When someone steals the ashes of Gothica City's vampire mayor, Werelock's mother is wrongly accused. Desperate to prove her innocence and bring the mayor back to unlife, Werelock and Scratch are launched into the ultimate treasure hunt.
All clues point to the mayor's long-hidden, dangerous mind-controlling potions. Our daring duo, along with you, dear listener, must race to find the potions before they fall into the wrong hands. Will Werelock and Scratch succeed, or will they fall into a villain's mind-control trap?
