A darkly comedic horror anthology that revels in surreal, grotesque scenarios—time-traveling bikes, ritualistic madness, and sentient flora—blending absurdist humor with genuine unease.

Enigmatic asylum owner Dr Tremayne houses four very special cases. Visited by his colleague Nicholas, Tremayne explains his amazing and controversial theories as to why each patient went mad, be they a ritualistic 'luau', a time-travelling bicycle, a toy tiger, and a tree stump.
