Strange New

Metaphysics, the secret doctrine of the Dead, is traditionally and invariably couched in intrigue and mystery within the darkness of seances, haunted buildings, ghosts and demons; not truly taken seriously.

This is the story of Otis and the Dooda family (including their rat named Smoochie) moving to New York City, and the incredibly strange, but true, things that happened to them. It all started with Otis getting cursed by a guy in a potted plant in their apartment building lobby, and then meeting a bunch of their neighbors, including a farting pony named Peaches who was disguised as a dog.
