The relationship between Germans and Austrians is illuminated in a satirical and tragicomic way. The main characters of the series are the members of the German Family Sattmann, who have been spending their holidays for years in the fictional village of Lahnenberg in the Tyrolean Zillertal. The story begins with real excerpts from the TV show "Let's Go!" Asked by Fuchsberger, Austrian candidates explain that the Piefkes are the imaginary Germans who threw their marks around them and believed that something was better. The outrage among German tourists is great, especially among the Berlin business family Sattmann. The Tyroleans are doing everything they can to contain the threat of a stornowelle of German tourists (which in reality also existed).

Natalie, Raffi, Simon and Lukas in a new para-normal. Monstrous creatures and humans live side by side, more or less harmoniously. At least that's true in theory. Because sometimes it is quite tricky to fend off a monster attack without violating the "Creature Rights Charter" and the exclusion of vampires from public pension insurance triggers a discrimination debate - headaches are inevitable. But the group's biggest problems remain interpersonal ones: in the midst of the supernatural chaos, the four young adults struggle with the big and small dramas of adulthood, love and thus finding their place in the world - although zombies, vampires and other beasts don't necessarily exist make it easier.
