Casper is a college student hanging out with his friends as he watches his grandfather's occult shop. During this meet up, they accidentally break an ancient jar. This jar had a dark spirit in it, who causes everybody the kids encounter to be DrivenToSuicide. It then possesses the corpses to become zombie demons, or "zemons," as our heroes refer to them. The friends then have to contend with these zemons while trying to reverse the curse by daylight, or else it will be permanent.
