Drak plays the blood-sucking leader of Franky the bean-eating, explosively flatulent monster, Humper the hunchback, Wolfie the gay werewolf, and Mummy who has a strange profanity-spouting creature living in his belly. As the story begins, the creatures are trapped in the cave until Franky breaks hurricane-force wind that frees them to head for the nearby town of French Gulch, a burg that teeters on the brink of bankruptcy thanks to an enormous tax debt. The poor townsfolk only have one week to raise the fortune they need to save them. Fortunately, Franky and friends know where a secret stash of treasure is located and so go out to find it, using the old map they have in their possession. It leads them to a hotel where a masquerade party is in full swing. Things go well until Franky discovers that the kitchen is filled with his favorite food--canned chili....
