This truncated collection of 11 stories are put into the mouth of a Baital, which is a non-Western vampire spirit who inhabits the body of a dead person. Neither the story nor the framework are primarily horror; the storyteller has been captured and earns his temporary freedom by tricking his listener (King Vickram) into answering a difficult question posed by each story told.
