Thank you DESTINATION TRUTH!

I would like to say Thank You to the crew of Destination Truth for going to the Philippines and investigate the story of the Aswang that so many of us has heard about when we were growing up. I was a bit disappointed though that you couldn't get any concrete evidence of its existence. Oh well, I guess the story of the Aswang will keep being just that. A story.

      I would like to point out though that are more creatures that need to be investigated. And it also ties back to the Aswang. There is one particular story that is also very popular. They are called "Manananggal". They are "supposedly" children of the Aswang. They are humans by day, winged creatures by night. They look for a remote field and separate from their lower bodies and fly off to seek a victim. They like pregnant women so they can suck on the fetus with their long, stringy tongue and they like the elderly (the sick ones, those close to death's door). They say, one way to kill them is to pour salt on their lower bodies which prevents them from re-joining and when the sun comes up, they die. again, like I said, it's a story. One of the ways to know if you are in fact face to face with one in the daytime, is to have citrus (calamansi) in your pocket and squeeze the juice out. They don't like the smell. If the person starts acting wierd or crazy like, then you have just met a "manananggal' in their human form.

    Another thing I would like to say is that, if you do decide to pursue this story, I would like to recommend that you take Jason or Grant (from Ghost Hunters) or both of them with you and LEAVE Ryder behind. A lot of people find her too skittish. And I am one of them. I just feel like instead of running towards the "subject in question", she runs away from it. How can you do a proper investigation with someone like her? She freaks out too quickly. She needs to chill out!
