REGINALD THE VAMPIRE Coming to SyFy in October – Adam Lastiwka Scores the Series

In a world populated by beautiful, fit, and vain vampires, Reginald tumbles into it as an unlikely hero who will navigate every kind of obstacle and discovers he has a few unrecognized powers of his own.

Premiering October 5th on SyFy, REGINALD THE VAMPIRE is based on Johnny B. Truant’s Fat Vampire book series. The 10-episode series follows unlikely hero Reginald Andres as he stumbles into the life of the undead. The show is created by Harley Peyton (CHUCKY, DRACULA [2013], TWIN PEAKS, BANDITS) and stars Jacob Batalon (Ned in MCU’s SPIDERMAN series, as Reginald), Em Haine, and Rachelle Goulding.

Composer Adam Lastiwka, a Canadian-born composer, producer and multi-instrumentalist, is scoring the series. He has written music for more than seven hundred episodes of television as well as an extensive series of films, video games and albums; most notably he has worked with Imagine Entertainment (Ron Howard and Brian Grazer) writing music for the hit series THE ASTRONAUTS as well as Microsoft and Coalition Studios for their first Xbox Series X Release Gears 5: Hivebusters and the Netflix series TRAVELERS from Stargate creator Brad Wright.
