Plot summary

William has quite happily lived all his life in Toad-in-a-Cage castle with its endless rooms, dark winding stairways, and disturbing noises. Then one night he discovers those noises come from the dungeon, where a hunchback named Igor and his stuffed teddy bear guard a mysterious door. William unintentionally opens the door, freeing a horde of imprisoned goblins back into the unsuspecting world. He and Igor set out to round them up and have many adventures.
