Bradys Beasts (2005)

Vlad is knocked into the bog by a strange bat-like creature, completely new to Ravenville. Brady's interest is piqued by a certain detail of Vlad's complaint. Brady believes they are dealing with a Weeper, a creature that makes people cry in order to collect their tears, basically a tear-drinking vampire! Little does Ember know, her new best friend Jenny is in fact the human version of this mysterious Weeper monster. Ravenville is harassed by the Weeper's creature version because it has to be mean to people to collect their tears. That is until Brady and friends demonstrate that tears of laughter are infinitely tastier. Naturally, Virgil serves as the butt of a joke so funny that everyone is crying from laughing so hard, proving to Jenny the Weeper she will never have a shortage of sweet-tasting tears of laughter as long as Virgil is around
