Conan, a nurse, wants to gain the heart of his colleague Ellen and asks his friend on how to achieve his wish. His friend tells him of a legend that says that if one whispers his/her wish to a dead body, the soul of the deceased will help them. He then seeks the help of his other friend Oprah, who is a niece of a soothsayer. He whispers to a corpse his wish that  Ellen would fall in love with him, but finds out that the deceased went deaf before it expired. Conan goes home in disappointment as an old woman is hit by a car nearby. He rushes to her corpse to whisper his wish. The next day while at work, Conan is flirted on by Ellen and it seems that his wish had worked. But suddenly, the old woman begins to haunt him by possessing Ellen and leaves vague hints, leading to his suspension from work when his attempts to fend off the ghost are misunderstood as sexual harassment. Conan seeks the help of Oprah who agrees in exchange for monetary compensation. When Conan pays Oprah the bill includes a piece of paper with a demonic ram's head in it. In horror, Oprah concludes that they must seek her aunt's help. Oprah's aunt reveals that the old woman Conan met was a witch named Paula who wanted to ask forgiveness to her granddaughter Lala after unknowingly cursing her on behalf of a client. She needs Conan to make her drink a potion that is made out of holy water and Paula's finger to repel the curse. She also warns that demons will attempt to stop the resolution of the request, having claimed the lives of Paula's clients. Conan and Oprah travel to Bohol, where Lala lives. Throughout their journey they survive attacks by people possessed by demons. When the two arrive in Lala's house a centipede-like demon attacks them until Lala drinks the liquid and breaks the curse that was cast upon her, destroying the demon. Paula stops haunting Conan but hits him one last time with a book after joking about her death. After going on a date with Oprah along Manila Bay, Conan and Oprah witness two shooting stars come by, and Conan, finally saying his wish; for Oprah to become his girlfriend. An old woman, who resembles Paula, approaches stating that her wish is to find her twin, with both Oprah and Conan running away in terror. Cast
