If you’re a fan of FX’s “What We Do In the Shadows”, Syfy is taking a stab at their own vampire comedy that has a more dramatic spin.

Spider-Man‘s Jacob Batalon is set to star in the tentatively titled “Reginald the Vampire”, a dramedy in the works at Syfy based on Johnny B. Truant’s Fat Vampire book series, says Deadline.

“The series is set in a world populated by beautiful, fit and vain vampires.

“Reginald Baskin (Batalon) tumbles headlong into it as an unlikely hero who will have to navigate every kind of obstacle – the girl he loves but can’t be with, a bully manager at work and the vampire chieftain who wants him dead.

“Fortunately, Reginald discovers he has a few unrecognized powers of his own. A new show with a lot of heart and just enough blood, ‘Reginald the Vampire’ proves the undead life is just as complicated as life itself.

The series, which hails from “Chucky” and “Twin Peaks” showrunner Harley Peyton, received a straight to series 10-episode order.

Following the harrowing events of “Pretty Little Liars: Original Sin,” our Pretty Little Liars face a fate worse than death – summer school. However, Millwood High isn’t the only thing getting in the way of their fun summer jobs and new, dreamy love interests.

A new villain, who may or may not have a connection to A, has come to town and is going to put them all to the test.

Bailee Madison, Chandler Kinney, Zaria, Malia Pyles, and Maia Reficco return as the next generation of Pretty Little Liars.

The series also stars Mallory Bechtel, Sharon Leal, Alex Aiono, Jordan Gonzalez, and Elias Kacavas.
