The series follows the adventures of timid tech geek Pierce and wannabe popular kid Charlie, two friends who discover one day that their oddball neighbour Old Man Helsing (voice of Creator/NickTate) is in fact the world's greatest HunterOfMonsters. Helsing however is getting pretty old and won't be able to rid the world of vampires, werewolves, and other horrors for much longer. Deciding he needs somebody to succeed him soon, Helsing agrees to make Pierce and Charlie his apprentices, assigning them to complete various tasks around his home that he dubs "[[TitleDrop strange chores]]".

Thus, Pierce and Charlie find themselves taking on all manner of duties both mundane and unusual, many of which are complicated by the involvement of monsters and the supernatural. Joining our two young heroes in these unusual endeavours are two equally odd tenants of Helsing's home -- a playful and mischievous StringyHairedGhostGirl named Que and a little green monster named Snorp.

* HeroicBSoD: In “Don’t be Weird”, after Que invites some of the popular girls over for a sleepover, she has several of these when she’s worried about them figuring out that she’s a ghost. Even worse, every time she has one, she temporarily loses control of her magic to catastrophic proportions.

Charlie and Pierce are two friends who discover that their odd neighbour's house at the end of their street actually houses a portal to supernatural worlds. Said neighbour, Old Man Helsing (Creator/NickTate), feels that he has gotten too old for his adventures there so he starts training them to be his apprentices. They are accompanied by Que, a mischievous ghost girl, as they complete Helsing's tasks.

* WhatDoesThisButtonDo: A running in “Clean The Car” involving Que; despite Pierce continually telling her to stop, she just can’t resist, which keeps getting them into trouble.

* TeamPet: Snorp, a green dog-like creature who's Helsing's pet.

* OurGhostsAreDifferent: While able to pass through walls and possess people, Que doesn't seem to follow most ghost logic, including being able to eat, being scared, getting BoundAndGagged, and, if needed, turning into a more monstrous version of herself. Also, extreme cold makes her less ghost-like and removes her magic.

* JerkassBall: Oh, does Que grab it [[Understatement HEAVILY]] in “Possess Charlie” in order to win the class election. Controlling Charlie’s body while knowing he’s not comfortable with it, treating Pierce like a slave so her promises can be fulfilled, and all of this just to prove how “normal” she is? Yep, definitely JerkAss material.
