Here are some: :D
1. Magwalis lang sa umaga at hapon. Wag sa gabi, kasi malas daw. At dapat papasok sa bahay. Para papasok ang swerte.
2. Pag umaambon, pero may araw na nakalitaw, may ikinakasal daw na tikbalang o kapre o mga mythical characters.
3. Wag paglaruan ang kandila. Kasi mahihirapan ka matulog dahil lagi ka iihi (bangon ng bangon para umihi)
4. Pagnalaglag ang kutsara - bisitang babae. Pag tinidor, bisitang lalaki.
5. Kapag kumain ng may kasabay, wag magligpit ng plato hanggang hindi pa tapos. Kasi hindi makakapag asawa at tatandang binata o dalaga ang maiiwan.
6. Pag may kumakain at may aalis ng bahay, kailangan ikutin mo ang plato 360degrees, para walang masamng mangyari sa babyahe
7. Pagnaliligaw, baligtarin ang damit na soot.
mmm.. isipin ko pa if may maalala pa ako.. hehehe
Pero, kahit ganito tayong Pilipino, proud pa din ako at alam ko na lumaki ang mga Pinoys na magalang at masunurin sa nakakatanda. Hopefullu kahit new generations na, value pa din ang elderly kagaya ng past generations na Pinoys :D
DSOUNDZ konting dagdag from what i know.
2. wag daw lalabas kasi namimili sila ng magiging kamukha ng anak nila.
4. pag daw nakaharap maganda/gwapo, panget pag nakatalikod. lol
DSOUNDZ To add into what you've mentioned:
8. Don't sing while cooking/washing the dishes if you don't want to be an old maid.
9. If you have a dream about tooth/teeth being pulled out, it means a family or a close friend will die.
10. Don't open an umbrella inside the house because it will bring bad luck.
11. If a child's baby tooth comes out, throw it on the roof for good luck.
12. if you bite your tongue, somebody's thinking of you. If you ask another person for a number, that number corresponds to the first letter of that person's name.
13.Don't look in the mirror at midnight, you will see a ghost looking back at you.
14.If siblings get married within the same year; one sister/brother will live a happy marriage, the other a miserable one.
15.Don't step over someone when they're lying down, they will not grow taller.
16. If someone dies, children related to him/her should be lifted across the coffin so they won't get haunted by the deceased.
17.If a moth flies inside the house, it is a deceased family member visiting.
Tama alam ko po yan lahat
+Chii Junchu 9. If you have a dream about tooth/teeth being pulled out, it means a family or a close friend will die.(I experienced dreaming that one and nothing happened) 12. if you bite your tongue, somebody's thinking of you. If you ask another person for a number, that number corresponds to the first letter of that person's name.(My friends always ask me a number every time they bite their tongue haha..)15.Don't step over someone when they're lying down, they will not grow taller.(I accidentally stepped over my classmate last time and he made me go back in fear that he'd stop growing -_-).haha
No. 2 only happens kapag walang lumalabas na bahaghari... :)
- When it is raining and sunny at the same time, 'tikbalangs' are getting married
- If you are having a meal with your family and one has to leave immediately, you have to spin your plates (to avoid accidents)
- In wakes of murder victims, a chick is placed on top of the coffin for the chick to 'peck away at the perpetrator's conscience'
At the same time when it is raining and sunny, bakulaw's will give birth to a baby.
My mom always told me when i did the dishes that if i drop a fork a man will visit us, if i drop a small fork a boy will visot us, if i drop a spoon a woman will visit us and if i drop a small spoon a girl will visit us xD she said my grandpa always told her that :D
wow thats creepy!
Sean Christian Joy Cuizon I guess kinda xD but with a man/a boy/a woman/a girl she meant someone we know and not a stranger :D
what happens when you drop a spork?
touchmenot films a lady boy visits
I have been dropping spoons all night... no luck so far...
My aunt said dont walk over a person who is lying down beacuse she wont grow taller
Elizabeth Schuyler Hamilton they told me that person would die
Hi I think you know Hamilton
That’s what I got told...and I jump over my sister all the time 😎😡
I believe that XD
they said the person will die, that's why we didn't do it. but actually, it is very disrespectful to walk/cross over a person lying.
i was told that liking a comment makes you live forever.
Do you think i can live forever now? i just finished liking your comment
yeah but any comment, not just yours
Wow.... we have the same last name in our accs!
Like beggar
Waste of time
don't go to sleep with wet hair=nightmares... don't sleep with feet towards doorway=ghost will pull your feet... don't disrespect parents= demonio will come to get you at night.
TheGreen Cyborg hey wtf last night I slept with my feet pointing to the door
UDunnoMeHmmm???? Tadeo hahaha Mikey! aswang coming to get you!!! buahahahahaha
TheGreen Cyborg xD
TheGreen Cyborg you scared me!!
You're Scaring Me 😂
My mom is Filipino but my dad is white.. I grew up in a conservative part of the US without my titas and it makes me sad that I never experienced or even learned very much about my Filipino background/culture so now I am here watching your videos to learn more about where I come from! You are very funny thank you 😊
Rhi Is A Bean This is late .. I grew up the same . My dad is American & he was in the military
What do you mean by saying your dad is white? Is that a country or something
My parents used to scare me with a ghost named Moo-Moo the demon cow
I didn't really remember my parents specifically saying it was a cow
yep. i agree with you.
I know, they tell me that there's a "moo-moo"
I know but I don't remember them saying its a cow
I sometimes scare my nephew saying theres a moo-moo at your back. And i dont know that it is cow ghost
Don't sweep in the night. Don't cut your nails at night. Don't take a bath at night. Don't do anything at night. Don't breathe at night... Don't ______ night....
hahaha
that's not true
actually you do not sweep at night when there is a dead person in hour house
Potato Fries crazy dont take a bath at night you will go messy and bad odor like me lol
Potato Fries So no sleeping or doing laundry????
they always told me to respect the food like it’s alive or something
You have to respect it its because they worked hard for it
I am not a Pinoy...But when I lived there a neighbor had an ALBINO son. She told me that the reason for it happening was she accidentally looked at the sun while she was pregnant..The brightness was supposed to burn out his color....I spent about 3 months trying to prove that it was heredity. She finally believed me when a new educated priest agreed with me.....
She wasted twenty years of her life in guilt.
Jim
Haha such an interesting story! Wow!
I wont even bother to tell what I have been told about the ASWANG!!
Jim
um, wouldnt a Filipino be glad that her son is albino?
That would be a BIG no....They were virtually social outcasts...The boy was bullied his whole life and she was boycotted in the barrio and the rest of the town..Small town and lots of talk.....He was different in a country where if you are different you can become a target..Plus he could not go out in the sun so he went out at night only...Try to research beliefs in the Philippines..
When I lived in the province, there is this "albino" who has been the talk of our town, and to think that person actually lived in another town 10km away from ours. I believed he is also bullied by his peers and even adults, and nobody really cares. Sad truth.
When I was little my mom said not to go outside at night because there was an aswang and I still believe it
My mom: Don't go outside because there is a snatcher and I really believe it because its true. Lmao
Charlize Monaghan
Me too
Charlize Monaghan

I was told that if someone stepped over you, you wouldn't grow. I'm 3"2 but that's due to disability, I'm a LP.
ANG RAMING TAONG NAGSABI SAKIN NON
ako din naman to si tanga pg may dumadaan sakin sinisigaw BALIK!
I was in the province and they said if I smell cigars and body odor it's a capri.
my mom said that when i grow older and get my period was that i had to put it on my face levee it on for a minute then have a shower then walk up three stairs and jump down all of them in one jump so that i won't get pimples on my face :)
I highly suggest you dont do it.
Every Filipino has to get married at a full moon because it is for good luck and happy relationship of the couple
Thanks Mikey - enjoyed this! I presume you also visited a witchdoctor right? I've been possessed by a duwende before at Mt Isarog and I'm told its the only way to truly cure it.

If you bite your tounge you have to ask for a number from someone and look for the letter of it(ex:you got number6 so its letter F)
And the first person that comes to your mind is talking about you
they say if you don't eat dinner your soul would wander to find food when you become hungry later during your sleep and that when it tries to get rice from the "kaldero" a bad spirit will cover it while the head of your soul is taking a peek decapitating the souls head. it's crazy just to scare me when I didn't feel like eating dinner when I was a child
Joe Stinky same for me
hey thats not real cause i actually did sometimes cause sometimes i wake up at 4 and 3 am at the morning i am always hungry at that and i sleep back again
Joe Stinky thats a story in wansapanatym

I am a Korean who is living in the Philippines and I am learning about this kind of lesson and it helped alot for my lessons thank you!
My grandparents always say that if I take a picture with 3 people the middle person will die and I take 3 person pictures all the time and I say to them see no one died
My lola was big on this one... Hahaha
It was widely believed in my province that sleeping with your head/hair still wet will cause blindness. Lucky you Mikey :)
Itchy hands means money actually same with some of Indonesian myths.
"Do not wear black in your birthday. Instead of black, RED."
My mom said.
Srsly?! The ghost part just scared the heck out of meeee!!
My teacher said that if you have lice abd dont want it to get them out,the lice will fly going to the tree going with you
Moth: *appears*
Me: mommmm, theres a moth in my room!
Mom: AYY! DON TOUCH DAT! THATS YOUR LOLA YOU KNOW!
I was told that when i have a dream wherein all my teeth fell out, I need to bite wood.
it didn't need to ba a specific kind of wood, as long as you bite it.
at the beginning i was thinking, "what the hell is mikey's doing?!gurgling?!..and then, boom!Betadine endorser..great concept..okay, what's next...sanitary napkin...can't wait..
I was told that, if you're nervous for your job interview or etc, you have to put a coin on your shoes and wear it so, your job interview/etc. will be a success.
that explains the gargling after each superstitions ....
were Christian and my parents say that it is just superstitious belief and God didn't really make that kind of ghost or etc.
I mean kind of things
aziah danes same I'm Christian
The one that my family is still anal about is that people shouldn't leave when someone is eating! And if they really have to, the ones eating have to spin their plates around as the person leaves. It's to make sure they don't get into an accident
i don't think i shared this one....more gold to share!
haha funny

- cutting your babies/toddlers eyelashes, will make them grow longer
- babies should never touch the floor until they are 1 year old (i forgot why though)
- when leaving a cemetery, you're supposed to burn a fire on the cemetery and walk through the smoke, to not bring any ghosts home
- no pictures while pregnant, it's bad luck
- put a coin in your sock for good luck
- wear something round for good luck
- wear red on your birthday (or is that just a tradition?)
yup that's about the main things i've learned from my mom and family - wow we have such strange beliefs and i do believe in most of them :D
When I wanted to tell my mom about what I had dreamt the night before she always told me to talk about it to the flowers.
I don't know how I got here but I enjoyed your video
My parents said I shouldn't go to sleep between 3-4AM because it's the most un holy hour...
TheFieryFang Most of the time I get nightmares when I sleep at that time.. but I've never heard of this.. hoho~
TheFieryFang brad natutulog ako sa ganyang oras on a weekly basis at wala naman nightmares cguro dahil kumakain ako palagi ng asin meh d ko alam
Lagi ako nagpupuyat tas laging akong nakaktaulog sa ganyang oras pero ‘la nman akong mga nightmares 😂 diko nga maalala ang mga panaginip ko eh!
Fun fact: lagi kang nanaginip di mo lang maala
After a funeral, we jump or cross over smoke to keep the spirits away or to prevent them following us and we also go somewhere else before going home
sinusunod ko pa din yung pagpag. lol. better safe than sorry XD
bither26 same
I'm Filipino. My relatives told me to never skip breakfast,lunch and dinner,because if i sleep with an empty stomach my 'angel' will go hungry and start lurking for food and get stuck on a rice cooker or a crock pot.
hahaha funny..and sooo true! I am here in Ireland, and I use my lips to point something(i never do this but since I watched ur videos, I kinda like doing it)...and I enjoy doing it, it brings out the pinoy in me...lol
Andito ako dahil sa college activity
#Understanding the self
Apparently my auntie got a rash after trying to cut down a tree. Mum suspects it's a duwende.
🤣🤣😭😭🤣🤣🤣😂😂
My ex husband is Filipino, we lived with his siblings, grandma, mom n 1 of his bros gfs for sooo dang long.. Anywys the nostalgia is kickin in, his gma used to tell me about duende, tikbalang, aswang, kapre and about living in the Manila province etc etc. There so much folklore there, its so fascinating and really wanna visit 1 day! Lol anyways your vids are super hilarious, so glad I found your channels and cant wait to show him and his fam! 😁 Wishing you well and sending many blessings your way Mikey!
My mom said there is a monster living on the tree ands it’s an agta
Sweeping or using a broom to clean after 6pm is still frowned upon here in antique.... hope you could come here some day...
"Dwendes are real"My dad told me.
True
They love mushroom
Hey Mikey! Got an idea for you. Philippine government needs to run your videos in the airport for first time travelers to P.I. I sure could have used your TABO video...when I got there. Instead...I had to learn the hard way. Thanks for the fun and good advice!
I'm a pinoy when I was really young my nanay told me never to go into the woods alone at night because a chonok could get me
Ano yung choneck
+Baby Alive Dolls And More chonok
+Baby Alive Dolls And More hinde chonok chanak yun
+Khris/Flare Gamer ok salamat
wrong spelling chanak
Haha can so relate to the Duwende belief. I was born in Manila, but my mom's family is from Pampanga. So, when I was living there my mom told me I somehow angered the duwende and it cursed me to get sick. My whole family has told me the same thing too. I think I was playing and fell on top of their house something along the lines of that. I would always get yelled at for stepping over a person. So, when a person is lying down don't step over them otherwise, they won't grow taller. If your toilet is facing the door make sure the seat is always down otherwise your money is going down the drain.
4:48 (dying from laughter)
10 years old pa lang ako ngayon mahilig na ako manood ng video mo
That product placement tho
sir I'm gonna use your vid for my students.. this is such a nice example...
Don't forget the aswang, the white lady and that thing that drinks all of your blood
my 7 year old cousin calls me aswang
yorabnoy
Candice Mary Gwen what that mean
o no that's not nice it is a witch type creature
you mean the vampire
Do more of these
Ola Arinola ! HAHA Lol! 😂😂😂
My Grandma said that don't open umbrellas on a place that has a roof because ghosts will get attracted to the shadow and won't leave me alone. I was scared as heck.
binati ko yung cute na baby ng kapitbahay namin and my mom was forcing me na lawayan yung bata! baka daw "mabalis"? ngyaak!
Same here
My mom would say "don't leave the pan halfway covered." Her reason was that because the spirit of a passed over family member might get stuck in them.
•pag may makita na black cat bad luck
•pag may naglakang sayo hindi ka na daw tutubo/ tataas
Anong naglakang?

Jannine Pritz Piyao Ako pirmi ko nga lakaran maonang wa ko nitubo
I always see black cat tapos wala namang mga malas LOOOL
I married a filipina. Her son is now grown and has a family.
I asked why my newly born grandson has a squiggly mark on his forehead in a photo last year.
My wife explained he had probably hiccups. Further explanation was needed.
So apparently if a baby has hiccups, you pull a thread from the mother's shirt, and stick it to the baby's forehead with spit.
my mom told me that if you dont drink water youll turn into a zombie
What???
u won't turn to one you'll look like one XD not literally tho
No she's probably just jking my mum tells me that except for the zombie part, they say that so u can drink the water
my mom said if i look in the mirror at midnight, i'd see moomoo
If i drink coke my armpit will get black
Hmmmm I don't drink coffee and my pits are pretty light. Maybe there is truth to this one...!
***** ..haha!!..i should stop drinking coffee and coke then.. :D
1. Don't point at a rainbow coz if you do, your finger will be cut off. If you did, you have to lightly bite it to prevent it from being cut off
2. If any glass equipments/utensils falls accidentally and breaks, it means a loved one has gotten a serious injury
2. Don't sweep at night, you'll be sweeping off the luck from your house
3. Don't cut your nails at night, it means that you are cursing your parents
3. Close all windows at night because spirits or ghosts will enter the house if you don't
4. Always say "tabi tabi po" when throwing garbage/walking by/spitting on etc a place where there are not a lot of people present and there are a lot of trees especially at night to not disturb mythical creatures
5. Do not laugh if there are thunderstorms or else lightning will hit you
6. Do not play with pets especially cats when raining because a lightning will hit you
7. Do not eat the chicken's tail or else your boy/girlfriend will leave you
8. If you have a stye, it is assumed that you peeked at a pregnant woman's vagina
9. Every old Acacia tree is the home of mythical creatures so always pay your respect when passing by by saying tabi tabi po
10. If you see a person who doesn't have a philtrum (that canal thing between nose and mouth) it means he/she is an enchanted/supernatural being
11. Don't take pictures of a baby while its sleeping, it might bring harm to the baby
12. Whe you're in a cemetary, make sure you high jump on a smoking bonfire before leaving so that the spirits that has been following you around will not follow you home
13. Don't look at the mirror while raining, you'll be hit by a lightning
14. When swimming in sea or rivers, don't joke about a shark/crocodile/snake coz it might appear
I'm from Senegal, West Africa,and it's said that if your right hand itches you'll receive money and if your left hand itches you'll give money and if you don't collect your hair after brushing it and a bird builds its nest with it, you'll become crazy so or you flush it down the toilet or you burry it deep
+Mariy Ed Oh wow! Interesting! I have heard the bird's nest thing and always that that was only Filipino. Also, growing up they always said left hand itchy = money coming in! Hahaha funny beliefs! Thanks for watching! Mabuhay to you there in Senegal!
Mikey Bustos yes funny beliefs. i'm always happy when my right hand itches tho 😄 💸💸
thanks for replying and keeping it up with the good content👏👏
When i was in elementary my mom use to tell me never let your suitor/bf/lover or any boys touch your hand or else you’ll get pregnant😓😓😓
No cutting your nails after 6PM or else bad luck #IloIlo
P. Neo
Oh my gosh Mikey, you are pretty funny! This video just crack me up reminiscing how I was brought up in the PI when my family used to tell me these superstitions. lol
when it's raining and the sun is shining at the same time, a tikbalang is getting married and when you ligo under it you will get sick and never be cured na daw 😂
My lolo said to me "if it rains while there's a sun,maybe they're having a party above the clouds"
I could relate to this haha.. I used to live with my lola and there are lots of supertitions and beliefs I have to deal everyday.. :) Most of the time I proved it wrong :)
READING AND HEARING ABOUT THESE SUPERSTITIONS ARE FREAKING ME OUT! I JUST WANTED TO BE MORE IN TUNE WITH MY FILIPINO CULTURE BUT I'M GOING TO SKIP THE SUPERSTITIONS
MY FAMILY DOESN'T EVEN BELIEVE IN HALF OF WHAT YOU GUYS LISTED-
WHY ARE FILIPINO SUPERSTITIONS SO SCARY 😭
I know this video is old but, may narinig ako sa kaklase ko o AP teacher ko na "Bawal mag-walis sa gabi" then I asked my mom and she said "Kase daw winawalis mo daw yung mga espiritu o dwende"
FOR THE AMERICANS
I overheard my classmates or my social studies teacher that you can't sweep the dry leaves or the water in the gutters outside your house. Then my mom told me "becuase you are sweeping the bad spirits or the dwende (dwarf) away"
1. When you sing while cooking you'll get married to an older guy.
2. If you eat in different plates in one go/meal time you'll get married to several guys (depends on the amount of plates you've used).
3. When you're still eating and they have tidied the plates while you're still eating you'll never get married.
4. You're not allowed to cut your fingernails and toenails at night because it's bad luck.
5. You're not allowed to sweep at night because you're getting rid of good luck.
6. You can't sleep while your hair is wet, you'll become blind.
7. If you are going to have a wee outside because you can't have access to the toilet you have to spit on you're wee after.
8. You have to offer food to the dwarves if you have angered them.
9. During special occasions you have to offer food in the altar for your loved ones who have passed away.
10. If you want to have a flawless and hairless armpit don't remove the first hair in your armpit and wait for it to go away on its own. 😂
and many more. It really is more fun in the Philippines. 😍❤
Watching from 2018
My dad told me that if a black cat crosses at your way its bad luck but if you were the one who crossed at the cat’s way there’s no bad luck.
My parents also told me that if you saw a coin in the streets you should pick it up because it is said that an angel is watching over you.
when I was a filipino kid I was taught to always say "tabi tabi po" if I pee anywhere not in the house and spit at the spot where you peed with your saliva so the spirits will not follow me and not be angry
Here in Misamis Oriental, as a children we are used to believe that if we sleep hungry our souls will wander. In order to find food, our soul will look for cooking pots and if find one and we open the cooking pots our soul will be trapped inside cooking pots.
thanks kuya for sharing - so glad you made this! everything you touched on, so true! my mom would tell us these things all the time growing up ;p
Almost each locality has its own white lady. My brother dreamt of such a lady in white, long hair, and red eyes smiling at him. He was also cursed once by a dwende because he stepped on a mound. My maternal grandmother was cursed by another dwende as well.
My dad always told me that if someone leaves while you are eating you have to turn your plate so they will make it home safely, that if you are sleeping on New Years at the stroke of midnight you're gonna sleep the whole year and you have to have money in your hands so you'll have money all year (also the jumping lol), and that if you drop silverware you will have visitors. (Fork - Man, Spoon - Woman, small fork/small spoon - boy/girl).
when i was 2 to 3 I got many experience in seeing spirits in my house and on places where me and my family go, the ones I saw was a man sitting up on the tree and I told my mom what I saw, she told me softly dont make noise because it is known as a kapre
mikey bustos you scared me a lot on the ghost part.
Wow "ola arinola" hahhahahah astig talaga kuya hahahah
When I see a rainbow, one of my single relatives are married
Wag daw mag cut ng nails sa gabi, kasi baka maka nightmare
Gina Ramona Darvin Omila ughhhhh this one is something I’ll follow for sure

"I don't think we need the birds for that to happen" Tawa ang ng tawa dun Kuya Mikey!! hahahahaha!
Sobrang Late kaso....PINAANAK AKO SA GOOD FRIDAY--
Hahaha so accurate! Thanks Mikey, never knew we had some of those superstitions.
Here are some Pinoy superstitions i had growing up from my relatives1) Have a pocket full of coins on New Years and when it hits 12am shake like cause it brings fortune2) Never point at a rainbow, if you do, you bite your finger or else you will get an injury of some sort3) If you hear a loud bird sound at night it means that there's a witch outside of your house4) You don't randomly shake hands with people(especially women) incase they are witches else it will being you bad luck - From my lola5) Step over smoke before entering your house after visiting a cementary so a spirit cant enter your houseThese are just some.. So many more superstitions
I've gotten:
Don't put a purse on the floor or your money will walk away
Don't look at a full moon unless you have coins in your hand or you will loose money
And if you give shoes as a gift you have to ask for a couple of coins in exchange or else that person will step on you in the future..
