Twilight isn't having a very good day. An experimental spell blew up in her face, an army of changelings is attacking Canterlot, and she just died. Yet somehow, it looks like it's going to keep going downhill from here.

Given the chance to correct what's gone wrong, Twilight swears she's going to fix all this even if it kills her. Which it will. Frequently.

What happens when you put a vampony, werewolf and a ghost all under the same roof among an unsuspecting Ponyville? Twilight Sparkle is determined to show Equestria that what goes 'bump in the night' deserves equal rights to ponies, too bad they don't believe in those old pony-tales.

Can a vampony, ghost and werewolf residence really work, especially when there are hunters among them that have dedicated their lives to eradicating all things supernatural? With blood lust, blood pressure and general social interaction being a factor, can they really do it? Or was this plan destined to fail the moment is was concocted?

Loosely based off of the ideas from the UK Drama 'Being Human.' No prior knowledge of the show is needed to enjoy this fic!

Becoming a princess means you get a lot of power. However, what happens when the power you have was obtained through dark means? Twilight battles with an inner force, driving her to a goal.
The question is... Which voice is best to follow?
Her Mentor's? Or the one that has led her this far?
