Two half-brothers spend a summer with their grandma in Monte Macabre, a small and mysterious town, where the myths and legends of Latin American folklore come to life.
There are episodes where blood is faked using ketchup or paint. In one episode skeletons are extracted from characters' bodies using supernatural forces, only leaving their skin.
Valentino's stomach is punched by his brother as a form of celebration. This is only shown in one episode but the end credits show that scene every time since it's in the CN Studios logo. However jokes about his body are infrequent (it's only mocked in the pilot). There is a monster that grows in size as he eats everything he finds and swallows people alive.
