action
Eight London students spend their free time playing sex games and drugs. Out of boredom, they try to get in touch with the soul of a deceased person with the back of their glasses . They unknowingly conjure up a ghost and communicate with it by holding their fingers to a glass which the ghost pushes to the pieces of paper. The ghost gives its name, whereupon one of the students throws the glass on the floor and runs away screaming.
It turns out that if the jinn kills all group members, it can remain on Earth indefinitely. The mind takes possession of the body of one of the students and the others are killed. The survivor visits his father in a mental hospital - who experienced similar events years ago - and reveals to him that he is the ghost.
