Books like Fright Night by NOW Comics
Based on the 1985 film, Fright Night features Peter Vincent, a movie star, vampire hunter, and TV horror host, and his teenage monster‑hunter sidekick Charley Brewster. Together they confront a wide range of supernatural foes—including resurrected vampires, a squid‑man, a spider‑boy, a minotaur, aliens, and more—across two‑issue story arcs. The series also introduces Charley’s love interest Natalia Hinnault and her eccentric Aunt Claudia, who help form The Anti‑Monster Society to battle the vampire coven The Legion of the Endless Night. The ongoing tale was left unresolved when the publisher went bankrupt, with 22 monthly issues, 4 special 3‑D issues, and a stand‑alone adaptation of "Fright Night Part 2" released before the final storyline was abandoned.
