Another folk tale was popular among the fishermen of Valencia.

Sa unang panahon, the fishermen would go out together to catch schools of fish, and sometimes shark, pero there is a reason why fishermen would fish in groups and there was 2-3 fishermen per boat.

Apparently, during pre-spanish days, it was common for fishermen to disappear from their boats. I forget the bisaya word, but Lolo said kono that there were mermaids that would taunt fishermen, and when the fishermen were unaware, the mermaid would grab their hands. Bring them under the sea until the fisherman drowned.

Mao na sa una, it was discouraged kono to fish by yourself or when it was dark, because the mermaids were active at night.

When fishermen go fishing in groups, or whenever they are out at night, it is custom to throw a fish or two in the water as tribute to the mermaids. So dili sila mo bother sa fisherman.

I heard about this, too, bolingitboy. Hadlok!

You know during the late 17th century, the island of Bohol was under religious orders by the Catholic episcopacy? As the region was rife with witchcraft and demonic possessions. Many of those who practiced witchcraft were sent to the island of Siquijor by the Spanish Government in Bohol.

Remnants of such practices are alive in Bohol to this day.

What sends my chills is that even the Spanish Priests and Monks that worked to Evangelize Bohol and the Philippines even recognized the power of these witches. Their journals indicated the 'powers' of the islands prior to the arrival of Christ in the Philippines.

By the Grace of God, and the King of Spain, King Philipp II, Christianity was brought to our islands.

These practices--which is of the old animistic and paganistic past of our ancestors. For me, the hairs on my back rose when bolingbit talked about the tambaloslos.

Sa among lugar , ang tambaloslos usa ka tao ng bu****-buangon, yaga-yagaon,
naughty, pilyo ug walay buot.

Dili tingali hideous creatures of the night.

Well, not so long time ago I thought "kagwang" is a word to describe the same way tambaloslos is used but here in TB I learned that "kagwang" is actually a "hideous creature".

from what i know, the night creature which i earlier described is really called tambaloslos. i had chills up my spine the first time i heard this when as little children we were listening to ghost stories before going to bed... of course now, the term is used as a colloquial term to mean a person who is bu****-buangon, pilyo, way buot... by the way, kagwang is the visayan term for flying lemur, a flying mammal... i also heard that sigbin is a night creature belonging to the same league with tikbalangs but its appearance is similar to that of a kangaroo.
