Rueben's Ramblings

The new Syfy thriller Van Helsing will air its double episode debut on September 23 at 10 PM.

The series revolves around unlikely heroine Vanessa Helsing (Kelly Overton from True Blood), who unexpectedly discovers that she holds the key to humanity’s survival: her own blood. Gifted with not only an immunity to vampires, Vanessa is also capable of taking out her bloodthirsty foes by turning them into humans with her bite. Now both prey and predator, Vanessa sinks her teeth into her role as humanity’s leader – and secret weapon – in their resistance against the vampires that plagued their world.

The cast includes Christopher Heyerdahl (Hell on Wheels), Terry Chen (Continuum), David Cubitt (Medium), Jonathan Scarfe (Ties That Bind), Laura Mennell (Alphas) and Paul Johansson (One Tree Hill).
