## Story Summaries
**The White Lady of Artega Terminal**
A night shift dispatcher at a bus terminal in Iloilo City encounters a woman in white who appears every night at two in the morning, sitting in the same plastic chair, waiting for a bus that will never arrive. She is not alone. The chairs around her are filled with translucent figures, spirits of passengers who boarded buses in life and never reached their destinations.
**The Resident of Ortigas MRT**
A security guard at the Ortigas MRT station discovers that the tunnels beneath Metro Manila are home to something ancient and enormous. Station workers call it the resident. It breathes in the dark, watches from the tunnel mouth with ember-red eyes, and has been there longer than the railway itself. A maintenance worker who ventured into the tunnel never spoke of what he saw, but his ghost keeps returning to the platform edge every night.
**The Ghost Jeepney of General Santos**
A stranded college student boards a late-night jeepney in General Santos City, only to discover it is not a normal ride. The passengers have solid black eyes. The road leads to a place that should not exist. And the old driver warns that if you speak about what you saw, the jeepney will come back for you, and next time, the door might not open.
