Scaring up a few good screams is all in a night's work for the employees at Monstropolis' Scare Factory -- and nobody does it better than Sully and his best buddy Mike. It's dangerous work because there's nothing monsters fear more than a human child. When one of these terrifying creatures ends up back in Monstropolis, it's up to the buddies to get her home without getting in trouble ? but they'll have to foil a dastardly plot first. Big, good-natured Sully and tiny, excitable Mike are a perfect team of odd-couple pals, who find that adorable little girl Boo changes everything they thought they knew about humans and monsters alike.
