    S2 E4: St. Elmo’s Fire

    On a humid Manila evening, a simple burger run turns unsettling when a blinding flash reveals a hovering silver orb—silent, deliberate, and gone in an instant. Set beside a WWII-era school rumored with restless spirits, this true account from Book 2 of True Philippine Ghost Stories (pages 20–22) by Jherry Barrinuevo blurs the line between everyday comfort and the unexplained. Was it an orb, a wandering soul, or something electrical like St. Elmo’s fire? We trace the tale’s roots in Filipino folklore and history, weigh the science, and explore how a childhood ritual can be forever changed by one extraordinary moment. Turn off the lights if you dare.No spoilers—just questions that linger long after the last bite.=======DISCLAIMER 📢This episode might be ad-supported.

    Bonus Episode 1 - The Towers of Terror

    A rapid-fire companion to True Philippine Ghost Stories Book 2, this bonus episode stitches together three bite-sized scares set in Makati’s most familiar spaces: a late-night elevator ride at Makati Medical Center, a chilling encounter in the Insular Life Building, and a photo taken at Eastwood that reveals more than the lens should capture. These quick shocks turn routine moments—pressing an elevator button, clocking out after overtime, snapping a picture—into razor-edged reminders that even the most modern settings can hide ancient fears. No spoilers here—just tight, atmospheric setups and a clean hit of urban folklore that will make you think twice before checking that next snapshot or riding alone at 3 a.m.Disclaimer: This episode is a companion to the True Philippine Ghost Stories book series.

    S2 E3: Bloodstains in the Comfortroom

    A late-night newsroom on T. Kalaw. A restroom no one dares enter after dark. Flickering lights, empty elevators, and a proofreader’s scream that changes everything. Inspired by Judy May Geronimo’s account in True Philippine Ghost Stories Book 2 (pages 16–19), this episode follows the Daily Tribune staff as they confront a haunting rooted in a hidden tragedy—where mirrors bloom with blood and a desperate cry echoes through tiled walls.We explore how fear intersects with memory, folklore, and faith—asking what happens when a place meant for privacy becomes the stage for unfinished business. From spirit questors to skeptical editors, from spinning chairs to sobbing in the night, this is a story about empathy, justice, and the ghosts that linger when pain goes unacknowledged.Stay with us as we trace the clues, honor the culture that shaped these beliefs, and listen for the voice that still asks for help. No spoilers—just a chilling, thoughtful journey into a haunting that refuses to fade.Source: True Philippine Ghost Stories Book 2, pages 16–19.

    S2 E2: The Ghost on Dimasalang Street

    A new house in Baclaran should have meant peace. For Gerri, it became a crossroads between comfort and the unseen. From childhood visions of a departed aunt to a night when whispers in the garden threatened to “fetch” her father, this true account traces how faith, family, and fear collide when the boundary between worlds thins. Guided by Filipino folklore—manunundo, white ladies, and the power of a rosary—Mark walks you through a tense, intimate haunting that turns fresh paint and calm nights into a test of courage. No spoilers—just enough to make you turn off the lights and keep your prayers close.Source: “The Ghost on Dimasalang Street” by Gerrilyn Cadiz, True Philippine Ghost Stories Book 2, pp. 9–15.=======DISCLAIMER 📢This episode might be ad-supported.
