''Young Dracula'' is a British children's television series on [[CBBC]], loosely based on the children's book by Michael Lawrence. Directed by Joss Agnew, the first series was broadcast in 2006, and the second series, which started in late 2007, concluded in early 2008. After being cancelled and then uncancelled, the third series started in late 2011.
