The Vampire and His Pleasant Companions Vol. 05

The late-night drama starring Al the vampire may have ended, but his career as an actor has only just begun. When Al is asked to reprise his role in the sequel (this time with filming done in America), he can’t help but jump at the opportunity. After all, a trip to the United States means a long-awaited chance to return to his hometown! But if he wants to secure the part, he’ll have to get through Akira first, and the gloomy embalmer doesn’t seem too keen on having Al’s face on the big screen again…
