Guided by Bones McStraw, a theatrical scarecrow narrator who speaks in rhyme, the children discover they've wandered into the haunted home of Reila (formerly known as Belle) and Victor (the Beast), who have embraced their ghostly afterlife with surprising enthusiasm. The mansion is also home to a cast of eccentric spectral servants: Lumiere, the dramatic teacup master with a flair for musical numbers; Mrs. Cogs, who conducts furniture like an orchestra; and Shade, a modern ghost obsessed with creating the perfect spooky atmosphere.
