All-New Creatures Of Philippine Mythology Documentary Web-Series Starts October 23rd, 2015

***
Very little is known about the history and evolution of Philippine Mythological Creatures. Most myth studies have been focused on the pantheon of deities which hold little affect on the lives of Filipinos today. While the early animist societies of the Philippines were worshipping the creator of the universe, BATHALA, they were also wary of entities that lurked in the shadows. It was these creatures that transcended time, religion and colonialism. A new 6 part web-series will focus on these, and study their unique origin, history and evolution into the modern era. The show is directed and produced by Jordan Clark, who brought us the 2011 documentary THE ASWANG PHENOMENON – an exploration of the aswang and its effects on Philippine society.

The first six episodes were decided by a poll done last year on THE ASWANG PROJECT Facebook page. The most requested creatures were chosen. The episodes will be loaded on THE ASWANG PROJECT YouTube channel to view for free.
