Answer: True

Sam and R.V. were invited by Darren to come and see the freak show and watch Darren perform on stage with Madame Octa. Sam loved the show, but R.V. seemed a little disturbed.
4. Book 1, "Cirque du Freak": Why did Mr. Crepsley think Darren would be fit to be his assistant?

Answer: He had good blood

After he had tested Steve's blood he knew his blood was evil. After Darren had came to Mr. Crepsley for help he decided that he would only help Darren if he got an assistant in return, and Darren was willing.
5. Book 2, "The Vampire's Assistant": Evra tries guarding Darren from the wolf-man and is brutally torn to shreds. True of false?

Answer: False

This is not true. Evra was at the cirque still performing his act. Mr. Crepsley came to Darren's rescue, not Evra. R.V. was torn to shreds.

Answer: pathologist

Jimmy Ovo is one of Mr. Crepsley's old friends that he thought had been killed by an enemy who had rammed a stake through his "rotten" heart. Mr. Crepsley encounters him and is surprised to see he is alive. Pathologists study the diagnosis of diseases after people have died.

Just when it was about to attack Darren, Mr. Crepsley comes to his aid, killing the wolf-man. Soon Mr. Crepsley manages to convince Darren to drink Sam's blood. Days later, Darren overcomes his fear of drinking human blood and has developed a liking for pickled onions.
