PEGGY SUE:
They visit a magical bookstore, only to discover it's filled with man-eating monsters. At the last moment, they flee the store on the fly, only to be taken to a black castle by the monsters that escaped from the book. The black castle is enormous, and no one knows what's hidden inside. It's home to a bony doctor, whom no one has ever seen, yet everyone knows he can heal any injury. In reality, the black castle is a fierce monster from outer space that was damaged when it collided with a meteor years ago while flying over Earth. The bony doctor is a robot designed by extraterrestrials to handle emergencies, capable of healing any extraterrestrial wound in a matter of seconds. In fact, it has already begun treating the black castle, aiming to replace its concrete structure with muscle and ultimately turn it into a living creature. They must destroy the castle before it fully transforms, otherwise, once it wakes up, it will be too late.
