But things aren’t quite as they seem. The real reason behind theinvitation is no other than to make him the protagonist of an obscure ceremony that must be carried out exactly one hundred years after the curse first came into effect. The sacrifice will put an end to the reign of the werewolf that has beenterrorizing the villagers ever since.However, Mariño, with the help of an old friend from the village, Calisto, will manage to escape. As the ceremony hasn’t been performed on the exact date, a second curse, much worse and dangerous than the first, will fall on the village… All thevillagers will transform into raging hungry werewolves!From then on, our guys together with Mario, Tomas’ cheeky editor, and Rosa, Tomas´ grandmother, will be forced to spend the longest and most terrifying night of their lives trying to escape devicing.
