CW Pilot The Lost Boys.

Welcome to sunny seaside Santa Carla, home to a beautiful boardwalk, all the cotton candy you can eat and a secret underworld of vampires.

Is there where Sam meets Stella at her concession stand?

Produced by Veronica Mars and iZombie creator Rob Thomas, the series re-imagines the 1987 cult film The Lost Boys, which starred Jason Patric, Kiefer Sutherland, Jamie Gertz, Corey Feldman and Corey Haim, as an anthology-style series.

Each season would chronicle the same nest of vampires — who never grow up — in a new decade with new humans and a new setting.

Welcome to sunny seaside Santa Carla, home to a beautiful boardwalk, all the cotton candy you can eat and a secret underworld of vampires. After the sudden death of their father, brothers Michael (Tyler Posey) and Sam Emerson move to Santa Carla with their mother, Lucy (Kiele Sanchez), who hopes to start anew in the town where she grew up. But the brothers find themselves drawn deeper and deeper into the seductive world of Santa Carla’s eternally beautiful and youthful undead.
