Synopsis:

A selfish loner named Kendrick vampire-proofs his house, getting ready for the Feast, a 12-hour period where vampires are free to feed on humans. Two strangers – Alexandra and her teenage son Chase – show up. Alexandra begs Kendrick to let them stay with him during the Feast. He tells them to leave, so Chase runs inside and refuses to get out. With no time to get Chase out of his house, Kendrick lets them stay but makes them help vampire-proof the house.

Kendrick starts to bond with Alexandra and Chase. The Emergency Alert System appears on TV, warning the nation the Feast is starting. Vampires reach Kendrick’s house. The traps work on the bloodsuckers, but vampires get inside. Kendrick flees with a bug-out bag, but he goes back and saves the family. Kendrick and the family survive until six the next morning when the Feast ends.

Potential: Feature script and/or series (TV or web)
