The Vampire at Half Court

Watching this team of misfit monsters is a scream!

Basketball season has begun for the Scream Team but Dennis the Vampire can't seem to get any playing time. That may not be a problem for much longer because if the Scream Team can't find a sponser, they're going to be kicked out of the league. But how can any monster trust Dennis when he's seen meeting with the Vampire Team? During the championship game, Dennis earns everyone's trust back with a stellar performance. The crowd all chips in to help sponser the scrappy Scream Team.
