Today is the 23rd December, today would've been Corey Haim's 40th birthday.

This fan fiction is dedicated to him.

RIP Corey Haim.

Please review.

Sam Emerson, to the world he was just another normal person.

He lived with his mum, his brother and his grandfather.

He owned a dog and watched MTV.

He liked to go to the boardwalk and meet his friends.

Nobody would've suspected that he was anything out of the ordinary.

In reality, he's far from it.

His mum dated a head vampire and very nearly became one herself.

His brother used to be a half vampire and still has occasional aggressive moments.

His grandfather, a taxidermist who flirts with his neighbors.

Nanook, the vampire hating Alaskan Malamute.

MTV, he can't actually watch that any more because his grandfather doesn't have a TV but at least he can read the TV guide.

Doe's Sam still seem like a normal person to you? No?

Who said it's bad not to be normal?

In fact, it's good not to be normal!

Normal people are all the same, boring.

Weird people are unique.

Unique is good.

Sam's friend's are definately unique.

Edgar and Alan, the Frog Brothers. Comic book store owners by day and vampire hunters by night.

Most people avoid Edgar and Alan because they're "not normal".

To Sam they're some of the most special people in the world.

Without them, he'd probably looking for somebody to have as his next meal with his bloodsucking brothers.

When he first met the Frog Brothers, why didn't he run away like most "normal" people would?

Why didn't he throw away that comic book they gave to him?

Why didn't he tell them to 'Get lost' when they told him vampires were real?

All good questions, all with good answers.

Sam is not normal.

Sam is unique.

Sam is nice.

Sam is kind.

Sam is good.

Sam is cool.

Sam is open-minded.

Sam is awesome.

As you've established, Sam is many things.

Is Sam bad?

That's a question you'll have to answer for yourself.

What do you think?

Sam keeps secrets from his mother.

Sam swears.

Sam decides to try some of that strange plant his grandfather grows outside the kitchen.

Doe's that mean he's bad?

Of course, it doesn't!

Sam is still not normal.

Sam is still unique.

Sam is still nice.

Sam is still kind.

Sam is still good.

Sam is still cool.

Sam is still open-minded.

Sam is still awesome.

David drinks blood of humans, doe's that make us like him any less? Well it might if you're a vampire hunter or a human.

Edgar and Alan stake vampires, doe's that make us like them any less? Well it might if you're a vampire.

But you get my point.

Don't judge anybody by what they wear, what they say or what they do.

Edgar and Alan have to judge people like that, it's their job to as vampire hunters.

Sam has now joined them too.

Every night, he has to sneak out of his house without his mum knowing so he can sneak out to the comic book shop.

The Frog Brothers eagerly wait for him with their weapons ready.

Ready to hunt, ready to kill.

They're fighters for truth, justice and the American way.

And so is Sam.

Together they are the worlds best monster hunters, protecting everybody from the evil that lurks during the night: flesh eaters, the blood suckers, the monsters that hide under your bed.

Edgar heard the front door to the shop open and he walked around the corner to see his best friend dressed in his vampire hunting gear.

'You ready?' he asked Sam.

Sam grinned at him and replied 'I was born ready!'

Thanks for reading. RIP Corey Haim, December 23rd 1971- March 10th 2010.
