Rosanna had a crush on Ramil before his apparent death, and is compelled to open his coffin, only to find Ramil alive and well. Ramil reveals to her that he is a vampire, and was once the love of Rosanna in a past life during the Spanish colonial period, only to be cursed by Lucila. Eventually, Ramil convinces Rosanna's family to come live in his mansion.
