Unable to sleep for more than a week a large number of people become completely sleep deprived and eventually go mad with rage. A new medicine is produced to cure the illness but it has a side effect which turns patients into vampires, who are later called the "Bloodivores." They are feared by other people and wear a special necklace that sends a signal to the police if a Bloodivore is unable to control their emotions.
