The hysterical meets the historical in this comic romp through the wackiest wax museum in history. Six high school students have to retake a failed history class during their summer break, and their class project is to help set up a new wax museum. Though their eyes glaze over with boredom, there's a twinkle in the wax figures' eyes as they mysteriously come to life. The magic of history literally comes alive as the students and wax figures find themselves on a wild goose chase to find a hidden treasure.
