The two new "Pieten-in-Training" (PIO's for short) are soaking up everything like sponges, eager to prove themselves. Everything seems to be going according to plan until disaster strikes. Jean-Claude takes a nasty tumble down the stairs and ends up bandaged. To make matters worse, his Aunt Poets suddenly shows up at the castle. She insists on taking over the housekeeping.

Five train passengers are joined by a mysterious fortuneteller who offers to read Tarot. A quintet of stories unfold: an architect returns to his ancestral home to find a vengeful werewolf; a doctor suspects his new wife is a vampire; an intelligent vine takes over a house; a jazz musician plagiarises music from a voodoo ceremony; and a pompous art critic is pursued by a disembodied hand.

Isolated bell-ringer Quasimodo wishes to leave Notre Dame tower against the wishes of Judge Claude Frollo, his stern guardian and Paris' strait-laced Minister of Justice. His first venture to the outside world finds him Esmeralda, a kind-hearted and fearless Romani woman who openly stands up to Frollo's tyranny.
