After a series of grave robberies at a cemetery, finally a keep spots the thieves: Strange short and ugly creatures. When the story hits the newspapers, Whitney Hammond sends Venus to cover the story for Beauty Magazine. Venus meets with cemetery officials and organizes a plan to catch the creatures. They put on a phony funeral and bury and empty coffin. Venus then stakes out the spot and when the creatures come out she signals the others who use a car to distract the creatures with its lights and horns. While the creatures are distracted, Venus then hides in the coffin. The creatures return and take the coffin back to their hideout located in an underground cavern beneath the cemetery.

As it turns out some of the creatures have implanted their brains into the bodies they have stolen and that this body is intended for their ruler Princess Nakima. Venus rises from her coffin and reveals that she is still alive. The leader of the creatures informs her that they are called the Underearth Men. Having grown tired of living below the Earth they have come up with a plan to have their brains placed in the bodies of the recently deceased so they can travel to the surface and take over the world. They are about ready to kill Venus, when she offers her services to them, saying that she could better find bodies for them. The leader of the Underearth Men agrees to this and allows her to leave.

Back on the surface, Venus tells Whitney what she experienced and they begin plotting a trap for the Underearth Men. Venus returns to them the following night and informs them that she has learned of a triple burial that is happening that will suit their purposes. Venus then leads them out to the graveyard, but when they get out they spot a flashlight and Venus instead leads them to a nearby cave. They hide out until sunrise and the Underearth Men begin to succumb to the sunlight and die. Their leader tries to flee back to their cavern but when he arrives he finds that the humans have covered it over and he too dies in the sun, ending their threats.
