Synopsis

An actor loses his hearing, so he goes to visit an unorthodox individual that a friend tipped him off to. This person recommends transplanting the auditory senses of a bat, to which our luckless hero agrees. Not only does he receive super acute hearing, but he starts to gain other characteristics of a bat. Unfortunately, it is only later that he realizes it was actually a vampire bat...
