Season 1


Count Abdulla (2024) Count Abdulla (2024) [Season 1, Episode 1] Halaloween
Shown 20th November 2024

This is set in a city in England where vampires and South Asians co-exist. Well, the vamps prefer Muslim blood because religious Muslims are virgins until marriage.

Abdulla is a doctor in the local hospital, where he works with an all-POC team. He escapes from his mother's Eid party to attend his gal-pal's halloween party. They roast her ex-boyfriend, a CIS-het white man who came dressed as a redcoat. Apparently colonisation is bad ... unless it is South Asians colonising North Europe. Abdulla also gets roasted for coming as Dracula, since Vlad Dracul was a Hungarian warlord who prevented the Ottoman invasion of Europe.

While waiting at the bus stop dressed as Dracula, Abdulla gets called out for cultural appropriation by a dominatrix named Kathy ( Jamie Winstone ), who is actually a real vampire. Worse, he gets bitten and becomes a real vamp himself.
