THE FULL MOON ON BLACK SATURDAY

full moon

An Aswang (or Asuwang) is a ghoul in Filipino folklore. The myth of the Aswang is popular in the Western Visayan regions such as Capiz, Iloilo and Antique. The trademark or major feature of Aswangs which distinguish them from other Filipino mythological creatures is their propensity to replace stolen cadavers with the trunk of a banana tree carved in the cadaver's likeness. They are also said to like to eat small children. Their favorite body parts are the liver and heart.(source from wikipedia)

On the otherhand, a werewolf(lobo) is a mythological creature that is sometimes a person and sometimes a wolf, usually believed to prey on people. In different versions of folklore, the werewolf is either a magician or the object of a curse. In much modern literature and film, the werewolf is said to shape-shift under the influence of the full moon and to be vulnerable only to a silver bullet. The word werewolf derives from Old English wer-wulf, meaning "man-wolf."(source from wisegeek)

I will tell you a story that happened last black saturday. I wake up early in the morning(dawn) and saw something. It's the full moon up there. It was so lovely and I took a pic of it. I remembered then a story bout aswang talked by my mother or my elder sister when I was a lil kid. However, I am getting old now and I am not afraid anymore. Haha. Back then, I was about to take a bath(I will go back in the city because I still have work on black saturday). I thought of a naughty thing. I went up the hill to get a pail of water in the deep well(in a singing mood). But I just took a bath there. I took off my clothes and only the moon was watching me.
