While attending a dinner party, the guests are entranced by their host's music room and then find that, for reasons unknown to them, they are trapped in the room.

More guests die, and the situation deteriorates until it is suggested that they sacrifice Nobile (Enrique Rambal). Then Letitia (Sylvia Pinal) recommends that they retrace their actions of the last days, and they find themselves freed from the room.
