Belzebuth is presented as the enemy of the Christ. When the latter died, he promised to reincarnate himself in a new corpse. Belzebuth, knowing that the reincarnation happened and that the Christ was a Muslim child, successfully manipulated the Pope, resulting in the Crusade. This resulted in horrible mass slaughters, including the young child.
Much time after, knowing that the Christ is reincarnated in Mexico, he possesses a young nurse and fatally stabs all the newborns in a nursery. It is revealed that one of the babies was the reincarnation of Saint Paul. After completing the crime, Belzebuth makes her slit her own throat, killing herself. Emmanuel Ritter, the protagonist of the story and a policeman, has a baby who is among the victims.
Four years later, Belzebuth possesses a teenager who commits mass murder in a kindergarten killing the reincarnation of John the Baptist. Ritter, charged of the investigation with American paranormal investigator Ivan Franco and his longtime partner Demetrio, goes to a fortune teller's home to ask if she knows something about the tragic events. However, during the consultation, the daughter of the fortune teller who as in her room, is attacked by Belzebuth who makes things levitate and projected everywhere in the room.
Some days later, he possesses another person who makes detonate himself in a theater. However, a child and mother, respectively Isa and Beatriz, who were going in too, are taken by Vasilio Canetti, a former priest banned for having sold his soul to the Devil in a van.
When Ritter goes in Canetti's lair with Franco, the demon manifests himself in a porcelain's doll. He says he has namy names and that his son is ready to walk among the humans on Earth. Rotter asks where is the priest and the demon says he will give the info in exchange of a child sacrified. He also promises that he will not come back for a thousand years. Ritter says he is not a martyr. Belzebuth uses his guilt about his wife, the latter having left her after the death of their child. He tells him that she said a lot of interesting things to him and that he can bring her and her child back. Baby cries are heard, Ritter turns to see his wife from behind holding her child. Ritter takes his baby joyfully but to his horror, constates that it is a decayed corpse with full of worms. Belzebuth frees himself and is about to attack Franco from hehind but the agent shoots the porcelain's doll, shattering it into piece. Belzebuth flees away and discreetly possesses Ritter.
He reveals himself when he aggressively asks Canetti where are the children he supposedly killed and that he takes a strange interest in a unholy place under subterreans where the latter, Ritter, Beatriz, Isa, Franco and two of his men go to put the young boy in a safe place, Canetti having shown that Isa was the Christ reincarnated. Realizing the possession, Father Canetti begins an exorcism ritual. However, Belzebuth had all the lights in the room turned off. Father Canetti lights a flare but is shocked with the Taser by the possessed Ritter. Knocking out Franco, he sets off in pursuit of Beatriz who fled with Isa. Coming out of the underground, he chases the mother and brandishes a pistol but is stopped by Demetrios. Pretending to have come to himself, he kneels down and begs Demetrios to help him, crying. His longtime friend hugs him and Belzebuth shoots him. After this, he comes on Beatriz, scaring her. He snatches her child from her arms and tries to gouge his eyes out but he is knocked out by Beatriz armed with a rock.
Under Canetti's advice, it was decided to remove Belzebuth from Ritter. The possessed policeman is crucified although he pleads with Beatriz to help, saying that he is himself but he quickly drops this ploy when he finds that it does not work. Beatriz, Franco and his 2 subordinates are responsible for performing the ritual. Canetti takes Isa to a room next door so as not to further traumatize the child. The ritual begins. Belzebuth attacks Franco's 2 men by wrapping them in white towels that he levitated to them and surrounding them with flies. Franco and Beatriz continue to pray and they see a large mass taking shape in Ritter's stomach. Despite the fear, they manage to finish the entire exorcism and Ritter seems unconscious. Strangely, the cross on which Ritter is crucified levitates in the air. The policeman opens his eyes, still in the possession of the demon. The cross suddenly falls to the ground. Ritter gets up, takes a stake out of his hand, and stabs Franco with it. Beatriz, scared, tries to escape but the door leading outside closes. Belzebuth grabs her by the throat and tells her all is lost and that everyone is going to die. He also says that Canetti sacrificed children to cancel the pact he made with him. Immediately afterwards, Canetti appears from behind, successfully extracts Belzebuth from Ritter's body and transfers him to a large stone, imprisoning him for eternity.
