He's the adorably monstrous creation of Professor Erasmus Erasmus, a man who has breathed life into over three hundred creatures with all manner of fangs, tails, and eyes. But as good as Erasmus is at giving life, he's equally bad at taking care of it. And so the duty falls to Stitch Head to ensure his siblings don't tear Castle Grotteskew apart. Despite having a handle on the threats within the castle, however, no one is prepared for the conniving Mr. F--the ringleader of a traveling circus of wonders and oddities--to show up at Grotteskew's front door.
