Philippines Mythical Creatures Novels & Stories

The Muslims call themselves Moros, a Spanish word that refers to the Moors (albeit the two groups have little cultural connection other than Islam). Historically, ancient Filipinos held animist religions that were influenced by Hinduism and Buddhism, which were brought by traders from neighbouring Asian states. These indigenous Philippine folk religions continue to be present among the populace, with some communities, such as the Aeta, Igorot, and Lumad, having some strong adherents and some who mix beliefs originating from the indigenous religions with beliefs from Christianity or Islam.[159][160]

She didn’t answer my question instead, a ball of water appeared on her hand then it slowly went to the ground. The water spawned a creepy creature. I don’t know what it’s called but I’m pretty sure that it’s one of the Philippine Mythological Creatures. It’s blue like water. The creature started flying with its bat wings. What’s horrific about this creature is that it only has an upper torso! It has fangs as if it was going to eat us, yikes!

Hello there, my dear reader. I'm glad you have returned for more Paranormal and Supernatural stories here at The Spa. We've spoken about the mythological creatures of the Philippines. Well, here is one more to add to your list... Meet the Tikbalang... Tikbalangs are creatures that look like humans but have horse heads. They are actually part of Philippine myths and folklore but are quite different from centaurs who have the body of a man atop the body of a horse. Most depictions of Tikbalangs in illustrations as having horsetails and equine hind feet as well.

She would love nothing more than for her small family to get better. Thinking about the noise, she surmised that maybe, someone had ridden past and was now gone. Maybe it was a Tikbalang? she even thought gamely. Tikbalang was a local mythical creature that was a mix of horse and man in physical features. She had never felt one or been scared of anything inside the hacienda, though. Ever. She closed the window and as she passed the living room, she bent down to kiss her brother on the top of his head.

"What the fck is a shokoy?" I grinned. "A green, ugly mythical creature from the Philippine mythology who lives in the ocean. It has scales and fins." His face showed disgust. "Like a fcking fish?" I slowly nodded. "Like a fcking fish." "How dare you compare me to a shokoy, Lucresia?" I gaped at him and shook my head. "I'm not comparing you to them, Damien. I'm saying I'd rather be with them than be with you."

"What? How are you so sure?" "That piglet you found could be the famous 'Suvarna Varaha'- a mythical creature from the legends. Just like The Wish Fish. Many had claimed to catch a glimpse of it while on the way to find the mythical fish, but no one had ever confirmed it that it exists," said Ghosavasu. "Although I am not sure if the piglet is that Suvarna Varaha, but if it is, then there is a high chance of other mythical creatures like the wish fish and the fairies to be real as well." "Are you saying..." Govind gulped at his words. "We might actually save Subham?"

Almost all. Whenever I see that dream when my son asked for my help. He asked me to save him. I don't know what? But he asked me to save him. And, it was better known to me that it was a son when a 'manannangal' ( A phillipines aswang/ ghost which roams at night with half torso and she is a woman) almost ate up my son inside my fetus last month. Her long tongue was almost entering through my mouth to get to my fetus, to eat my son. But, I was quick to grab her long tongue and tie her up with the upper torso of her body in my room.

"I was raised by the guardian of this island. Before he vanished, he was used by those humans with wings and golden eyes through black magic. Gusto nilang magkaroon ng kapangyarihang kahit sino ay hindi mapapantayan na hindi nila nalalamang ginagamit nila ang kapangyarihan ng buong isla para sa pansariling kagustuhan. Kaya naman nang makuha nila ang gusto nila, nagsimulang mamatay ang mga hayop at ang mga puno'y nawalan ng kulay." Hindi ako makapaniwala sa narinig. Ibig sabihin isa ang mga phoenix at arean sa paggamit ng black magic? "Bakit sa parteng ito lamang ang tila walang kulay? Sa baba ay okay naman at may mga nakita akong hayop kagaya ng rabbit," I asked again.

“When the tiniest of infractions, like an unintentional death of a butterfly, could then snowball into drastic changes in history.” – Ray Bradbury, on the Butterfly Effect The Philippines have become a different place.
