In the dark world of Philippine folklore, terrible devils lurk in the shadows, restless spirits bother the living, and huge monsters roam the night. This whole book tells the stories of the many supernatural beings that have scared and fascinated Filipinos for generations.
Find out about the scary stories that go along with the Philippines' most feared mythical creatures, like the manananggal, which changes shape, the aswang, which sucks blood, the angry White Lady, and the kapre, which steals children. Each entry talks about where these supernatural beings came from, what they are like, and what they mean in Filipino culture. They show how these beings reflect Filipino fears, values, and beliefs.
Read about traditional remedies and protective rituals, and learn about the differences between the islands in the archipelago. You can also see how these old stories still affect Philippine society today. Through detailed descriptions and thorough research, this book brings to life the demons, ghosts, and monsters that still interest Filipinos.
