When avoiding police scrutiny, Warren Arno goes to the home of his uncle, Robert Arno, deep in the Louisiana swamps. His uncle is reclusive, living without modern conveniences like electricity. Robert warns Warren of the dangers of the swamp. That night, Robert has his butler Hugo show Warren to his room. While sleeping, Warren is attacked by an amorphous, blob-like creature that attempts to strangle him. Warren wakes up, and the creature flees into the swamp. The next day, Warren decides to not tell his uncle about the attack, suspecting his uncle is trying to hide something of value on the grounds. He goes digging in the area, but comes up with nothing. Back at the house wih Robert and Hugo, there is a knock at the door. A beautiful woman walks in, saying, “Why have you come?” Warren, interested, introduces himself. Robert tells the woman he would come to her soon, and asks her to leave. Afterward, Robert goes out into the swamp carrying two pieces of red meat. Warren follows his uncle, seeing the woman walking with him. He wonders what hold the woman has on his uncle, when the amorphous creature attacks him again, this time from the ground at his feet. It starts to wrap around him as he fires his pistol at it. He manages to tear it off of him and flee back to his uncle’s house. There he discovers his uncle counting several bags full of gold coins. Warren confronts his uncle, accusing Robert of trying to frighten him off. The uncle tells his nephew he’d discovered an alien intelligence in the swamp and had fallen under its control. Warren doesn’t believe it, and strangles his uncle to death. When the woman shows up at the door, Warren tells her he’s killed his uncle Robert and now is rich, elatedly tossing money about the room. He says he can take care of her. She asks what happened to Hugo, to which he informs her that he’s killed Hugo, as well. The woman tells him that Robert fed her. “I am the first of my species on your planet. I must grow! I must have sustenance! You will help me grow!” The woman begins to change into the creature from the swamp, much to Warren’s terrified surprise. The creature says it gave the gold to Robert in exchange for his mortal body energy, using both Robert and Hugo as batteries. It tells Warren that he would fulfill a greater glory, and “become a part of me!” as it completes the transformation from beautiful woman to hideous monster, wrapping around him.
