That's right, Los Angeles.
I'm finally ready to tell you.
I'm a vampire!
[music slows down]
[all screaming]
-[man 1] Vampire!
-[man 2] Vampire!
No, no, no, no, no, no, no!
-Get her!
-No, stop.
I'm a good vampire!
I promise.
I'm a good vampire. Really!
Whoa!
What a weird dream.
[Demi] I told you not
to eat those bugs before bed.
But, do you listen?
No.
Get out of my room, Demi.
Your favorite ghost boy
is helping you pack for boarding school!
Look, I got some things ready.
Fang-paste
Spider snack packs,
sunblock.
It's SPF 500
so you can go outside
-without turning into dust.
-[knock on door]
Vampirina, are you awake? Oh!
I can't believe
today's the day.
Our little Batkins
is leaving for school.
Now, why can't you stay
in Transylvania with us?
Young vampires
never leave Transylvania.
I don't wanna hide
in a castle for eternity.
I'm gonna make music
and connect with people!
And Wilson Hall has
the best music program in the world!
-Oh.
-Your father is just a little nervous
because the world
is full of humans.
Dad, don't be nervous.
If you get nervous,
I'll get nervous.
And when I get nervous, I--
Ugh, bats!
I need to show you something.
-Oh, please not the book--
-Demi, get me the book.
Ta-da!
See this?
All vampire hunters wear
a ring with their initials.
V.H. for Van Helsing, or--
[both] Vampire hunter.
Boris, you need to let her
spread her little bat wings.
Yeah, Dad.
Besides, not all humans
are Van Helsings.
[coughs]
My sweet spawn, I just don't--
I'm going away
to school in America,
and you will be
perfectly okay with it.
You almost had me. [chuckles]
Her little mind control
powers are getting so strong!
Aw!
Don't try that at that new school
in America that I'm okay with.
-[chuckles]
-[Boris] Wait.
What just happened?
Yes! In your fangs!
I totally vampired you.
I mean
thanks, Dad! Love you.
-Slay! ♪
-S-L-A-Y ♪
Stepping out
into the light ♪
I have never felt so alive ♪
Yeah, yeah, yeah ♪
S-L-A-Y ♪
Watch me shine,
shine, shine ♪
Slay! ♪
[upbeat dance music playing
over headphones]
Hey, you must be Sophie.
-[screams]
-[screams]
-[music stops]
-Whoa! You scared me!
What? Me? Scary? No.
I'm your roommate,
Vee Hauntley.
May we know each other
for many sunsets.
Thank you?
Were you making music?
Yeah! I like to do it
without instruments
or people.
I took this bed,
but if you wanna switch--
Oh, bat!
Is that Millie Eyelash?
I love her!
Part of the reason
I came to Wilson is because she went here.
I have the same
poster in my suitcase.
Surprise!
But! I'll get it later.
-[school bell rings]
-Oh!
It's time for
the first-year assembly!
You go! I'll catch up.
I just have to get rid
of some things I don't need.
[Demi mumbling]
Okay! I'll save you a seat.
Peekaboo! [laughs]
Get it? Because I'm a ghost.
Demi, what are you doing?
Besides rocking
this peacoat of yours?
Your dad sent me
to protect you from Van Helsings.
There are
no Van Helsings here.
I don't need any help.
Oh, yeah? What if
you accidentally fang out?
Your powers fritz
when you get upset.
My powers don't fritz!
A fritzer says what?
A fritzer says, get out!
Fine! I'm gonna go
sweep the campus for vampire hunters.
So everyone sees a glowy
ghost boy floating around?
Like that's gonna help, a lot.
I'll just cover up my glow
with this sweet, sweet coat.
Dang it!
My coat.
Thank you! You're, like,
the best roommate ever!
You're also my only roommate ever,
but you're seriously the best.
Thanks. Having zero
competition is kinda my happy place.
-[both giggle]
-First-years!
My name
is Dean Merriweather.
And I'm here to welcome you
to Wilson Hall Academy for the Arts.
Or as we like to call it,
[vocalizing] WHAA!
We call it that?
[both] I don't
wanna call it that.
-Jinx!
-A curse upon you as well.
Hi, I'm Britney.
I'm a first-year, although,
I know I look older.
-This is my friend Elijah.
-Nice to meet you!
Perhaps, our souls
have met before.
Excuse me?
Your soul just got here.
We'll be having
our First-Year Showcase tomorrow.
[both] A showcase?
-Yes!
-No!
Of course, we will crown one of the acts
our "First-Year to Watch".
And they'll get a trophy,
engraved with the names
of every past winner ever
who have all gone on
to great success.
Oh, but it's no big deal.
I heard Millie Eyelash won "First-Year
to Watch" when she was at Wilson.
My parents almost didn't
let me come here because of that.
They don't like pop music.
But my parents
talked them into it.
I'm a Wilson legacy.
My mom went here,
and my mom's dad,
and my mom's
dad's dad's uncle.
Every one of them
won the Showcase.
It's a huge competition
with some major stakes.
Stakes?
Can we use a different word?
No.
I'm nervous
about this Showcase.
I really
don't like performing.
We're at
a performing arts school.
Yeah, but I'm behind
the scenes.
Well, you know there'll be
at least one friendly face in the crowd.
It's me.
I'm the friendly face.
[chuckles]
Let's just agree
to stick together, no matter what.
Of course. Better together.
Wanna make it official?
Yeah! Do you wanna
swear an oath
in blood?
I was thinking pinky promise.
Sure. Who's pinky
should we get?
Uh, just link ours together
and shake them a little.
Oh, that's easier.
I've got your back.
-And I've got yours.
-[chuckles]
Hey, I forgot your names.
Anyway, Elijah and I
are forming an acapella group
that's totally gonna
win the Showcase.
I'm really sorry
you can't join, but
[plays harmonica]
I don't want you to! ♪
She doesn't speak
for all of us ♪
I thought we agreed I did ♪
I don't understand
what's happening ♪
You don't know
you're gonna win.
I sing and play
the spookylele,
and Sophie throws down rhythms
on her laptop.
Oh! Computer music, neat.
How strange.
Your words are nice,
but your eyes are mean.
It's not just her eyes.
Sophie is really talented.
She's got some amazing tracks.
In In fact
we're gonna
write a song!
And perform it together.
Right, Soph?
Um yes?
And we're gonna
win that trophy.
We just need
to blend our different styles,
get Sophie out on stage,
and learn how
to work together! I'm not nervous!
Oh, bats!
Uh
Well, she's a lot.
Anyway, Laptop.
You see this ring?
It was my grandfather's.
He gave it to me when I got into Wilson.
I have a family name
to live up to,
and nobody's gonna
get in my way.
[Demi gasps]
Her ring! She's a Van Helsing!
I have to warn Vee.
Whoops!
Sorry, buddy.
Slay ♪
-[guitar strumming]
-You're okay to do this?
You left the dining hall
so fast, I thought you saw a ghost.
There were no ghosts in there,
or anywhere.
Ghosts aren't real.
I know that.
Right. Uh
but I'm okay now.
Britney just kinda
got in my head.
But I should've sought your permission
before I formally declared our alliance.
I humbly beseech thee
for thy pardon.
[chuckles awkwardly]
I think that means
you're sorry, so granted?
To be honest though,
performing in front of people
isn't my first choice.
But, if you were there too,
maybe it won't be so bad.
I wouldn't want it
any other way.
Okay. I'll record your track
and play it back with my beats. Try it!
[upbeat music playing]
Amazing!
Boop.
Thanks for finding this spot
by the way.
-Nice acoustics!
-Right?
It's nice to have a space
all to ourselves.
-Can we share the room with you guys?
-Sure! Come on in.
Sorry.
I just say yes
before I think about it.
I get it.
You're a people pleaser.
But you need
to stand up for yourself.
Maybe you can learn
to say no sometimes.
[Demi] Psst.
It's me, Demi in disguise.
-We need to get out of here!
-No!
That is effective.
I'll work on it.
Or maybe I won't.
Just kidding, I totally will.
A one, two, three, four.
[upbeat music playing]
[both laugh]
Sophie, wake up.
I couldn't sleep all night.
Not because
I don't sleep at night,
but because I'm super excited
about our song.
[Demi] Sophie isn't here
right now.
Demi, you are such
a pain in the fangs.
There's a Van Helsing
at Wilson.
That girl Britney
is a vampire hunter.
I liked you better as a bunny.
I'm serious, Vee.
These humans are dangerous.
This place is dangerous.
This place is
where I need to be.
And these humans
are my friends now.
You're a vampire, you can't
be friends with humans.
I'm a musician!
And I'm following my dream.
Well, your dream is going
to get you vampire-hunted.
You can't stay here.
Yes, I can.
[snarls] My music slays.
And I'm gonna slay!
And nobody's ever
going to find out that I'm--
A vampire! [screams]
[screams]
You were saying?
Sophie!
Sophie?
I'm sorry I didn't
tell you my secret.
Oh. A secret, huh?
Oh
Britney.
I knew there was
something up with you.
You with your weird outfits
that you somehow make look fabulous.
I'm gonna
find out your secret.
[plays harmonica]
And I'm gonna
take you down ♪
Next time, you won't
see me coming.
I didn't see you this time.
[dramatic music playing,
Ludwig van Beethoven "Symphony No. 5"]
[music increases in tempo]
[grunts]
[grunts, screams]
-Whoa.
-Am I really that scary?
Sorry. I
I thought you were Britney.
Is she after you too?
What?
No, I just don't want her
to see me dancing.
It's kind of my little secret.
Why is being a dancer
a secret?
Well, my parents
are pretty old-school.
They sent me to Wilson
to study traditional vocal performance.
But, between you and me,
I love hip-hop.
-[chuckles]
-[both] Parents are hard.
Jinx, again.
And many curses
to you as well.
[chuckles] You're weird.
I like weird.
[chuckles softly]
I gotta go find my friend,
but you keep going,
you're a great dancer.
I'm just gonna disappear,
and it'll be like
I was never--
Never here. [chuckles]
-I've been looking for you everywhere--
-Stay away from me.
I can't believe
my roommate is a vampire.
I can't believe
vampires exist.
But you know what
upsets me the most?
You lied to me.
I thought we were friends.
I'm so sorry, but I had
to keep who I was a secret.
Historically, hanging out with humans
hasn't gone well for us.
There's more of you?
So, that glowy, floaty boy,
he's a vampire too?
Oh, no, no, no, no, no.
He's just a ghost.
There's ghosts?
That's Demi.
My parents sent him
to protect me.
He's kinda like a brother,
except I can't stand him.
Which, I guess makes him
exactly like a brother?
I'm glad
he's keeping you safe.
But what about me?
You said you had my back.
And before you try
to do anything to me,
just know I ate a ton
of garlic at lunch today.
I would never hurt you.
I do have your back.
Pinky promise.
[school bell rings]
There's the bell
for the First-Year Showcase.
We're in this together, right?
Not anymore, Vee.
You're on your own.
[door opens]
Sure.
Now she stands up for herself.
[group vocalizing]
Ooh ♪
[group vocalizing]
[applause]
You are smart,
and you are capable.
Thanks, Dean Merriweather.
I can really use the support.
Oh, I'm sorry.
That was for me, girl.
But, good luck!
Next up, we have
a Vee and Sophie,
and they're gonna perform
their song, "Supernatural".
I'd say good luck.
But I wouldn't mean it.
Excited to show the school
who you are?
Oh, I hope
that doesn't happen.
I mean, yup.
Still hiding your
secret talent from the rest of world?
That's the plan.
Go get 'em, weirdo.
I'm rooting for you.
[sighs]
Look
I know you don't
wanna talk to me,
and I know you're
not gonna perform with me,
but
I just wanted
to tell you that,
you're really talented.
Don't stay in the shadows.
[Merriweather
speaking indistinctly]
You're welcome, children.
[laughs]
Anyways, where was-- Oh, oh.
Um, okay, it looks like
Ms. Hauntley
will be performing her duet
by herself.
Okay.
[dramatic music playing]
[guitar playing]
[playing off-key]
[audience murmuring]
Sorry! I'm I'm used
to working with a friend.
Sophie
-Vee needs you.
-Do I know you?
-[gasps] Ghost boy!
-Shh!
Friendly ghost boy.
Look, I know you're scared,
but Vee risked her life
to come to Wilson.
Don't you think she might be
a little scared too?
[flatly]
I used to feel so alone ♪
[girl] You are alone.
I just
need a second.
[audience murmuring]
You know, if you
ever wanna lay some tracks
for a group that's really
going somewhere,
I could use a producer,
and you could stay backstage.
'Cause that's
your safe space. Right?
[murmuring continues]
No.
What did you just say?
No! That's not where
I wanna be anymore.
I wanna be out there
with my friend.
Sophie?
I got your back.
Let's do this.
Psst. I'm with them.
Turn it up!

[cheering and applause]
I can't believe
that just happened.
Believe it? They love you!
They love us.
[cheering and applause]
Oh, looks like we found
our First-Year to Watch!
Congratulations,
Vee Hauntley
and the friends
who were supposed to be part of the act
or maybe weren't,
I'm not sure.
But there you go. [chuckles]
[cheering and applause]
That was amazing!
I loved that so much!
No one tell my mom.
[chuckles]
[Demi] Bravo!
We did it!
First-year to Watch.
I'm so proud of you.
-Let's go!
-What?
Did you forget about
our Van Helsing problem?
Look! Her ring!
Nobody sleeps until we've
watched every Pentatonix video ever made!
Demi, that's not
a V.H. on her ring.
That's a W.H. for Wilson Hall.
Britney's whole family
went to Wilson.
It's a school ring.
It is?
Huh.
Gotta go!
You.
I've got something
to say to you.
-Good job.
-Wow!
Your words were nice,
and your eyes were nice too!
[plays harmonica]
Don't get used to it ♪
But, man, what a rush!
That performance
made me feel so alive.
Me too! Totally alive!
Very not dead.
Did I mention I'm alive?
Because she's
Living ♪
I say, we celebrate
with pizza.
Let me grab my jacket.
I love Pizza!
Who's Pizza?
It's food. Melted cheese
and red sauce on bread.
Mmm, you had me at red sauce.
[sighs] Why must you be
everywhere I go?
Uh, actually, we're going out
for pizza with Elijah.
-Do you wanna come?
-Yes, but because I like pizza,
not you two.
Pizza's a food!
We have to go find a special place
in our room for our trophy.
Mmm, be right back! ♪
Here we go
with the ring again.
Why does your mom
make you wear it all the time?
You know I can't tell you.
It's a family thing.
I have to wear it
because I'm a Van Helsing.
I don't know, Elijah.
You have more secrets than that Vee girl.
Everybody ready
for some red sauce?
