When a struggling single father accepts a night-shift security guard position at a prestigious natural history museum, he discovers the building's ancient secret: after dark, every exhibit magically comes to life. Dinosaurs roam the halls, historical figures step from their displays, and ancient artifacts awaken with mysterious power. Forced to navigate chaos while protecting the priceless collection and his young son who tags along, the guard must befriend an eccentric cast of living exhibits—from a wisecracking cowboy to a regal pharaoh—to stop a sinister force threatening to destroy the museum and unleash supernatural chaos on the city. As he uncovers the magic's origin, he learns that protecting these exhibits means protecting history itself. A heartwarming adventure blending wonder, humor, and unexpected heroism.
