Javier takes Delia, his pregnant wife, to his ranch in a remote village. Although she's surrounded with love and comfort, Delia has an uneasy feeling. One day, Javier goes out hunting and kills a deer, which to his horror turns out to be a man. Javier's servants toss the corpse over a canyon and tell him to forget the incident, but the dead man's ghost seeks out his mother, the local witch, and begs her to avenge his murder.
The witch turns up at Javier´s ranch, and under a mysterious and
unexpected shower of thunder and lightning, curses the family. Javier's
wife shall bear twin daughters, one of which shall be a fearsome
demoness. A day later, Delia goes into labor and gives birth to a
healthy baby girl. Everybody feels calmer after the birth, yet a couple
of hours later, Delia gets labor pangs again. This time she's ripped
apart by another baby girl. Delia bleeds to death, yet because the two
girls look identical, both healthy and beautiful, it´s hard to know
which one killed her mother. Several years later, the identical twins
have very different personalities. Gilda is an independent doctor and a
city dweller. Her twin Liliana is a frail invalid who resides in the
ranch. However, one of them harbors inside the dreadful Chacala, which
will soon materialize to wreak havoc among those around her.
