Plot
Set 4 years after The Boxtrolls, Eggs (the main protagonist of the film) has been planning a date with Winnie Portley-Rind (Eggs' love interest) with the help of his boxtrolls friends (Fish, Shoe, Oyl Can, Sparky and the other boxtrolls). After many failed attempts, Sparky gets an idea to help Eggs on his date with Winnie: Since Eggs became a "proper boy", he'll need a "proper suit". After that, The Boxtrolls wish Eggs good luck and the night of his life begins. However, Archibald Snatcher, having faked his death in the first film somehow, is back and has big plans. He knows Eggs and Winnie's date is the perfect opportunity to get revenge on them. So he teams up with his henchman, Mr. Gristle, who also faked his death in the first film somehow, and the night of their life begins as well.
