Joe is befriended by the town leader Judge Axel. Axel explains how the vampires came over at the time of the Pilgrims and decided to lead a life in secrecy here. He now wants Joe to write their history for them. At the same time Jeremy is seduced away by a vampire girl who looks his own age and soon decides that he wants to join the vampire society.
