| 词条 | List of Philippine mythical creatures |
| 释义 |
The following is a list of Philippine mythical creatures. Each ethnic people in the Philippines has their own sets of belief systems concerning mythological creatures, demons, and monsters. Each creature was initially unique under each ethnic people's culture. But due to nationalism, various creatures from various ethnic peoples have went into the limelight and have been absorbed by other ethnic peoples. Mediums such as television, radio, and books have enhanced the spread of multiple creatures between ethnic peoples in the country. Additionally, due to colonialism, many creatures of Western origin have also been inputted in the beliefs of many natives.[1] Among the most known creatures in Philippine mythology are the aswang, tikbalang, kapre, tyanak, pugot, and engkanto.[2] List of Philippine Mythical CreaturesA
