What makes it funny?

A mummy takes a cosmetics job to get the moisturizer she needs to stop drying out. A werewolf keeps losing jobs because he steals razors.

The comedy at work

Petersen turns familiar monster traits into employment troubles and personal embarrassments. Group therapy gives creatures accustomed to frightening people a place to complain about trying to live among them.

Try this if…

Good to know

The everyday complaints accompany murders and threats against the group's members.
