The underworld is a dangerous place. It's all fiery and there's marauding dragons and all sorts of other critters you wouldn't want to run into. Demise, aka Bone Head, isn't bothered about any of this. Why? Because he's a skeleton guardian of the underworld - and not just any guardian. He thinks he's the BEST and is determined to prove it... with catastrophic results... Demise just wants to impress his Big Boss, Hades, god of the underworld. Problem is, Hades barely knows he exists. After an attempt to get attention backfires horribly, causing the gates of Hades' castle to disintegrate, Demise and Mort are demoted to dog-sitting duty.
