‘Fright Night: Origins’ – Tom Holland Returns With Brand New ‘Fright Night’ Novel!

As you may recall, we had learned several years back that writer/director Tom Holland was working on a sequel to his 1985 vampire movie Fright Night, which was taking the form of a novel rather than a feature film. What’s the latest on that? Well, Holland’s sequel tale hasn’t yet been told, but this week we’re hearing that it’s definitely still on the way soon.

In the meantime, Holland is back with a novelization of the original movie titled Fright Night: Origins, and the eBook and Paperback versions of the book are AVAILABLE NOW!

The Hardcover version of Fright Night: Origins will release on October 14, 2022.

From Holland House in association with Encyclopocalypse Publications and co-written by A. Jack Ulrich, Fright Night: Origins expands upon the story of teenage horror-film junkie Charley Brewster, who becomes convinced that his reclusive new next door neighbor Jerry Dandridge is a vampire.

Unsurprisingly, his friend Edward and girlfriend Amy don’t believe him. But when strange events begin to occur, Charley has no choice but to turn to the only person who could possibly help: washed-up horror host and self-professed vampire killer Peter Vincent.

Fright Night: Origins is the first book in a planned trilogy of books, which will expand upon the Fright Night universe.

“A couple years ago I sat down to write a novel of my original story Fright Night, but as I came close to finishing, I realized I had so much more to tell,” says Holland. “There were elements I was not able to convey in the original film because of time constraints, and I was compelled to take us back to the origins of Fright Night and beyond.”

“I’ve written something I truly hope the fans of Fright Night will love and intend to take the Fright Night universe far beyond the story the films have told,” says Holland. “This story and the characters are deeply personal to me, and I hope the fans have as much fun reading it as I did writing it. Fright Night forever!”

Added co-author Ulrich, “Tom and I had been friends for about twelve years when I pitched him the idea for a graphic novel called Fright Night Dystopia, which centered on Charley Brewster’s life after the events of the first film. While that story remains untold, it began a series of exchanges that ultimately saw me contributing to a new Fright Night. Growing up as a fan of Fright Night, I never conceived that I would lend my voice to its continued legacy. These things just don’t happen.”
