Plot Summary
The Succubus is set in an urban environment where fear lurks in the shadows with some unidentified evil. The human individual must confront a threat that comes not only form nature or civilization but also from himself, for he projects himself onto his surroundings.

The history of his involvement with women, which is present in the form of fleeting images in his consciousness, comprises a string of disappointments.
