The story revolves around a village in Bihar where a boy named Vivek lives. One morning, Vivek's mother finds him unwell with a high fever. As she tries to wake him up, Vivek behaves strangely, demanding to eat meat despite being a vegetarian. His behavior worsens, and he eventually bites his mother. Vivek's father rushes home to find Vivek's mother injured and Vivek dead, with severe wounds on his body.
The story then shifts to a cremation ceremony where Vivek's friends, Banwari and Rajesh, are watching the scene. They recall the previous night when they attended a festival and saw a mysterious woman performing a dark ritual. Vivek had seen the woman eating something and discovered three dead bodies, including his own and those of his friends.
As the story unfolds, it becomes apparent that Vivek's body was possessed by a vampire, which had taken over his body to search for Banwari and Rajesh. The two friends decide to inform the village elders about the incident, hoping to find a solution to save themselves from dying. However, their efforts are in vain as they are eventually killed by the vampire, and their bodies are brought to the cremation ground.
The story ends with the sound of "Ram Naam Satya Hai" resonating throughout the village, a traditional Indian phrase chanted during funeral ceremonies.
