sign into the lawn. Mr. Hudson said that that was his realtor. Mr. Hudson also said that his name was Josh, then Mr. Hudson told them to check out his backyard because they might find it peaceful and interesting.

Just as they were about to go out the back door Josh spoke up. He said that Mr. Hudson saw a vampire in the graveyard. Mr. Hudson said that was just a story, so the children went to the backyard. While they were looking at tombstones of some of the people that were buried there, Violet saw someone wearing a cape running away.

Mr. Hudson said during lunch that he wants to his “The Vampire legend” book to turned into a movie. But then he said that people were going to come and look over the house, so he could not go anywhere. The Alden’s said that they can look after the house. After a few days when they were coming to greet Mr. Hudson from his trip, they saw a police car going away. Mr. Hudson said that somebody snuck into his house. When they were there somebody was running away and one of the police officers ran after him. A few minutes later and the police came back to the house. It was Mr. Hudson’s brother in handcuffs! Mr. Hudson said that he was his brother and to let him go. Then Mr. Hudson’s brother, Francis, said that a long time ago they had a fight and He had run away. when he got older, he missed his brother and his house. But when he flew here he saw the “For Sale” sign and got angry. So, that why he pretended to be the vampire and apologized.
