Cette série explore l'histoire d'un homme artificiel doté de lames de ciseaux à la place des mains, sorti de l'isolement pour entrer dans un monde de banlieue. Ses talents artistiques uniques et sa nature douce lui apportent initialement la célébrité et l'acceptation. Cependant, son apparence inhabituelle et la peur de l'inconnu mènent rapidement à l'incompréhension et à l'ostracisme, explorant les thèmes des préjugés et du désir de connexion.
In a castle just outside a sleepy suburban town, a brilliant inventor created Edward Scissorhands... but left him tragically unfinished. Two generations of exile have left Edward digging through abandoned experiments, but once he wakes up a creature left buried, he discovers he isn't the only one missing a vital piece.
After settling in with Megs and her family, Edward becomes curious about a television miracle doctor named April Wells, and enlists the help of friends and townspeople to send her a homemade audition tape. While Megs struggles with her uncertainty about the whole situation, Edward has a quiet hope that, maybe, she could help him.
