The twins are travelling to Transylvania. Olivia's really nervous because she's meeting her vampire family for the first time (there's a lot at stake). Plus it doesn't help that she'll be there for Valentine's Day and her new boyfriend Jackson, the hot movie star, doesn't seem bothered that he won't be with her.
When a Hollywood strike puts Olivia's movie aspirations on hold, she distracts herself from thoughts of her long-distance actor boyfriend Jackson by throwing herself into organisation of the school dance. Little does she know, her twin Ivy is keeping a secret from her: she's off to The Wallachia Academy, the finishing school for vampires.
