After failing to get the controversial picture of a congressman and his mistress Natasha, his boss gives him an ultimatum and if he fails to submit a picture, he will be fired. He confides his problem to his best friend Ato (Rayver Cruz), who is a successful owner of a restaurant. Odie walks by himself and comes across an antique shop he had never seen before. He goes in and is greeted by Santi (TJ Trinidad), the eccentric owner of the antique shop. Odie's attention is caught when he sees a portrait of a beautiful woman which he recognized was the work of his late father. He offers him a camera that will solve all of his problems but he will need to sign a contract: 1. He should not tell anyone about the store, 2. He should take good care of the camera and not destroy it and 3. He should only take pictures if deemed necessary. A slash on his hands soon appear.

The scene then jumps to Chloe walking into a talk show. Chloe is a well-known singer who was pushed to fame by her ambitious mother Maita (Lotlot de Leon). Before her fame, she was really a frustrated and terrible singer. Maita then told her to "visit" someone she knew who could help her. The two then went to Santi's shop and asked for his help. Santi offered Chloe a phone which will make her famous and grant all her wishes, but she was asked to sign a contract: 1. She must not tell anyone about the store, 2. She must take care of the phone and not destroy it and 3. She must not answer any messages unknown to her. A slice then appeared on her hand. One night, Chloe attempted to record herself playing the guitar while singing. As she was really terrible at this, she decided to watch the whole video and to her surprise, she sounded amazing. This led to her being one of the most recognized singer in town. Sometime later, a what seemed to be a personal assistant application popped into her screen and asked Chloe questions which were impossible to be said by a mere technological app. She started talking to it like a real person and it always tells her everything about everyone. When a blind item rumor against Chloe spread all over the internet, the app warned her that it was done by her friends, one of which included Natasha (who was the congressman's mistress), whom she confronted in a restaurant. The app asked Chloe what she wants to do and wished Natasha dead. Natasha, in reality was killed when a vlogger (Odie) revealed it in his website. After telling her story, Chloe breaks down and the talk show was forced to cut. Suddenly, the voice of the app began bothering her again. She runs to her dressing room and was followed by Maita. The two have a heated argument when Chloe told her she destroyed the phone. Maita walks out. To Chloe's fright, the phone came back, good as new and threatens Chloe that it will victimize her mother next. Chloe runs out of the dressing and into the parking lot where she was confronted by someone before being run over by a car.

Ato is then seen in front of a gothic looking house delivering food from his restaurant. It was raining hard and he is bothered by the odd behavior of the family. When he was forced to stay due to the bad weather, he seemed more and more uncomfortable. The family was speaking nonsense about cannibalism. When the patriarch (Jason Gainza) arrived home, he asked Ato to help him carry a body bag inside the house. Reluctant and frightened about it, he goes along. He felt relieved and relaxed when the body bag contained a roasted pig. He realized that the family's youngest member was having a Horror- themed birthday party, hence the creepiness he has been feeling. When the family started to eat the cake Ato made and delivered, they all felt weird feelings in their stomachs and began to vomit, eventually killing them. It was revealed that Ato did this on purpose. Before he was a successful restaurant owner, he consulted Santi for help. Santi gave him a small handbook with potion recipes but he needed to sign a contract: 1. He must not tell anyone about the store, 2. He must take good care of the book and not destroy it and 3. He must follow the recipes exactly as they are. A slice soon appeared on his hand. He made a poison to spike the cake with, which killed the family. The secret of his restaurant success is, he uses human meat to serve to his customers and adding concoctions from his book to make it extra special.

The scene jumps to a gay man named Pippa (John Lapus) on an eyeball date with a hunk (Markki Stroem). Realizing Pipa was gay, he left him in rage. Pippa became really conscious about how he looks and was always teased by men for him being a homosexual. He also ends up jealous with his sister Larra (Cai Cortez) when Pippa's childhood crush Aldo (Manuel Chua) harbors feelings for her. Pippa is then threatened by drunk men one night. He comes across Santi's shop and offers to help him. He gives him a bottle of perfume that will make him attractive to all men, but he needed to sign a contract: 1. Never tell anyone about the store, 2. Take good care of the bottle and never destroy it and 3. Have one spray per day and never exceed. Everyday, Pippa is chased through town by handsome men. One day, he goes to a restaurant to meet with Chloe Narciso Fans Club. Pippa then sees Ato (his high school classmate) talking to Odie about something important. Pippa then spots Maita in the restaurant with Chloe, confronting Natasha. As a big fan, Pippa asked Maita if he can have Chloe's autograph to which Maita gladly appreciated. As time runs by, Pippa becomes abusive with his perfume and has an army of men do things for him. Larra becomes worried about her brother. When Larra and Aldo (along with his other male friends) went out for the night, Pippa confronted them and poured all the cologne on himself, the men then became voracious zombies and chased Pippa all around town. He was then cornered as dozens of zombies surrounded him.

After Maita and Chloe's fight in the dressing room, Maita went back to Santi's shop and asked him to help Chloe be herself again. Santi rebuffed her pleas and instead handed her an age-reversing cream, implying that what Maita really wanted was to be beautiful again. She signed a contract which says: 1. She must not tell anyone about the store, 2. She must take good care of the cream and never destroy it and 3. She must not overuse it. It was revealed that Maita was the beautiful lady in the portrait Odie saw earlier. Her fame stopped when she was raped resulting into Chloe coming into her life. The now young and beautiful Maita (Janine Gutierrez), ventured into a bar to attempt to reconcile with Chloe. She was helped in by the hunk whom Pippa was seen with earlier. She completely forgets about Chloe and started to party hard. Suddenly, bugs began bothering her skin. In fright, she ran out of the bar but was stopped by the hunk and started to sexually assault her. At the parking area, Odie came to his senses and started to look for Chloe. He saw her unconscious body on the floor and shouted at the car driver to help him get Chloe to the hospital. The driver was revealed to be Ato who is determined to make Chloe his next course in the restaurant. Ato points a gun at Odie and before he could kill him, a weakly Chloe bludgeons Ato unconscious. Odie then accompanies Chloe to the hospital to treat her injuries. Pippa was still being chased by the zombified men but comes across a dumpster. He dives in the dumpster to hide his smell from the perfume. As the zombies began to retreat, Pippa spots Maita being molested. He saves Maita from the hunk and the two recognized each other (as they met at the restaurant). Pippa and Maita then go to the hospital and came across Odie and Chloe. Realizing they were all cursed by Santi, they decided to finish it once and for all. Odie concluded that if they exchange their respective products from Santi's shop, they will be able to destroy it without harm. Odie gave Chloe his camera and she gave him her cellphone. Maita gave Pippa her cream and Pippa gave her his perfume. The four confronted Santi when Ato also arrived still with his violent approach. Santi then put them all into a trance as he revealed himself to be the Demon and revealed that their lives are payment for the products they bought. Ato, not being a part of Odie's plan, was killed by Santi. Chloe was threatened by Santi but before he could kill her, Chloe destroyed the camera. Her ears soon bleed. Pippa was almost killed by Santi when he impersonated his sister Larra but Pippa destroyed Maita's cream and escaped. Maita was then surrounded by thousands and thousands of bugs but was able to destroy Pippa's perfume allowing her to escape as well. Odie was confronted by Santi. He was able to smash Chloe's phone before being stabbed in the eye. In the real world, Chloe couldn't hear anything, Odie was blind and Pippa became sensitive to smell. They destroyed the remaining things of Santi and Maita sacrificed herself to burn the contracts and the store. Maita and Santi were killed in the fire. Sometime later, Chloe, now deaf, was in a press conference, with Pippa being her translator. After the conference, they met with a blind Odie. As the three boarded Chloe's van, Santi, who was revealed to be alive, was seen in front of his closed store selling a new batch of items to a new batch of people.
