Lamont and Margot are cruising through the Caribbean. They stop in Haiti and visit the mansion of Lamont's old friend Monsieur Dupree. The sound of drums in the hills leads M. Dupree to tell Lamont a disturbing story. There is a voodoo priest, Kay-on, who leads a quite sinister voodoo death cult that demands human sacrifices. Ten years ago, Kay-on's cultists went on a rampage, seizing women and children to sacrifice to the voodoo god. Among those killed was M. Dupree' swipe, who had only recently given birth to their son. Lamont and Margot were under the impression that voodoo was "stamped out", but on the contrary, M. Dupree tells them that voodoo "only sleeps."
In fact, M. Dupree thinks those drums mean that the voodoo cult is back. Sure enough, Kay-on's goons are readying a human sacrifice and gathering victims. When they kidnap M. Dupree's little son Juan, Lamont and Margo decide to hunt down this cult.
