Indian folklore for many centuries. Legend has it that King Vikramaditya, in order to fulfill a
vow, was required to remove a corpse from a treetop and carry it on his shoulder to another
place in silence. In between, the spirit of Betal (residing in the corpse) narrates a story to the
King and poses a query. When the king responds with the answer the corpse flies back to the
treetop! The king has to go after the vampire and start all over again. This follows in a
succession of stories and answers. A tantalizing setting...intriguing tales....an exciting
