Once upon a time (actually just 2015 to be precise) in a world much like our own (because it is our own world, just with a humorous twist), there lived a Mummy, a Zombie, and a Werewolf. As far as they knew they were the only horrory creatures on the face of this planet, and they really liked it that way. No other horrory being would ever come around their lair to bother them, and even the regular humans left them alone.

The last person who had tried to disturb them was an overly pushy Jehovah's witness who just wouldn't get his foot out from between the door... so Zombie had gnawed his foot off. After that incident nobody came around anymore. However, the humans didn't call the cops on the horrory trio either because they were glad enough someone had taken care of that pushy Jehovah's witness.

From their evil lair, the Terrible Trio travelled the world, scaring the living shit out of everyone they ever ran into. But after about a year, they returned home, having no one left to scare.

One day, the Terrible Trio were just hanging around in their lair (although lair makes it sound worse than it is; it's really more of a hobbit hole, just evil) being absolutely bored to death. After all, what could they possibly do now that the whole world had been thoroughly scared by them... until...

"Hey guys..." Zombie yelled from the computer corner, "Check this out!!!"

Mummy and Werewolf got up with a sigh and looked over Zombie's shoulder to see what she was pointing out. It turned out to be an article about a bunch of people who called themselves the Buckingham Palace Guards, who were rumoured to never be scared of anything (to the point of unmovingness even)... ever!

"This is just too good to be true," remarked Mummy. "Surely we have managed to scare every single human being in this world by now.

So Werewolf went on the internet and looked up some videos on YouTube, and the Terrible Trio saw the unmistakable evidence for themselves. No matter who or what came at them, those Guards simply refused to budge. Not a muscle on their face would twitch.

"So what do you think?" Zombie asked, "Shall we go out and have some good old-fashioned fun by scaring those Palace Guards?"

"Well yeah!" yelled Mummy, "Challenge accepted!!!"

And so the Terrible Trio packed their horrory overnight bags and caught the first flight to London.
