Summary:	Get ready for more spook-tacular fun and adventure with Drew (Wesley barker), Roland (Herbie Baez) and Jo (Brittany Konarzewski), the Charterville kids who can borg into their favorite comic book superheroes, THE BEETLEBORGS. The threesome's smarts and powers are put to the test when the Commissioner of Vampires (Alan Coates) arrives and threatens Flabber's (Billy Forester) frightful friend Fangula (Joe Hackett) with eternal retirement if he doesn't start acting more like a blood-sucking fiend. That's just the start of Fangula's troubles, for classroom nerd and determined vampire hunter Norman Nussbaum (Kristopher Kachurak) is ready to drive home his point - at Fangula's expense!
