Philippine Ghost Stories is an anthology of tales that recreate the myths, the legends, and the realities of haunted places in different parts of this country. The stories range from thrilling episodes to supernatural occurrences which are too mysterious to be explained. As you delve into these pages, you'll also discover some interesting facts about Philippine history and culture. You'll read about people who died but refused to leave their workplaces; about places which are said to be inhabited by spirits; and encounters with different kinds of ghosts. These stories and anecdotes, rooted in the past and true to Philippine culture and tradition, capture well-known superstitions and beliefs. Ghosts or "aswang"—not small, white-sheeted figures but terrifying creatures—are certainly the last people Filipinos want to meet after dark. Filipinos believe that aswangs live in trees and subsist on the flesh of humans who pass by after dark. Certain aswangs look like ordinary people except for their eyes which glow red when they are about to attack. They move swiftly at night without making a sound. Most people who have encountered aswangs say that they felt a strange and irresistible urge to follow the aswang to its lair. Usually, the victims are young children who disappear without a trace after playing near trees at night. Their bodies, found days later, reveal no sign of violence or foul play. According to belief, aswangs can be detected by their foul smell or because they wear no clothes. As soon as an aswang begins to attack its victim, the intended prey becomes paralyzed and can do nothing but watch as death approaches. The attacks come quickly and silently: The aswang pounces on its victim and then disappears into the forest–or into thin air—without leaving a trace of blood or torn flesh. The ghost stories in The Philippines tell of haunted places, supernatural creatures, and otherworldly encounters. Folklore has it that if someone dies under suspicious circumstances, his or her ghost will return to haunt the place he or she died. If you visit the place where the person died, you should hear terrible screams at night that could come from inside never-never land. You may even see metamorphosing into an apparition. There are also other people who hear weird sounds at night while walking on streets at night especially near graves. Ghosts can be any kind of creature but mainly they are human beings who died mysteriously while living in different places of the world. People in the Philippines believe in strange creatures which could look like humans but they have strange physical features. They are usually invisible but their presence is obvious by strange behaviors or things happening around them. If you hear growling sounds from nowhere, you must be very careful because it could actually be a strange creature. Spirits, on the other hand, are the souls of dead people who return to earth to do good things for mankind or to teach lessons which they can no longer express while living. Their existence has been proven by people who claim that they felt something move beside them at night before seeing a spirit glide through their curtain windows. cfa1e77820
