Four cousins: an emigrant, narcissistic Myra (Janice de Belen), eloquent Faye (Arlene Mulach) and former clergyman Donald (Herbert Bautista) gather in their late uncle's house to get their inheritance of 5 million pesos each. Their uncle's butler told them if one of them dies within a month, his/her inheritance goes to the others. Each of them were given the responsibility of taking care of a comic book written by their uncle. The cousins show no interest to their comic books, except Donald, and throw it away. Meanwhile, their emigrant cousin was killed by Filomena, a malakat from one of his uncle's comics.
They return to their uncle's house only to find out the butler had died. When the clock strikes midnight, the characters in the comics came to life. Donald, with help from Rosalda, the pianist ghost, had discovered there was an even stronger character, Buboy ang Munting Diablo/Buboy the Child Demon. Buboy kills them one by one.
