quote:
Walking to the front of the building, you complain, “I’m dying of thirst.”
“Quit talking about death,” orders Gabe.
There’s a buzzer outside the office. Gabe pushes it.
Instantly, the office door swings open. A light comes on inside.
You peer in and see a small waiting room. At the back is another door. The sign on the second door says NO ADMITTANCE.
But there’s no one in the office.
“Who opened the door?” you wonder.
Gabe whispers, “If this were a movie, I’d be screaming, ‘Don’t go inside, dummy!’”
You must be a dummy. You step inside.
quote:
CLICK! CLICK! CLACK!
“What’s that sound?” you whisper.
“It’s my knees knocking,” Gabe explains. “This place is terminally creepy. Let’s just book home, tell your parents the whole story, and let them deal with it.”
“No way!” you declare. “I’m staying till I get what I came for.”
As you bicker, the back door opens. A short, pudgy man walks into the office.
“Well, well,” he says, giving you a fatherly smile. He doesn’t look scary at all. “You must be the one who called. About Vampire in a Can?”
You nod and start to answer, but he keeps talking.
“Fine. Glad you found us so easily. I’m Herman Carmine. Come with me,” he says, jerking his head toward the NO ADMITTANCE door. “We’ll fix you up in no time.”
Gabe steps forward.
“Not you,” the man says firmly to Gabe. “You stay here.”
quote:
“Don’t go,” Gabe whispers loudly. “It’s a trap!”
Carmine squints at you. “Look,” he snaps. “You came here for help. Do you want it or not?”
“Uh, yeah,” you say. But you whisper to Gabe, “If I’m not back in ten minutes, come looking for me.”
“Are you nuts?” Gabe whispers back. “If you’re not back in five, I’m calling the police!”
You nod. Then you follow Carmine through the NO ADMITTANCE door.
It leads into a long, dark, twisting hallway.
“Where are we going?” you ask anxiously.
“That’s for me to know and you to find out,” Carmine says with a cold laugh.
Uh-oh. I don’t like this, you think.
Carmine opens a door leading into a cavernous space. The warehouse. The only light comes from some dim red bulbs.
At the far end of the room, you see a row of coffins!
quote:
“In here,” Herman Carmine says, motioning for you to come in.
“How stupid do you think I look?” you sputter. You turn and run. Back through the twisting hallway. Back to the office where you left Gabe...
Except – there’s no Gabe.
Where is he? Did he get scared and leave?
No. He’d never leave without you. He’s a loyal friend. Usually.
Did he come looking for you?
But you weren’t even gone five minutes.
Without warning, the NO ADMITTANCE door slams behind you. Then you hear a scream. You’d know that scream anywhere! It’s Gabe’s!
Oh, no! Gabe didn’t leave. He was kidnapped!
Gabe was right. You walked into a trap. You brought these vampires some fresh blood!
What do I do now? you moan softly.
If you search the building for Gabe, turn to PAGE 104.
If you go home to get help, turn to PAGE 10.

quote:
In a panic, you pick up a chair. You hurl it through the window of the NO ADMITTANCE door. Then you reach through the broken glass and unlock the door from the other side.
You’ve got to find Gabe. No matter how dangerous it is, you’ve got to find your friend – and fast!
You hurry down the long, twisting hallway. Shattered glass crunches under your feet. In the dark, you sense the right direction. Toward the door that Carmine opened. The one leading to the coffins.
Vampires sleep in coffins, you think, as you near the door.
You slowly turn the knob.
SQUEEK! Uh-oh! Are the door’s hinges rusty? No, it’s only a mouse.
The door opens noiselessly.
You lift your foot and step across the threshold. But as you put your weight down, the wooden floor gives way.
And you start to fall!
quote:
A trapdoor! “Nooooo!” you scream.
You’re falling!
You plummet through musty-smelling air for a few seconds. Then – THUD! You land on a soft, damp pile of earth.
It’s pitch-dark. You feel around. The room is small. Its walls seem to be made of rough stone. No windows.
At last, your fingers find a wooden door. You try the knob. Yes! It turns!
When the door opens, you hear voices. Laughter.
Your legs tremble with fear, but you force yourself to move. You step through the door – and gasp.
Before you is an enormous hall.
Filled with vampires!
quote:
All heads in the room turn toward you.
“Welcome,” a woman calls out. She’s wearing a long red velvet gown. “We’ve been expecting you.”
Everyone smiles at you. Their fangs glisten.
You can’t speak. Can’t run. Can’t do anything except take in the horrible scene.
The room is stuffed with coffins, candelabras, and vampires. Some of them are lounging in their coffins, reading magazines and newspapers. A few hang upside down from the rafters, like bats.
“How lovely of you to join us,” the woman coos. “I’m Countess Yvonne. Won’t you come in and have something to drink?”
She sweeps her arm toward a huge stone table. On it are silver goblets filled with a red liquid.
“No, thanks,” you say. “Where’s Gabe? What have you done with him?”
“We’ll answer all your questions,” Countess Yvonne replies. “But first – have one drink.”
If you drink the red liquid, turn to PAGE 49.
If you refuse, turn to PAGE 5.

quote:
Drink the red liquid in one of those goblets?
You think: Rule one: Never take candy from strangers. Rule two: Never take blood from strange vampires.
But you suspect that the liquid in those goblets will really quench your thirst.
“All right,” you agree, walking to the table.
You lift a silver goblet to your lips. You swig it down. But it tastes terrible.
“Yuck!” you exclaim. “That’s not blood! What is it?”
“Vampire medicine,” the countess replies. “To keep you well while you’re asleep. Asleep for a hundred years!”
She leans toward you. “Sleep,” she coos. “Sleep.”
You stare into her eyes. Oooohh! You feel so heavy. So drowsy...
The countess is hypnotizing you!
Your legs wobble. Then you slip to the ground. A vampire carries you to a black coffin. He lays you in it.
“Sleep, my friend,” he murmurs and reaches for the coffin lid.
quote:
“Wait,” the countess calls. Her face looms over the coffin. “I promised to answer all your questions.”
Groggy, you manage to ask, “Why?”
“That Vampire in a Can idea was a mistake,” the countess explains. “You see, we thought we needed some ‘young blood.’ But you kid vampires! You’re too good at finding victims. Soon, there’ll be more vampires than humans. So I’ve decided to put the young ones on ice. Don’t worry, though. You’ll have your turn – one day.”
“Gabe?” you mumble as if calling his name in a dream.
“Oh, Gabe?” the countess explains. “We drank his blood. He’s in the coffin next to yours. Now, sleep tight, dear.” She laughs a silvery laugh. “And don’t let the coffin-bugs bite!”

quote:
The red liquid gleams. A vampire places a plastic straw in one of the goblets and holds it toward you. “Sip?”
You lick your dry lips.
You’d die for a gulp.
But you swallow hard and shake your head.
You can’t let yourself drink it. If you do, and it’s blood – and you know it’s blood – you’re pretty sure you’ll be a vampire forever. And forever is a long time.
“No,” you repeat. “I’ll pass on the blood!”
“I’m sorry you feel that way,” Countess Yvonne says.
She gives one short nod to the others. Then they glide toward you. Closing in on you.
In desperation, you search for a weapon. But the only thing you see are the goblets of blood.
Frantically, you dart to the table and lift a goblet. You toss the whole glassful of liquid into the countess’s face!
quote:
“You wretch!” the countess screams. “What have you done?” Her terror-filled voice stuns you.
Blood splashes across her face and runs down her neck.
It’s just blood, you think. Isn’t that what she drinks?
But you quickly understand. The sight of blood has driven the other vampires into a frenzy.
They rush over to her and attack – by licking her face! They slobber at her cheeks, her neck, her eyes and nose.
The countess screams, sinking to the floor.
Are they going to eat her? Your stomach turns. You feel faint.
And worst of all, you feel thirsty. Part of you wants to join them – to lick up the blood too!
No, you tell yourself. Now’s your chance to get away!
If you want to escape from this place, turn to PAGE 79.
If you want to lick up the blood, turn to PAGE 110.

Running away is obviously the right choice but I'd be lying if I said I wasn't curious what the consequences are for licking blood off the other vampire's face in the middle of a blood induced frenzy.

As far as "stop the story, break the fourth wall" endings go, that wasn't too bad.
This was the first book in the series I read. Still have it on my bookshelf. It's way less scary, now that I'm not ten.
