When 15-year-old Priscilla's parents pass away, she has nowhere to go but to here last "living" relatives in the European town of Nachtwald. Once there, she learns that not only is Nachtwald populated by ghosts, werewolves, witches and other preternatural beings, but that her relatives are vampires. Amidst the pandemonium, she turns to her diary, and slowly learns what it takes to survive a new family, new friendships, and the anxiety of high school -- all while living in an unfamiliar world!
