Plot
Eleven-year-old Onnoval does not find himself at ease with his schoolmates. He believes that when he fights with someone or gets very excited, he will turn into a werewolf and keeps it a secret with his school sweetheart, Liselore. Teased and taunted at school, Onnoval writes a horror story in which he takes revenge on his classmates who actually humiliated him. There is this particular incident where Onnoval's love poem gets hand picked by Gino, the main bully and is then torn apart in front of their classmates. So, writing the stories to avenge his insult, naturally becomes an escape route for Onnoval. But when Ferluci gets his hands on the story and the devil makes a deal of turning them to true, things start to get very real indeed. If Onnoval does not rewrite his story very soon, everything will go horribly wrong during a school trip to The Horror Park. But that means he must get his story back from Ferluci... Inspired by popular novels of the same title.
