Lucie and the Eighth Doctor end up in the Black Forest of Germany, 1827. Pretty much immediately, they stumble on an adventure that's a seamless mix of Creator/TheBrothersGrimm, Myth/{{Faust}}, ''Film/{{Nosferatu}}'', ''Literature/{{Frankenstein}}'', The {{Golem}} and Franchise/{{Superman}}. (Which isn't quite as out-of-place as it seems, as the Superman story was inspired by The Golem to begin with.)
