Vampire hunting is an occupation as old as well, vampires. From Van Helsing to Buffy the Vampire Slayer, we have our tough fighters who make it their mission to prevent vampires from taking over the world. And now, there’s a new vampire hunter in town to help keep us safe from the blood-sucking beings.
Day Shift follows Bud, a hardworking blue-collar dad who just wants to provide for his quick-witted eight-year-old daughter, but he is living a double life. His mundane Valley pool cleaning job is a front for his real source of income which is hunting and killing vampires as part of an international Union of vampire hunters.
