Synopsis of the Season 6 Premiere
In the first episode of season 6, the vampire household unexpectedly recalls a long-forgotten vampire named Jerry, who has been in a deep slumber since 1996, and they failed to awaken him as scheduled. This revelation sparks a sense of urgency among them to rouse Jerry, only for him to be disappointed upon awakening, discovering that none of his plans to expand their territories have been realized. He is particularly disillusioned to find that the formidable Nandor is now somewhat inept.
The second episode delves into Laszlo’s frenzied attempt to reanimate a corpse in a manner reminiscent of Victor Frankenstein, though his attempts prove futile unlike Colin, who successfully accomplishes the task with patience.
The finale of the premiere focuses on a powerful tool known as Sleep Hypnosis, a device capable of exerting influence over the vampires, as anything uttered during their slumber becomes ingrained in their minds, subsequently affecting their actions the following day. The introduction of Sleep Hypnosis leads to utter disorder among the vampires as each attempts to leverage it for their personal agendas. Guillermo finds himself a victim of this hypnosis, resulting in significant memory loss. However, Nandor vows to restore his memories the next day.
