In Gremlins: Secrets of the Mogwai, we travel back to 1920s Shanghai, decades before the time frame of the 1984 “Gremlins” live-action Movie. To reveal the story of how a naïve 10-year-old Sam Wing met the young Mogwai called Gizmo.

"Mogwai" is the Cantonese word for "Demon" and in the 1984 movie "Gremlins" it is shown that Sam Wing grows up to become the Chinatown Curiosity Shop owner Mr. Wing, played in the film by Keye Luke. Revealed in this movie and in the 1990 sequel film "Gremlins: The New Batch", the sun causes the Mogwai to die and water causes them to reproduce. If they eat after midnight, the Mogwai turn into evil monsters called "Gremlins". Sam and Gizmo, along with a 12-year-old street thief named Elle, take a perilous journey through the Chinese countryside, encountering, and sometimes battling, colorful monsters and spirits from Chinese folklore. On their quest to return Gizmo to his family and uncover a legendary treasure. They are pursued by a power-hungry industrialist and his growing army of evil Gremlins.
