Le Docteur Richard Thorndyke est désigné pour venir diriger un asile dont le directeur a mystérieusement disparu. Très rapidement, il s'aperçoit que le personnel de l'établissement n'est pas des plus chaleureux.

Every day is boring and the same to Amy, even her birthday. All the evidence her family puts forth that each day is different she rebuts with well-thought out responses of sameness. She is supposed to visit her Aunt Lucy to pick up her present from her, and instead meets weird characters who insist that her aunt has a beagle named Charlie and that she has turned into a butterfly. Eventually she encounters fairytale folk who thought their lives were normal before the events in their stories occurred.
