Just as we pull around the bend of the twisted road, a pair of headlights blinds my father, causing him to jerk the steering wheel. After that everything happens so fast. We spin around and around for what seems like an eternity, a never-ending spiral pulling us in all different directions. Suddenly the spinning stops, and my stomach plummets to levels I have never dared explore. We don't stop falling. Further and further down into an abyss like state, and all at once, everything is black.

Over the river, and through the woods, grandmothers house can't be far.

Geoff and Naomi are dead, and they're depressed, but when Geoff's cat Bernie dies as well, they embark on a wild journey to find it in the underworld. ***** When Geoff dies, alongside his girlfriend Naomi, they end up sharing an apartment in the Underworld as skeletons. But after a few years, Geoff starts suffering a mid-death crisis. What's the purpose of going through the motions as a skeleton if you can't really live? Then he gets word that his cat, Bernie, just died and he can collect him and bring him home! Geoff and Naomi hurry to get Bernie only to discover that, due to a clerical error, their cat has been lost. With the hunt for Bernie giving new purpose to Geoff's un-life, he and Naomi begin a quest to get back their cat. Battling skeleton pirates, climbing the sky ladder and facing off against the villain who took Bernie, Geoff is determined to find his purpose - or die a second time trying!
