Baseada no filme homónimo, What We Do in the Shadows é uma comédia que decorre na Nova Iorque moderna, centrando-se numa equipa que se encontra a realizar um documentário sobre a vida de três vampiros, colegas de quarto há centenas de anos.

Right out of high school, Sean Finnerty got his girlfriend Claudia pregnant. Now she’s his wife, and at just 32, he’s somehow found himself with 14-year-old daughter Lily, two little boys, and a constant struggle between his need to be responsible and his desperate desire to be irresponsible. His judgmental father Walt and devil-may-care brother Eddie are no help at all. When they all get together, stories always start to fly. Of course, Sean’s family will never let him finish a story; they interrupt, they debate, they derail, they defend themselves; just like any good family would.
