The leaves swirl and fall around her, this is what you call magical. With her head in the clouds and her hands in bread dough, will she ever get her fantasy? She knows the evil grip of reality has a tight hold over her. But as she wanders, is she really lost? Or has Once upon a time started the story? As she is thrown in many different directions, is there someone to stop this? Is there a knight in shinning armour or a prince to dance? 

It was if anything was possible in the woods. These woods were a place of dreams, of fears and of fantasy. It was a place where reality met fantasy.  As if all of the world was painted over. But wishes didn't come true this was reality and not a fairytale.

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!
