Characters

Synopsis

SpongeBob and Patrick as vampires.

SpongeBob and Patrick are watching a horror movie with the Trawlers, but sympathize with the vampire antagonist over the main characters. SpongeBob and Patrick think about how cool being a vampire would be and ask Kidferatu if he can turn them into vampires, which he initially disagrees to. They beg him and he agrees to make them temporary, mortal vampires, shoving them into coffins and having them come out as vampires. Kidferatu teaches them the basics of being a vampire, from how to fly properly to transforming into a bat. SpongeBob and Patrick, as bats, repeatedly fly into a bug zapper and attract Mr. Krabs' attention.

Kidferatu brainwashes Krabs into being his thrall and makes him dance. Squidward comes out of the bathroom, so SpongeBob and Patrick hypnotize him. SpongeBob makes him smile, but is creeped out and asks him not to. He tells him to dance, and Patrick has Squidward dance to the kitchen and bring him a sandwich. However, Patrick cannot eat regular food as a vampire, needing to drink blood instead. Kidferatu tells them that they do not feed off their friends, and takes them to the first aid cabin, where they raid a refrigerator full of blood bags, where they drink and spray each other.
