Cast

Main trio

• Luke Watson (voiced by Tyger Drew-Honey), an adventurous teenage boy, who has just discovered himself to be an unstable werewolf whenever he gets angry.
• Resus Negative (voiced by Rasmus Hardiker), a sarcastic yet funny, "rockstar vampire", who does not have fangs, cannot change into a bat, and drinks tomato juice instead of blood.
• Cleo Farr (voiced by Tala Gouveia), a 4,000-year-old mummy, who befriends Luke and Resus, despite knowing that they are going to grow older without her.

Other residents

• Luella Everwell (voiced by Claire Skinner), Eefa's niece and Resus' admirer.
