Hyde Street isn't safe for anyone, including its resident ghouls, psychos and killers.

When Pranky steals a cursed werewolf mask from his Hyde Street nemesis Mr. X-Ray, the world's most dangerous scout finds himself transformed into a pint-sized wolf-kid. Unable to remove it from his face, a humbled Pranky must ask for help from X-Ray and the neighborhood's sinister surgeon Doctor Ego. But none of them or the other residents are prepared for what's stalking them from the shadows: The Butcher of Hyde Street has escaped imprisonment, stalks his fellow Residents, and basks in their blood.
