Thomas, a ranch manager, navigates the bizarre and often dangerous world of critter monsters in the Appalachian Mountains. From fiery cockatrice jambalaya to a Sasquatch-armadillo-skunk ape rampage, he and his employee Jamie are constantly on the run from unexpected mayhem. The story intertwines with mythical creatures, humorous redneck culture, and a darkly comedic tone as they deal with possessed jelly donuts, drunken leprechauns, and a sea dragon's surprising sexual capabilities. It’s a wild ride of absurd scenarios and bizarre encounters with a touch of existential dread, all set against the backdrop of a rescue ranch for mythical creatures.
