Batangas Stories

Bilang isang babaeng lumaking maraming pangarap sa buhay, hindi lamang para sa kanyang sarili kundi pati na rin sa kanyang pamilya. Napakalaking bagay na matupad ang isang pangarap na matagal na niyang inaasam, ngunit sa hindi inaasahang pagkakataon ay ito pa yata ang magbubukas ng daan patungo sa masalimuot niyang nakaraan. Ang simple at payak na pamumuhay na inakala niyang magkakaroon na ng pagbabago at pag angat dahil dito ay naglaho't nagpaguho sa napakatibay niyang pag-asa. For someone who don't easily give up on something, would she gave up her happiness for wealth and prosperity?

Together, they must learn to trust, to forgive, and to embrace a love that has waited patiently for them - a love worth fighting for.

And old houses begin to whisper with the voices of the dead. At the heart of the horror is Nanay Daria-an ancient aswang matriarch whose appetite for flesh is only matched by her hold over the town.
