Teresa arrives on vacation to her grandparents. Grandpa is the village jack-of-all-trades and an amateur sculptor; Grandma enjoys smoking cigars. Their tranquility does not last long. A local wealthy man, Napakunk, wants Grandpa to carve a statue of his daughter Pepina, but Grandpa refuses – he can't find a block strong enough to carve such a fat girl. So Napakunk cuts down the linden tree where the grandparents first met and takes it to Grandpa, who gets angry and throws him out. Napakunk then gets revenge by destroying the spooky garden grandpa built for Tereza. Only a small wooden monster remains, which suddenly comes to life and starts wreaking havoc on Napakunk...
