Myths of the Philippines Islands and Malaysia

Fact? Folklore? Superstition? Fantasy? or Foolishness?

Welcome to the Winged Creatures of the South Pacific - from The Philippines Islands to Malaysia - these creatures haunt the peoples of this region, and are an active part of their daily mythology.  Very real, very alive, and very dangerous.  Outside the cities, locals still use tokens, amulets, and garlic to ward off these other worldly flying monsters.

We shall introduce you to the spectrum of common flying creatures from the Philippines and Malaysia, and explore the underlying myths common to them all.  While skeptics may disagree with the validity of reports,  assertions, and eye witness accounts, regardless of the interpretation, none can deny that something is happening.  The challenge is, of course, to find truth in a field so full of fraud and fantasy.  We hope this website provides you with an introduction, and understanding of these incredible phenomena.
