Tonya is a vampire hunter. She appears in the What We Do in the Shadows TV series.
Biography[]
Tonya joined the Mosquito Collectors of the Tri-State Area, a secret vampire hunting group, despite her having never seen a vampire at the time. The other group members were Claude, Shanice, Derek and eventually the familiar Guillermo, who stumbled across the group by accident and decided to join in order to infiltrate them.[1]
At the group’s second meeting with Guillermo, the members discussed the house which Shanice believed to be one of the last known locations of Jenna, her friend who had become a vampire, and left in a van belonging to Derek’s mother to slay the residents inside. The club arrived at the house, which turned out to be a completely different home to the correct one (Guillermo's residence). The group snuck in, split up and discovered multiple sleeping residents, who suddenly awoke and revealed themselves to be vampires. Guillermo fought them off, killing several of them, and rescued Tonya, Shanice and Claude, but was unable to save Derek, who was taken by the vampires. The group drove away in the van in a state of shock.[2]
