Monster by Mistake

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Monster by Mistake is a Canadian computer-animated television program aired on YTV. The story deals with an eight-year-old boy named Warren Patterson and his older sister Tracy, as they deal with bullies, ghosts, magic and an irate sorcerer.

One day, the two siblings discover a creature named Gorgool in a glass-like ball. He attempts to trick them into freeing him by reading out of a book of spells and using the power of a magic jewel, but Tracy reads the spell wrong, and the spell hits Warren instead. The side effects of this, are that whenever Warren sneezes, he turns into a giant blue monster, and to change back, he must sneeze again. Warren has allergies, so this happens quite frequently. Gorgool manages to obtain a servant after Warren and Tracy foil his first attempt to escape. The servant is large, clumsy and not very intelligent and is also referred to as Servant.

The series deals with Warren and Tracy guarding the book and the jewel in order to keep Gorgool imprisoned while avoiding a bully, Billy Castleman. They are accompanied by a jazz-playing ghost, Johnny B. Dead.

[edit] Fenrath

Later on, in the third season, the kids and Johnny go to Gorgool's planet, Fenrath. In Fenrath, they make a friend named Red who accidentally learns of Warren's secret. When they visit Fenrath, they are also troubled by Gorgool's twin brother, Morgool, who rules Fenrath. Unlike Gorgool, Morgool isn't confined to a ball, and is far more dangerous. He also has a guard working for him named Kragon.
