The movie displays how Satan eats his way into the souls of the living. To recruit new followers for his kingdom of darkness he sends out Karishika, queen of demons, to the world of the living. There she misguides and seduces a number of people, who all fall prey to her because of their own shortcomings. All but the last fall for the temptation of either the fulfilment of their desperate wishes, or money, or sex. The last, a pastor, resists all temptation and is saved from hell through divine intervention in a final showdown between a Pentacoastal congregation and Karishika and her helpers.

Karishika is a 1998 Nigerian supernatural horror film. It stars Becky Okorie in the lead role.

==Plot== A man waits outside a hospital's delivery room. Minutes later, a nurse comes out to tell him that his wife gave birth to a yam tuber. He immediately leaves the hospital in anger. This would lead to a fall out between him and his wife upon her discharge from the hospital. Following a heated argument, she hits him with a pestle and he falls to the ground dead. Karashika appears and tells her to hang herself, which she did, and she is taken to hell by Karashika.
