Three chilling tales based on real stories expose the haunting depths of faith, fear, and the unknown — from a seafarer trapped on a cursed voyage, to an island plagued by a flesh-eating legend, and a young woman's battle against a legion of demons that pushes the limits of faith and sanity.

Near the end of the 19th century, 35-year-old Jos Rizal turned into the Philippines' most beloved hero when he was martyred by the Spanish colonial government at Bagumbayan. He died an extraordinary man of his times: renowned novelist, poet, ophthalmologist, journalist, and linguist. But behind these achievements, there remained the story of a man every Filipino can relate and connect to. Like today's overseas Filipino, Rizal needed to leave his family to fulfill his studies and career abroad, suffering from homesickness, and enduring a long-distance relationship with the woman he loved most. He was also the best example of the Filipino who came back home and used the knowledge and skills he learned abroad to help improve the lives of his family and countrymen.

Numerous wars were waged against Spanish colonizers who came to the Philippines in 1521. At the close of the 19th century, there was Andres Bonifacio's Katipunan.

A ten-year-old girl named Angeli has a stern, cold and seemingly unfeeling mother, Maria. To prevent her daughter from entering a forbidden room, Maria tells her daughter that a child-eating monster resides in there. Fully believing what her mother has told her, Angeli refuses to go inside the room until a prank leads her to believe that the monster keeps her friend. Going inside the room, Angeli discovers her mother’s secret.
