Ebenezer Tweezer is a youthful 511-year-old. He keeps a beast in the attic of his mansion who
he feeds all manner of things (including performing monkeys his pet cat and the occasional

him young and beautiful. But the beast grows ever greedier and soon only a nice juicy child
will do. So when Ebenezer encounters orphan Bethany it seems like (everlasting) life will go
on as normal. But Bethany is not your average orphan ...
