Charles and Liz are a vampire couple whose once-passionate romance has devolved into a pulseless marriage after 500 years together. Living in present-day Seattle with their oddball coven, they've settled into an eternal rut β until their daughter Emma's earnest human boyfriend, Max, unexpectedly enters their lives and forces them to confront whether their love can survive forever... or if forever is a life sentence. Max finds his world turned upside down after he discovers the truth about Emma's mysterious family.

Max and Emma try to process their new reality, Charles attempts to make a new friend at work, and the coven comes together in a crisis.

The coven throws an initiation party for a new vampire and invites prominent members of their community, including Aldrict, a troublemaker who has history with Liz. Also, Jesse's vampire origin story is revealed.

Up for a promotion at her teaching job, Liz invites her boss and his wife over for drinks on Halloween, when they arrive dressed in stereotypical vampire costumes, much to Charles' annoyance. Also, the coven fears Max has placed them in danger of a werewolf attack when he inadvertently uses an ancient protective relic as a candy bowl for trick-or-treaters and it goes missing.

Max invites Steve the Blood Guy over for game night, a kind gesture that inadvertently leads Steve to decide to leave Seattle β and sends the coven on a desperate hunt for a new blood supply; Liz and Phyllis wrestle for control of the house's interior design.
Jesse contemplates whether it's finally time to tell Phyllis his secret; Max and Emma navigate their first big relationship hurdle.
The coven works together to try to find Phyllis, who has gone missing; Max takes a mandatory class for new vampires.
