NIGHT BITERS tells the story of 16-year-old Jamilah and her 14-year old brother Omari, when the two arrive in the city of Oakland, CA to stay with their aunt and uncle, a mysterious stranger gives Omari a magical compact disc and crucifix. Upon listening to the CD the siblings learn that the lyrics and the crucifix can aide them against the danger of vampires. But danger has never been as attractive as the handsome and charismatic heartbreaker Tyrone, or as beautiful and deadly as the vengeful Jennifer. Soon the siblings find themselves in twined with rival gangs, the Crimsons and the Cobalt’s. Their leaders transformed into vampires whose hatred for another threatens to destroy the city. Fasten your seat belts, you’re going to a place bustling with taggers, skaters, gangs, girls that literally kick butt, hip hop and vampires.
