FARCE. With the help of a slick Realtor, a young couple thinks they have found the perfect home, even though it backs up to a spooky graveyard. But before they can sign on the dotted line, a bumbling detective arrives, investigating the mysterious disappearance of several people from the area. In the meantime, the Realtor introduces the couple to the Zombiesmiths, who live next door (in the graveyard, that is!). The new buyers think the hungry Zombiesmiths are anxious for them to sign the contract so they can celebrate over breakfast. But the Zombiesmiths have a different idea…they plan to have the couple for breakfast!
