Stories that send chills down your spine.

As a child, I was always fascinated with the paranormal or the supernatural. So I started this podcast to share real and fictional tales of ghosts, monsters and encounters with the unknown.

Dark and Curious - The Old Boarding House

The Old Boarding House

12/19/21 • 9 min

Many of us know that old houses come with quirks like unseen forces that lurk in the dark. Some show themselves in dreams, while others manifest physically or both. Either way, it is scary to stay in haunted houses, and I wouldn't want you to go through the same thing I did. My tip? Move out as soon as you can.

Do you sometimes feel so sure that you placed something on one spot, but can't find it the next minute, then you find it in its original place when you're about to give up? Or your child might be telling you stories about an imaginary friend. Don't fret, you're not imagining things. Duwendes can do that, among other scarier things. Listen to Willow as she tells how she almost lost her sister to these little people whom she once called friends.

Dark and Curious - Engkanto: Master of Mystical Seduction
play

03/05/23 • 7 min

Welcome to Dark and Curious! Listen in as Willow takes us into the lush and vibrant forests of the Philippines, where a creature lurks beyond human comprehension. They call it the Engkanto, a being of otherworldly beauty and fearsome power. With its beguiling voice and seductive gaze, it lures unsuspecting travelers into the heart of the jungle, never to be seen again. But don't let its enchanting façade fool you.


The Engkanto is a master of dark magic and twisted desires. Its touch can drive a person mad with obsession, and its whispers can weave spells of destruction. So beware, my friend, for the Engkanto waits in the shadows, eager to claim its next victim.

Dreams could tell us a lot of things, like our state of mind, our struggles are, and many others. And sometimes, it tells us way more than we ever want to know. In this episode, I (Willow, your host), will tell you what I went through as I was at death's door.

Sit back and listen to Willow as she dabbles into the strange and unsettling world of creatures that can transform at will.


From the aswang that can shift from human to monstrous form to the manananggal that can detach its upper torso and grow wings, these shapeshifters are the stuff of nightmares. But don't worry; I'll make sure to keep the lights on for you.


Join Willow as she explores the eerie legends and dark folklore of the Philippines, and learn what to do if you ever come face to face with a shapeshifter. Just remember, if something looks too good to be true, it just might be a shapeshifter in disguise.


So tune in, if you dare, to "Shifty Business: Shapeshifters in Philippine Folklore." It's guaranteed to send shivers down your spine and make you second-guess every shadowy corner.

Dark and Curious - Mangkukulam | Philippine Folklore Witch
play

02/26/23 • 5 min

Welcome to Dark and Curious, where we dive into the mysterious Mangkukulam. For those who don't know, a Mangkukulam is a type of witch in Philippine folklore known for casting spells and curses on their unsuspecting victims.


But beware, dear listeners, as we delve deeper into the eerie practices of these dark sorcerers, we can't guarantee that we won't attract the attention of a real-life Mangkukulam. So if you feel a sudden chill or your cat starts staring fixedly at a blank wall, remember - it's probably a coincidence...or is it?


So, gather around, hold onto your talismans, and let's explore the spine-tingling world of the Mangkukulam. Just keep your doors locked and your windows barred because you never know who or what might lurk outside, waiting for the perfect moment to strike...

Two of the most destructive earthquakes ravaged some parts of Luzon, Philippines. And they both occurred in the month of July. Though these quakes wreaked havoc 32 years apart, many people like Joey, our sender, still remember it as if it happened just yesterday.

Join Willow as she reads through Joey's encounter with spirits who seem to not have known that they were taken too soon.
