Meet the Aswang 

Aswangs can look like ordinary people by day but turn into scary creatures at night.  

Would you be brave enough to explore the town at night where an aswang is said to live?  

Aswang (ah-SWANG) – A Filipino word for a night-dwelling creature.  

Sometimes a vampire-like figure, sometimes a dog, cat, or pig — it can shape-shift!  

In villages and forests, often hiding during the day.  

Parents used to tell kids about aswangs to keep them from wandering out at night.  

Aswangs are one of the most famous creatures in Philippine mythology and appear in many local stories and movies.
