Summary
As the monster-host of a late night horror show, John delights the neighborhood kids with his silly ghoulish antics - but his embarrassed 12 year-old son, Jack the Bear, is not amused. The other dysfunctional lunatics on the block, and his monster crush on the cute girl at school - don't make things any easier for Jack. But when a family crisis hits, will Jack's dad be able to lift the grown-up burden from his young son's shoulders?
