Kara and Santiago love anything that involves speed. They each have their own drag-racing cars and compete at local raceways, bringing their sons Eddie (12) and Myka (4) along for the ride.

One day, an email happened to cross the desk of Christopher, the owner of a sparsely furnished '70s-era house. The email sought volunteers for a sci-fi home makeover. Feeling he had nothing to lose, Christopher signed up and forgot about it ... until he heard from the Monster House producers some weeks later. However, when push came to shove, the house, built in 1976, just screamed Austin Powers, not Starship Enterprise. And so the plan changed from sci-fi to funky.

Part of a tight-knit family, Andrew and Megan pooled their resources with Megan's parents and sister and bought a five-bedroom fixer-upper about a year ago. Together, the five of them sanded, scraped and painted ... until Andrew and Megan became parents. Funny how one little baby can take up a whole lot of time. So with 6-month-old Kansas at the center of their attention, Andrew and Megan decided to call on the Monster House team for help in creating a convenient, hassle-free but still fundamentally cool home á la The Jetsons.

When you're the lead singer of Suicidal Tendencies, you tend to travel around the world with some frequency. And you collect a lot of unique items — particularly those with Asian/African/aboriginal influences — along your way.

So after 10 years of living in his four-bedroom home, Monster House fan Mike Muir called on the crew to take his abode to the next level: the spookiest house yet.

Chris and Pam have always loved the ocean — so much so that they bought a 3,600-square-foot home complete with ocean view after the birth of their fourth child.

Married for three years, Tony (a dino fanatic as a kid) and Kim have five children between them, ranging in age from 13 to 8.

Fortunately, their jobs as an electrician and a special-ed teacher give them a lot of flexibility. Unfortunately, their resulting finances are limited, and the home-improvement budget is always the first to be slashed. Good thing the kids are rabid Monster House fans! They turned their mom onto the show, and, well, the rest is history.

Nancy, a native of Hoddesdon, U.K., came to the States a few years back and has been missing home ever since. She and her husband, Jeffrey, love Christmas, and since Nancy's unable to see her family, friends or beloved town during the holidays, Monster House decided to bring everything to her.

You think you're the ultimate sports fan? Well, you don't know Glenn and Renée, whose ideal weekend is spent hanging out in the living room, flipping from game to game. And they aren't just any fans.
