Chaim Caan was out for a night of fun when he encountered a woman who turned him into a vampire. He is thrust into a world of mysticism and enchantment, navigating life as the newly undead and trying to reconcile his beliefs as an Orthodox Jew with the new reality. If he can come to terms with these changes, he might just find himself a hero.

Chaim Caan was out for a night of fun, blowing off some steam the way a young man will. After the better part of a year spent in COVID lockdowns, he was ready to let his hair down at a night club. But the young woman he encountered that night left him with something to remember her by: she turned Chaim into a vampire. Soon, Chaim finds himself thrust into a weird underground world of mysticism and enchantment as he navigates life as the newly undead, trying to reconcile his beliefs as an Orthodox Jew with the new reality that has been thrust upon him. He is forced to deal with a lot of change: to his body, to his mind, to his perceptions, to his relationships, and even to his world. He finds himself in parts of the world he had never dreamed of being in, and he finds himself doing things that he had never envisioned being a part of his life. And if he can come to terms with these changes, this mild-mannered young man might just find himself a hero.
