In this episode of "Stories Philippines Podcast," we unravel the chilling tales of the aswang, a creature deeply rooted in Filipino folklore. Known for its shape-shifting abilities and predilection for human prey, the aswang embodies our cultural fears and anxieties. We explore various legends surrounding its origin, from ancient nature spirits to cursed individuals, and delve into the different types of aswang, including the manananggal, tiktik, and wakwak, each with its own terrifying traits.

Through personal anecdotes, we reveal the psychological impact these myths have on communities and individuals. Discover the folkloric practices used to ward off the aswang, showcasing resilience and cultural heritage. While the stories may be dark, they also highlight themes of hope, empathy, and the strength found within communities.
