In this thought-provoking episode of Stories Philippines Podcast, we dive deep into the rich tapestry of Filipino folklore, exploring themes of fear, memory, and the supernatural. Join us as we share chilling narratives that reveal restless spirits, family secrets, and the eerie encounters that haunt the various regions of the Philippines.

Listen in as Aster confronts a doppelganger, Aven hears whispers from those long forgotten, and Alon performs a ritual to aid the restless spirit named Iago. These stories not only entertain but also serve as a lens through which we can process trauma and confront historical injustices, including the tragic massacre of indigenous villagers.

We also examine how monsters like the Tiyanak and Manananggal personify societal fears and impart moral lessons, while figures like the Kapre remind us of our duty to respect nature. Urban legends, such as the White Gentleman of Balete Drive, highlight our fears of the unknown in modern settings.

This episode underscores the vital role of storytelling in preserving culture and memory, connecting local tales to universal human experiences.
