Coraline: There is something strange about Coraline's new home. It's not the mist, or the cat that always seems to be watching her. It's the other house. Another mother and father with black-button eyes are waiting for Coraline to join them there. And they want her to stay with them. For ever... Fortunately, the Milk: Mum's away. Dad's in charge. There's no milk. So Dad saves the day by going to buy some. Really, that's all that happens. Very boring. There are absolutely NO aliens, pirates, or intergalactic police inside. And most definitely NOT a time-travelling hot-air balloon piloted by the brilliant dinosaur scientist Professor Steg...

And finally, she's a genetically altered necromancer who can raise the dead, rotting corpses and all, without even trying.

Not normal.

But Chloe has a plan. And the end is very near.

Or die trying.
