Episode 72 Filipino Folklore

Published: June 8, 2020, 6 a.m.

b'If the title didn\\u2019t give it away, this episode is about folklore from the Philippines. First, Cody talks about Mount Banahaw, a holy mountain where paranormal occurrences are plentiful, including a cave where you\\u2019re judged for your sins. Then, Chris tells us about a multo (Filipino ghost) known as the White Lady of Balete Drive, who doesn\\u2019t have a face and talks directly to your mind. Next, Cody discusses another mountain, Mount San Cristobal, which is the horribly evil version of Banahaw. Finally, Chris shares a crazy creature, the Manananggal, that can detach itself at the torso and eat you up. Creep of the Week brings us another amazing theatre ghost story. This week\\u2019s munchies are Mike\\u2019s Hard Lemonade, Oishi Ube Pillows, and Crema de Mangga.
