Erica Jones is a main character in My Babysitter's a Vampire. She's Sarah's best friend and became a vampire in the film. She is a former love interest of Gord, however he backed off because Jesse was interested in her. She is Jesse's ex-girlfriend. As a human, she was a nerd and socially awkward. However, following her transformation, she became amazingly beautiful and full of herself, bullying people who are like she used to be. She is a fan of Dusk and the band Single Tear, and is a senior. Benny and Rory both have crushes on her. Benny first liked her when she was a human, and Rory only showed brief interest in her, only to begin pursuing her following her transformation.
Background
As a human, Erica was president of the Dusk Fan Club. She was a nerd and constantly bullied by head cheerleader Stephanie. Originally meant to be Jane's babysitter, she instead goes to a party with Gord in an attempt to prove to Sarah that she's not a good girl. There, Gord bites her and she later feeds on Rory after Sarah hesitates in doing so, becoming a fully-fledged vampire. After her transformation, Erica began to look down on inferior students, bullying people like she used to be. Erica has become much more popular with boys following her transformation and Benny and Rory are both interested in her. Later in the film, she battles Sarah, however at the end of the film, they make up.
Personality
Erica's personality in the film was geeky and nerdy, even kind. However, in the series she became more popular, and full of herself.
Under the influence of a love potion, she kissed Benny, and to get Rory to shut up, she said she would kiss him.
She almost kissed Rory, hinting a crush, however they were caught by the vampire nurse Anne when she opened the blood truck back doors.
Erica later drank Benny's blood and liked it; this leading Sarah to believe that Erica was developing a crush on Benny. Erica begins to help Sarah, Ethan, and Benny in their missions more in season two, than the first season. Her nerd past proves useful sometimes, as she's even brainier than the others, though she doesn't like being reminded of her past.

Relationships
Sarah
- Main Article: Sarica
See Sarica.
Benny
- Main Article: Bennica
Benny and Erica are not really in a relationship, due to her hatred of him, the 'vampire/mortal' problems, and the fact that Erica has left Whitechapel. Unlike with Rory, Benny is not solely interested in Erica, and has had crushes on other girls. Benny had a crush on Erica before she was transformed.
Rory
- Main Article: Rorica
She has a very confusing relationship with Rory, often arguing with or being mean to him, but she has shown a willingness to hang out with him on many occasions, even once kissing him. Erica and Rory tend to spend more time together than with any of the others, due to their lack of conviction for fighting the many undead and monsters. When Erica discovers that Rory also likes the band Single TeAr, she, for one minute, begins to talk to him excitedly about them, regaining her composure quickly after realising her slip-up. At the end of series two, the two of them are kidnapped by Anastasia (by her use of mind-control), and they escape destruction, so it is possible that they may begin/have begun a relationship following the end of the series.sucks
