Plot[]

The two twelve year old half-vampire sisters Silvania and Dakaria Tepes move from Transylvania to a small German town, together with their father Mihai (a vampire) and their (human) mother Elvira. This is a culture shock for the two very dissimilar sisters. While Darkaria does not fit in the human world, Silvania is enjoying her humanness. In the school they find no right connection, although between Jacob and Silvania, a little romance seems to develop. The hard of hearing Helene, who hides her disability however is Darkaria's only friend.

Dirk van Kombast, a neighbor of the family, finds something wrong with its neighbors and orders himself Vampire Hunter equipment over the Internet. When finally even Dakarias flight competition to fail is doomed because she has not enough air force as a half-vampire and Jacob because of the acute danger of sunburn, Silvania cannot visit the swimming pool, the two want to change their situation. By chance, they discover Schick, which can meet them a heart's desire in the shop of Ali. Although he warns them that the wishes are dangerous, but the two are sure: Silvania wants to become a real human, Dakaria a real vampire. But Ali bin accidentally swapped the wishes of Schick.

So there are numerous complications: Silvania wants to drink blood of Jacobs, Dakaria is being bullied by the bullies of the school and can not defend themselves. They are desperately looking for Ali bin Schick. His grandson, Ludo, coincidentally a classmate of the two, is the formula for an antidote. To achieve this, they need a flower, picked only at midnight and servers allows a new passion. Along with Helene, that initiate them after a brief interlude in their secret, searching for the flower on the cemetery. But Dirk van Kombast comes to them in the way. Eventually they succeed but with the help of Ludo, who turns out to be visionaries, to overcome Dirk and grab the flower. The two have learned from their cause and return to half vampire.
