In 2009, six university students-Nur, Widya, Ayu, Bima, Anton, and Wahyu-participate in a community service project (KKN) in a remote village in East Java. However, they are unaware that the village they choose was far from ordinary. The village head, Pak Prabu, warns them not to cross the forbidden gate that separates the village from the forest known as Tapak Tilas.
A few days into their stay, the six students begin experiencing strange events. While Nur and Widya are about to bathe, they are haunted by a black figure and a woman dressed in traditional Javanese dance attire. On the second night, Widya is possessed and performs a Javanese dance, but fails to recall it after regaining consciousness. Nur, who frequently experiences headaches since the KKN began, visits Mbah Buyut, the village shaman. After being offered a cup of coffee, Nur faints while Mbah Buyut performs a ritual to calm the spirit of an old woman who follows Nur wherever she goes. The next day, Mbah Buyut offers the same coffee to Widya, Ayu, and Wahyu. When Widya remarks that the coffee tastes sweet, Mbah Buyut tells her that the coffee is actually bitter, and the reason Widya tasted it as sweet is because she is being targeted by a supernatural entity.
From the moment he set foot in the village, Bima becomes withdrawn and often disappears in the middle of the night. Anton hears a woman's voice coming from Bima's room and finds offerings under his bed. One day, Nur catches Bima and Ayu arguing over a bracelet that Ayu was supposed to give to Widya. That same day, the joglo house where the students are staying is suddenly raided by villagers who inexplicably see Widya as a snake. In response, Pak Prabu suggests they end their KKN activities, but Ayu insists they continue. Suspecting Bima and Ayu, Nur goes to Tapak Tilas and finds them together. It is revealed that Bima and Ayu had been using Tapak Tilas as their secret place for sexual encounters.
Meanwhile, Widya and Wahyu get lost in the forest after their motorcycle breaks down while they were shopping in town. They meet an old man who directs them to a Javanese dance performance. They are given food before returning, but upon arrival, the food turns out to be a monkey's corpse.
Bima confesses to Nur that on his first night in the village, he had a dream about a Javanese dancer named Dawu who wrapped Widya in a snake. For Widya's safety, Bima had to serve Dawu by visiting her regularly at Tapak Tilas and giving her a bracelet as a charm for Widya's protection. Nur blames Bima, saying that Dawu's teachings were deceptive and that Dawu was only using Bima to harm Widya. While packing their belongings, Nur finds a shawl in Ayu's bag. Shortly afterward, Widya is possessed by Dawu, who warns Nur not to interfere.
The next day, Nur is possessed by the old woman, who warns Widya that someone among them would not survive, but she would not allow "Badarawuhi" to harm Nur. After regaining consciousness, Nur finds Dawu's bracelet in Widya's bag. When she confronts Ayu, Ayu confesses that she had placed the bracelet there in exchange for being allowed to have sex with Bima. Disgusted, Nur finally decides that the six of them must end their KKN immediately. However, that night, Bima heads toward Tapak Tilas. Widya follows him and finds Dawu's dance performance at an abandoned pavilion. At the same time, Nur finds Ayu dying in bed. The villagers eventually find Bima at Tapak Tilas, naked and near death. After Nur explains what had happened, Mbah Buyut reveals that "Dawu" was a title given to the Javanese village dancer and that the woman haunting them was Badarawuhi, the spirit of Dawu who controlled the village.
Mbah Buyut enters the spirit world called Angkoromurko, where Ayu is forced to dance by Badarawuhi, while Widya is prevented from leaving. Although Widya is saved, Mbah Buyut is unable to rescue Bima and Ayu. He explains that Bima repeatedly had sex with Badarawuhi, and the offspring of their union are snakes that now ensnare Bima in Angkoromurko, while Badarawuhi ensnared Ayu with a shawl to make her the replacement for Widya as the successor of Dawu's dance. As punishment for Bima and Ayu's adultery in Tapak Tilas, their souls would be forever trapped in Angkoromurko.
In the epilogue, it is revealed that Bima died four days after Nur, Widya, Anton, and Wahyu left the village, while Ayu died three months later. Four years later, Nur and Widya give an interview to a documentary filmmaker, with the condition that all names involved be disguised. In a mid-credit scene, Nur visits a religious leader who tells her about Mbah Dok, the spirit of the old woman who followed and protected her.
