This "urban legend" sounds like a blatant and obvious tale created to cover up an ACTUAL HUMAN TRAFFICKING RING or ORGAN HARVESTING 😮
Read the comment from mariam4323.
Of course, no such thing as UL.😮
Story was kinda add and minus some point.
Urban legend was a businessman has a twin daughter. One was normal and other was half snake. And eversince the snake girl was born their business became good and then they were able to build mall. To preserve the luck the make a den beneath the mall. At night the snake girl do tour around the mall. The more she grow the more the business became si successful. So from poultry they started to feed her humans. Victims are not only girl. More on shop lifters.
Its has a movie : Shake, Rattle & Roll XV
Exactly
It's human trafficking for sure....for organ donation you don't need pretty females specially
This case gave me shivers, like when the boyfriend asked the cashier where his girlfriend was and they gaslight him I felt my stomach drop
Yes, Im happy that Filipino Case is covered. But I'd to clarify this,
1. The snake man is not related to this case.
2. The robinson's mall in question of the urban legend is in manila.
3. Jovelyn case is in robinson's palawan which is almost 800km far from Robinson's galleria
😊
That was like some X-files vibes there.
That was the part that gave me goosebumps
Edit: and the part that she describes the two-way mirror and trap door

@@IreneEBoon ohhh very interesting
As a nursing student at that time, we were all talking about the skeletal remains that is allegedly Jovelyn. Even our professors are kinda skeptical because of how fast the body decomposed. It’s kinda crazy to think that there is a chance that the police and the mall might’ve actually tried to hide the truth.
a dead body surprisingly can decompose under three months to as fast as 10 days! especially in a hot and humid climate like in the Philippines.
Yeah but quick question, why didn’t anyone smell the body, given how close it was to people’s homes, and people walked on that trail? /g@@The_Average_RUclips_Enjoyer
It's most likely her body but the killing was done by someone else and then buried near the cousin's home to make them take the blame.
It’s not a “chance” they’re covering things up. It’s blatantly obvious.
@realtalk6195 that's what I believe too, like there are no tissues or blood because everything was neatly moved there
I think the cousins were blackmailed bc whoever harvested her organs and disposed of her didn’t expect the case to become so widespread
I'm from Egypt and this used to happen more than a decade ago. Women would go in to changing rooms and just vanish in to thin air. One incident were a guy and his wife went to a clothes store and she went in to the changing room and vanished. The husband didn’t stay put and searched high and low for her. The husband was a police officer so he had the upper hand. He eventually found out the truth. The changing room was an elevator staged as a changing room. Once a woman gets in, it activates and they kidnap her for organ trafficing. I don’t remember honestly if he found his wife dead or alive but i think she was dead because her organs were missing. After that case, these kinds of abductions miraculously stopped. But organ trafficing still exists and way worse than before, they changed their tactics to go under the radar. What a world we live in.
Absolutely terrifying. To think this happens in broad daylight
That is terrifying. To think of all those times as a teenager I was all alone in those dressing rooms. Who knows if someone was watching me the entire time. I will never step into one ever again.
Do you happen to remember the name of this case?
Seriously? Omg. I have something else to add to my list of things to worry about when my daughter becomes an adult. I have to now teach her about elevator changing rooms and I have no idea how to prepare her to be safe. If it happens in other countries, it happens here as well. I guess I'll have to teach her to buy the clothes and try them on later. I'm so terrified for when my daughter goes to college and she's only 15. The world is way too scary these days for our children.

You arent actually safe just because people are around. A crazy homeless woman tried to take a little kid from his mom at our local mall recently and all the people just watched or recorded on their phones. Only 1 man tried to help out of a huge crowd seeing the mom fight the woman off her child.
Yes.. everyone now takes their phone out and records not helping just recoding so annoying
Bystander effect but with cell phones added 😔
I would like to have someone help out and also get the situation recorded for safety reasons ;; but mostly I'd like to have my kid safe so ;; it's disheartening to hear most people thought to only record instead of helping
Yes this happened in NY on a train where a woman got attacked and r and people just watched her and recorded the incident, this was back in 2021. Makes me sick being a victim of SA, I don’t understand what is wrong with our world and the people in it
Whoooa that’s crazy !! 🤯
I hope the mother kicked that crazy lady’s ass , I would’ve definitely helped if I was present
For those wondering how to check a mirror to see if it's one way: Try looking through it. Trick mirrors require the observation room to be roughly 10 times dimmer, so if you cup your hand to make a tunnel around your face you should be able to see through it if it's false. You can also try sounding it out by tapping your knuckle. Regular mirrors are butted against a wall and should make a dull thumping sound.
There's a finger test for two way mirrors: put a fingertip on the surface of the mirror, if there's a space between finger and reflection - it's a regular mirror; if there's Not space - it's a two way mirror. No space, leave the place!
Imagine having to do this every time you go shopping though. I can't believe how much more dangerous life is for women!

If You Have Money You Have Power!😖
@@ddoseofmemes so so so true, hmmmm
Money talks there💰 Crooked people get paid to keep their mouths shut.
The top guy in the police force is in on it. They're probably also the consumers of these crimes.
I want to look up how many of these cases where police claim “the victim is just a runaway” end up being not the case.
Unless there’s hard proof the victim ran away, it shouldn’t be considered. Period.
If something happened to my child and a cop even starts to begin the sentence “she ran away”…. I would lose my shit on them.
it's even worse when they "ran away and at legal age"
Ikr, so scary
I hate that! My step aunts (extremely abusive) estranged husband forcibly took her and their kids in the middle of the night one night and the police told us she is an adult she probably decided to relocate herself and the kids. We where like “without telling any of us??” Two weeks later he had killed her and attempted to un alive himself, all in front of the kids 😢
@@carlycanary9448I'm so sorry to hear that. Praying for you
The phrase, "they just ran away..." Is a universal response of those lazy police...
she was decomposed to bones in just 18 days…? i find that hard to believe. even if the weather played a part , i feel like that can only play a part to an extent. i feel the police definitely had their hand in this smh they’re covering something up..
This.
an exposed body (if there's insect/maggots present, temperate climate, and submergence in water) it can be reduced to bones as early as 2 weeks, but if they were buried 1.2m under, bodies can retain tissue until up to a year. But yeah, I don't believe it was her bones, shit gonna smell so bad, the air would carry that smell, and no one can missed that
Yeah and hard to believe there is no decomp in the area or on her things. Also why didn't anyone smell the decomp if the area has heavy foot traffic. Even a dead rat would smell really bad so imagine a human corpse in decomp. 😳
Local police are f*cking corrupt. There's a saying here that good men don't join the force because they would not be able to stomach the corruption that goes on in there. They are great at planting fake evidence on civilians if they need to meet a quota or want to look good. Children are fair game to them. Civilians here are terrified of the police. We would rather defend ourselves tbh because we can never really tell the officers' true intentions.
The former pig president Duterte and the latest president son of the dictator Marcos also bend over for the police and pretty much 2x-3x their salary to avoid a coup. To the point where their current pension will basically destroy our economy. So they can commit human rights violations WITH THE HELP of the police force. No good and intelligent men join the force. If they do, they don't last long because they get traumatized by the corruption and cruelty.
this really proves how fucked up the justice system here in the Philippines. frightening to know that you can be a suspect without doing anything sketchy, as long as you're vulnerable and no money to seek justice.
!
Correct
This is so scary!! I would rather die than be blamed for killing my own.
Not just Philippines, its all around the world. Its in every country. Justice system is a joke created by criminals as a disguise for their hidden agenda. It could be drug dealing trades, human trafficking, homicide, anything you could think of!
I don't even know why people still believe or trust in the so-called "justice" system. It never brought closure to the family of victims, only pain.
It's just as bad in Australia and America. They found underground tunnels during lockdown that went from here to the ocean and into Oprah's basement.
Found a hole/tunnel in the closet of one of our hotel rooms. Florida in 1998. It was really creepy. Dad made us leave and go to a different hotel after that
Fucking terrifying… thank god you found it and your dad took it seriously
To clarify: The mall in the urban legend (Robinsons Galleria) is located in the capital of Philippines, Metro Manila. The mall that Jovelyn disappeared (Robinsons Place Palawan) from is regional branch located in Palawan Island. Both malls are owned by the same corporation which is Robinsons but are located in different places.
What's d point....sa Manila naman talaga nag originate, madali lng mag transfer

@@jctarpin1740the point is that the case's location WAS FROM PALAWAN so its wrong to say the disappearance happened in Rob-Galleria when it was actually from Rob-Palawan
it literally confused me when she started mentioning Puerto Princesa all of a sudden bc i thought the disappearance happened in Manila like she said in the beginning
God forbid a snake monster can have an island holiday!

We still don’t have answers why the mall refuse to cooperate with the investigation. If there’s a crocodile in the area where the deceased was found, I’m pretty sure the neighbors will not allow their children to play there. 🤷🏻♀️
Yup look up Keneka Jenkins case. Hotel and Police were acting suspicious like in this case (caught editing and hiding security footage)
…Black market for human trafficking and organs are big money 💰Police are not all innocent
large animals would have left teeth marks on the bones and would drag parts of the body in different directions.
@@kicunya12and the bones would not look that neat and clean
I'm from the Philippines and this urban legend is still widely belived today. Especially on really big malls like Robinsons and SM. My mom always warned me about changing rooms so I never go in one and memorized my size.

this case left me and my fam dumbfounded. we were following this case bc it was interesting that a girl disappeared just like that. when they found human bones and investigated it whether it was the girl, we were convinced that it wasn't her bc how can she just decompose, literally to bones, within just a few weeks? when they did the dna and it actually matched the parents, it was confusing and sketchy. even the professionals interviewed weren't convinced that she just decomposed that fast unless they used certain chemicals or faked the results.
also.. the hair that was found was literally CUT.. as if it was just cut from her head and they just threw it on the crime scene just to prove something..

It's so heartbreaking how most of the cases Stephanie tells us involves the police's disloyalty to the public. They're supposed to serve and protect us yet they act like this in serious cases.
As a filipina, I rarely hear these crimes discussed so thank you for covering this case!
Rarely? Are you being serious? This incident literally was a big time during 2022 and even got NBI, PNP, and Raffy Tulfo involved. In fact, a large amount of money was even introduced as a reward to the person or group of people whos able to locate Jovelyn. So it doesn't make any sense how such a crime is "rarely" discussed lmao.
The person behind this is obviously rich and likely to be a government official. Some say it's highly planned out and that she wasnt actually killed. They also say shes now living abroad, had plastic surgery, and that her family is now wealthy.

Urban legends are functionally true in that they serve as cautionary tales... You pulled this out of my memory. Human trafficking is an issue in the country.
Yup one of the reasons why immigration is so strict when it comes to pinoys leaving the country, but some people are just so unaware how prevalent human trafficking is in our country and get mad when they're offloaded etc. Trafficking is so bad every young filipino has heard of the white van legend at least once in their lifetime.
@lilycha9398 uuh yeah white unmarked vans we joked in high school about pulling off heists when we saw one then fast and the furious came out and well you know pretty girls are more attracted to the dude in the super car than the creep in the white van, not me I own my own sports cars but I think its everywhere until it became the obvious and most suspicious vehicle of choice. Here in Texas American kidnappings have ramped up lately due to cartel wars and how do you think they're pulling out of now? Government vehicles!
This has quickly become one of my very favorite channels. You are a wonderful story teller, super cute and very detailed…. and I just truly enjoy listening to you two. Thanks for all the hard work you put into your podcast/show.
It is genuinely very very easy to end up with a false confession. I mean it's awful but we still have many people who can't seem to wrap their mind around a confession being false especially when they are sitting on a jury, and have witnessed the confession on tape. It has led to multiple innocent lives ruined and even taken.

@@user-sb2dd7xf7jthink about how brain washed our ancestors were to even get us here. This is a mass awakening that happened and all we need to do is take methodical action.
Having been a tarot card hobbyist for years now, thank you for explaining it so well, Stephanie! It is indeed not about magic or foreseeing for most people, just looking into your own mind and using the cards as a tool to find oneself. It can be extremely emotional and overwhelming at times, but so is meditation. It has given me many beautiful memories.
The only thing I know for sure about this case, was that Jovelyn was a kind soul, and we should all be inspired by her willingness to take responsibility and show through action, how grateful she was for her life. RIP, I didn’t know her but hearing her family say all of that about her, truly inspired me, blessings to her and those that truly loved her.
Having lived in the Philippines for the first 20 years of my life, I know corruption is pretty much the norm there. Even regular people with a little bit of money can cheat the system so easily.
There is definitely an authority figure behind this, and they have connections with the police. That’s the only way the police would know where the body is if the cousins are innocent, which I truly believe. There’s no way these simple folks have the means to make the body decompose so quickly.
There’s many leads in this case, but I doubt anything will be done in the end. That’s just how it is in the Philippines 😒

@@nomdeplume2213 but it's not of equal severity everywhere. In some places it's worse than others.
Stephanie!! You forgot the part wherein on the night Jovelyn was missing, a police (who’s also Jovelyn’s school instructor) sent her a facebook message asking where she was and that her mom’s looking for her. People found it weird because Jovelyn hasn’t been active at school for 2 months and the messages seemed so casual as if they knew each other. People conspired that he sent that message so that he won’t be a suspect.
Turns out he likes Jovelyn but she didn’t like him back. He would even comment on her photos that she looks like a doll. This was all revealed by her friends/classmates on Raffy’s show. Raffy then demanded that he should be a person of interest. This was all buried because of new revelations and that he apparently has a strong alibi.
People didn’t believe this because the night Jovelyn disappeared, August 5, was the guy’s birthday. And his messages were sent on August 6 at 12:53am. She wasn’t even officially declared as missing during that time and Jovelyn’s mother also allegedly didn’t know who the guy was so his messages didn’t make any sense. Also, remember the sedan found on the cctv that Jovelyn allegedly rode? The guy who sent her the messages owns a sedan. However, the sedan evidence found on the cctv was buried because the investigator was just tired and sleepy when he made that statement on Raffy’s show!! Also, people are suspicious of him because who has time to message a missing student of yours at 1am when you’re tired of celebrating your birthday. The case is so complicated.
what the hell
wow
Sounds to me like that school instructor is part of thr human trafficking/organ harvesting ring.
the instructor should be the person of interest wow he must have a link
She got robbed and raped by her 2 cousin. The case is already solve it has nothing to do with the police guy.
When I was a kid in the early 2000s, everyone knew this story. Even my classmates saw it when they were shopping at the mall. They saw a woman accidentally fall through the floor, disappearing into a small space beneath the curtain cloth in the dressing room
You have the best murder mystery channel on RUclips by far . I’ve watched them all I love your story telling and your husbands questions that just add comfortable extra dialogue.
Thank you for covering so many cases from the Philippines lately, Stephanie! I highly recommend you check out the Manila Hostage crisis that happened in 2010. It's an extremely sad & frustrating case about a former policeman hijacking a tourist bus, and the PH government & media mishandling the case which ultimately led to the death of 8 Hongkongers'. I swear this case will keep you on the edge of your seat because you'd think everything will be fine until someone f*cks it up over and over again.

What’s really weird is that an officer that used to be involved in her school who would send weird messages in her pictures about how doll-like she is had messaged her that night on facebook asking where she was and that her mom was looking for her.
She wasn’t reported to be missing at all during that timeframe. Her parents do not know this man.

this is VERY suspicious and frustrating. everything genuinely seems to be faked/planted by someone in power. i think the mall or other people in power had something to do with it. either they paid or compensated the cousins in some other ways or threatened them to take the fall. as mentioned, the decomposition was too fast and the bones looked too clean. im afraid the higher ups or the real perpetrators got away with it and used the cousins as scapegoats.... my guess is she got trafficked.... :(

that's exactly my thoughts on the matter... every single step of this is beyond sketchy... like, why did the mall REFUSE to give cctv footage to the police? this to me is one of the most pressing questions. people do things for a reason. for a mall to simply WITHHOLD crucial evidance is so bizarre?? also, if its not just an urbal legend and there WERE several disappearances in Robinsons malls, that is so suspicious. it gives high likelihood of foul play on the mall's part. on top of it all the police so desperately trying to close the case and pin it on whoever...
True!Jovelyn was not kidnapped, she met with the foreigner who owned the store she went to in Robinson. In short, Jovelyn was mistress,a gold digger.
This is such a confusing case. I hope her family can find peace and get the full truth in what actually happened to her Such a sad story regardless of who is to blame because this is a young life lost, for no reason we have been given

I don't find it confusing at all. The authorities are corrupt and incompetent. That's all there is to it.
Theres no definitive proof that she has lost her life. The DNA was rigged. PNP and NBI were paid by the person behind this who is likely to be a high-ranking government official.
It's night time and I feel so sick to my stomach, terrified and so sad for this innocent woman that didn't deserve to go through this, no one does. I can only imagine what her last moments were like and what she went through. I hope she and her family get the justice and peace they deserve.
I genuinely don't think I'll ever be able to go in dressing rooms again, I've not felt this amount of fear after watching true crime podcasts in so long, maybe it's because I've watched 5 episodes in one day and alot yesterday too, I'm going to take break now.
My dad’s friend (my godfather) was one of the engineers of the Robinson’s Galleria when it was being built. I remember visiting the site as a little boy.

Ive been practicing tarot for 6 years and you nailed it with the meditation angle. It is exactly like that, helping you figure out your feelings about a situation and a mind map for solutions. Cards link in different, novel ways that you wouldn't have considered because you're stuck in your own head, in a mental loop or not sure what to do about it. The epiphany in the cards is thinking outside your own confines.
So many episodes! I’m overwhelmed there’s so many interesting cases to listen to 😭
Omgg yesss I feel the same
that actress was told to say that to boost her career. it was a scheme. it worked. she got paid big too
I just recently discovered your channel because of Coco Lee (bless her soul). Thank you for sharing this urban legend / case from my country. More power to you!
This happened to someone that my former boss knew. It was a girl that my boss' friend was dating and brought to a foreign country (I forget the country). This story was shared with me back around 2003. Girl went missing inside a retail store. Boyfriend was confused and sworn she was in there yet no where to be found. After authorities came they found that the mirror in the dressing room led to a tunnel. It was a two way mirror (meaning in a dark environment, the person in the lighted environment would never know). That mirror covered a passageway to the tunnels. It was clearly designed to abduct and to kidnap.
I heard she got rescued but was never quite the same in the head after.
Be aware and informed. Stay safe. 🙏
ps: with regards to the urban myth, wouldn't it be easy to search for trap doors in the dressing rooms? I'm aure with social media today, one can lead a movement of curious fans to go 'hunt' for such trap doors in that very mall.
What is this case called?
Yall really just make stuff up in the comment section huh? if such a case existed it would be all over the news, don't be an idiot.
@@NotSureIfSrs_x Do you speak every language on earth? Because a lot of news stories are only available in specific languages. Furthermore, not everything gets onto the internet or remains online especially if it's before the mid-2000s or even pre-2010s.
The worst that's in the world don't make it onto the news in general. For example: There's poor and homeless young boys and elderly murdered everyday around the world. There's countless migrant laborers being tortured or killed everyday, countless more dying attempting to move to foreign countries but are held for ransom or are drowning or being killed before they ever make it. There's wars, massacres and ethnic-cleansings across Africa that get little or no coverage. Human sacrifice for good fortune is big in some parts of Africa, especially if you're albino or sometimes even family members kill their own. There's incidents from places like China and Myanmar that never make it to the news. Infanticide is rampant in India.
@@realtalk6195he's naive and believes he hears about all crime cases on the news... when really, there is so much crime in the world that not everything is reported. it is not possible.
@@NotSureIfSrs_x i mean i wouldve never heard about the case in the video if stephanie didnt have people to break those language barriers. and it's very recent, in 2003 the internet and news were nothing like it is now. its good to be skeptical of stuff but cmon now
I remember going to the mall as a kid....even up to college. My mom would make sure she can see me in the fitting room and washroom. That's why we never go to the washroom alone! Girls go together~
thank you for this , its so clear to understand .
I always put on true crime while at work and this lady is my new favorite I’m enjoying her energies rn
to all the researchers and the Soo family, thank you so much for all your hard work!
Yes, Im happy that Filipino Case is covered. But I'd to clarify this,
1. The snake man is not related to this case.
2. The robinson's mall in question of the urban legend is in manila.
3. Jovelyn case is in robinson's palawan which is almost 800km far from Robinson's galleria
😊
It’s so unusual to see Stephanie talk about a legend that I have been scared of since I was a kid. I truly believe that there is an authority figure behind this tragedy. I hope that she gets the justice she deserves but with the justice system here in the Philippines, unfortunately I have my doubts 🙁
honestly, at this point of listening to a few of Stephanies stories she covered, and hearing to what an extent justice is simply not sought after by those with power to ensure it, I just have to hope hell exists (I am not religious whatsoever) and all these sick, twisted, psychotic people will one day answer for their crimes. otherwise, there really is no justice out there. the innocent die in terrible ways, and the powerful get away with the most unbelievable crimes against humanity.

You two are freaking adorable. I love the back and forth with him off camera.
This is all so fascinating! I learn so much here along with my true crime! ❤
doing so many horrific cases must be so heavy. and you do much justice to the storytelling and the victims. I hope you take care of yourself, Stephanie. 🙏

This case is so so suspicious. I feel like there’s a cover up going on especially with the police. It’s really horrible that the police pinned the crime on the cousins when there is no evidence linking them to the crime even though they confessed. Although even though the cousins weren’t involved in her death, I think they still could’ve been involved in kidnapping her and she was brought into human trafficking. She made it out of the mall but she met with foul play while waiting for her bus. It’s also possible that while she was waiting for the bus, someone asked her if she would like a ride home and they ended up abducting her. Also, I’ve never heard of that legend from the Philippines about the human snake. That is the craziest story I’ve ever heard.
That footage was so fuzzy that the family couldn't even confirm it was her, so it would be very easy for police to say oh, here's grainy footage of a random girl waiting for the bus, which is what they did. So there's zero reason to believe that was her. Which means that she was somehow abducted from inside the mall. And the fact that the mall refused to release footage means that they are the prime susprects.
I find ur content one of the best on RUclips, thanks for your great work 👏👏❤very, very interesting 🤗.
I just came across your channel and I am in love❤ thank you for your content
Wow! I am really amaze that Stephanie's Team is covering more stories in the Philippines. If I may suggest, the NIDA BLANCA case. She is a famous and veteran actress here in the Philippines and she was brutally murdered. Thank you so much for covering cases in the Philippines! 😊❤

Oh yes. This story is almost forgotten by Filipinos. And the new generation doesn't know who Nida Blanca is now.
@@IreneEBoon reptilians are real tho.
i dont think i could watch this story its so sad and it is still unsolved.
She may have a Pinay VA.
I think I just jumped into Stephanie’s rabbit hole! I can’t help watching her videos from the mukbang to rotten mango vids. You are such a good storyteller! Plus your love of Jollibee and retelling of Filipino stories, I am becoming a big fan! 😍
Samee

Hey, just wanted to say you're such a pretty lady and you're an awesome storyteller, I could literally listen to you tell stories all day long, oh wait I do😂😂😂 great storytelling and awesome content!!!! ❤❤❤❤
first time i heard this story was in high school around 2011- it’s 2023 and sheesh !
gives me goosebumps
Thank you for covering this story, Stephanie. Living in PH, it's usual to hear cases where police would force people to confess crimes they did not commit and who knows whose switching forensics results in the background. You never really know. My heart goes out to her family. Another beautiful soul was taken too soon. I hope you can also cover the horrible and controversial story of the Maguindanao Massacre in the Philippines.
Changing rooms always freak me TF out… I always feel like somebody’s watching me 👀
Thank you for uploading BISS
Me too ! I always check all the corners b4 trying out clothes
Same so I just take the clothes back home, try them on, make a choice and go back to the store to change/get a refund.
I'm scared of changing room too imagine you are alone and then you are feel alone
Same. I wear masks whenever I go to changing rooms, washrooms etc. But I don't know how to feel about the floor just opening up 😭
I've said many times that some of these malls are so big, there's bound to be secret passageways and doors that no one notices. I've personally seen some doors intentionally camouflaged in malls across Philippines, US, and other places
there are so many holes in this case it’s actually crazy. wow this one gave me chills honestly
your story-telling abilities are phenomenal. I am 10 minutes into this video, the intro just started, and I am sitting in my room, eye watering involuntarily from the chills of disbelief through my entire body, while I am hugging a teddy bear out of sheer fear of a snake-human that may live under my house
Lol. Lucky bear. Lol. U funny. Hehe.
lol
No cause I was cleaning while listening to this at night and the whole time I imagined the snake thing watching me 😢😅
I'm from Philippines and this case makes me chill. My mom and dad always tell me to be careful when I'm alone. Thank you for taking your time to research this case. Fan from Philippines! Love you girl!
…
Im impressed how you have all the details about this one even the interview of Alice Dixon 👏🏼
The way that you DIG into these stories that I haven't heard any other youtuber cover, not to mention your palpable passion as if you've poured over all of these cases like the victim is your own family member... Your channel is a gem amongst rocks. Please keep doing what you're doing and everyone else please support her. Also your work isn't just entertaining but also useful, as some of these cases are unsolved so spreading their message might get to the right person. Sending love and positivity your way.
Finally! this mystery case in the Philippines is my actual favorite because until today I still want this to be uncovered. I don't think this is a closed case yet because there's still a lot of layers on this investigation but the authorities just took the easiest and safest route and option in resolving the issue.
For real!
Is there any other theories what might have happened to her?
Yes, Im happy that Filipino Case is covered. But I'd to clarify this,
1. The snake man is not related to this case.
2. The robinson's mall in question of the urban legend is in manila.
3. Jovelyn case is in robinson's palawan.

oh
@@sumayyahadetunmbi4347yes because from the original urban legend which is in Manila. Jovelyn's case happen almost 800km far from the Robinson's Galleria
She’s helping me with my anxiety depression keeping my mind busy without thinking I am depressed ☺️
I just found your channel this past week. I've been bingeing on your videos ever since. Last night I was rushed to the hospital and will probably be here two more days. It is your videos that are keeping me sane and entertained. I hate to say entertained when it's true crime and real people, but you are such a good storyteller. Thank you so much. ⚕️🏥🩺😷🥼👩⚕️💊👍👍👍
actually samee now ive been listening to their spotify podcast
I hope ur doing well now ❤
Being a tarot card reader myself thankyou for explaining the cards in your words because sometimes people talk them down purely because they don’t understand them ! I have been reading tarot for years and have helped many people and it makes me soooo happy to be able to help people .Thankyou for this video Stephanie 🎉
still feels like staring at a dark hole whenever I hear about this case. it's like we all know the answer but there's nothing more we can do about it. The sad thing is, we are just looking from the outside, how heartbreaking it must be for the family? 😔
@@IreneEBoon reptilians are real in fact emperor akihito is a shapeshifting dragon.
another angle on this. an instructor of her, where she is studying criminology, was reported to have liked her and was a bit aggressive on pursuing her but she didn't like that and ignore the guy. that guy is a cop. unverified. sad is someone got away with Jovelyn's disappearance.
A manager named karen?
that's like the ultimate boss.
Thank you for featuring this case as this is one of the case that left my heart shattered for the victim and her family. This case really left me with the idea that if you're against those with power/wealth, it is hard to gain justice. Stay safe everyone and especially to all my fellow Filipinos.
I’ve been watching all the Korean cases nonstop lately, it makes me happy that Stephanie is bringing light on more international stories! I’m excited for this episode because it’s a filipino case (screaming inside as a Filipino) :D
……..

11:20 this made me so happy I like these nice little moments during all the darkness.
i thought i was the only one. :') thank you.
Would you please do the Ayotzinapa 43 case? It would be very helpful on bringing light to the case.
Stephanie, you should look up the case of the four kids lost in the Colombian jungle, they were lost for 40 days and manage to survive all alone
I always remember this urban legend whenever I see that certain mall. Thank you and to your team for all your hard work in researching especially with these international cases!
the actress who started this snake lady thing debunked it recently too saying she only said it just for the heck of it. she didn't know she has started an urban legend 😆
tho it's not impossible that there are women getting snatched from the mall. even kids are getting snatched before I've heard, and it's for either human trafficking or to collect their organs. :(
Robinsons! 😄
@@revinaque1342then you should know Robinson’s Palawan is nowhere near as big as Galleria. Which makes the whole tunnel thing rather laughable.
@@oliviabantana742true
@@IreneEBoon Agree and this is just an urban legend that is being told when we were young.
The horrifying thing about this case is that it's not solved and the cops are getting away with it.
“You’re gonna meet a Korean girl and she’ll never stop talking” 😂
This channel is literally my emotional escape from final exams. I have my last one tomrrow, and I literally watch crime cases from this channel and the other scandals like the recent one with Dandan while taking breaks between studying!!! love you stephanieeee (and stephiance)
This is my real experience actually, our(me and my mom) real experience. When we were in a public restroom in a famous Mall specifically Robinson, the restroom were full of queue, every door has queue... And we still lined up. Minutes passed until my next turn, behind me was my mom. We waited and waited... Until more than 5 minutes or more has already passed, and no one got out of the cubicle... I mean we could notice it since the room were so full of people, and that time there is no such thing as physical distancing. And I decided to push the door a little and we were surprised, that all this time we waited for nothing. I really know that someone has gone inside the cubicle! But no one got out? That was the biggest mystery of my life. So somehow I believe in the urban legend of this specific Mall... (Sorry for the wrong grammar, im a filipina and English is not my first language, thank you for understanding)
Even the person behind my mom knew someone has gone inside the cubicle and no one has got out. And take note, that time, phone were not popular, or not always on people's hands, so most of us were looking either on the floor or others. So basically, we weren't preoccupied by the phone
Grabe nakakatakot naman .. 🙁
@@IreneEBoon reptilians are real tho.
@@IreneEBoonstop copying and pasting it everywhere....one or two places, but not everywhere thanks
@@theresafushiguro3107yeah holy shit that's creepy...I'm sorry I don't think I'll go to the Phillipines now
Thank you so much for your thoughts on card reading. What Jay is reading first are the playing cards...which is called Cartomancy which makes her a Cartomancer. The Tarot cards actually originated from the Playing Card deck. It falls in like with your thoughts as they originally were referred to centuries ago as "The Game Of Life". Not meant to be "concrete". However, there have been many times in my 45 years of card reading that information has really been precise and right on. You would love reading. I hope you look into this more. So much more I could write...but the more you read, the better you get and the better you get, the more you learn. I'm still learning. LOVE your shows! Thanks again! xx
Heard of this snake man urban legend. Didn't know how deep it was and this missing person case.
Thank you covering this, the Maguads case, the Chinese squid boat, the Sewol Ferry and the Sampong Mall Collapse. You have now a new subscriber.
You're an excellent narrator and researcher.
Please keep it up and thank you.
Also please take care of yourself ma'am. The topics hit very hard, understatement but after seeing the aforementioned videos I can't think of any other words to describe.
Thank you again.
I honestly dont believe a body could decompose that quickly... Something's not right. A body has been found in our hometown that has been missing for a month, with the kind of weather we had... I dont think its possible.
