Tensions rise in a Monster Metropolis when spooky things start to happen to its citizens! Will they solve the mystery before ancient rifts tear the community apart?

Deep beneath the human world lies Scare City, the hub where all the ghouls, ghosts and goblins dwell in perfect harmony. It took the monsters centuries to overcome their differences and live together in peace.

Tensions rise between clans when a mysterious light begins to steal people in the night causing Scare City to fall back into the hands of angry, pitchfork-wielding mobs! Its fate rests, unexpectedly, in the hands of a compassionate Zombie-Witch baker, Gina, who doesn’t want to see her home torn apart. Gina and her crew of spooky friends will do whatever it takes to solve the mystery and bring everyone together once again.
