"Mamanyiika"
Some years ago, Abel was incapacitated by a passing car while his wife Gail was killed in a hit-and-run accident after a serious fight, leaving Abel widowed with his two children, Ara and Abigail. After visiting their mother's grave, Abigail picks up an old doll in a nearby barrow. A suspicious Ara demands her sister to throw it away. This culminates in a fight, on which the doll springs to life and comforts Abigail, who believes that Gail's spirit possessed the doll. Traumatized after being assaulted by the doll, Ara destroys it as Abigail watches. Abel, deciding this was the final straw for Ara, orders the doll to be disposed of in the creek. Soon, the doll kills two garbage men and returns to Abigail’s house, seeking vengeance against her after she receives a new set of dolls from her father. It is revealed that the doll used to belong to Dorothy Cruz, a woman who went insane after losing her child. One night, the doll attacks the family, with Ara gaining the upper hand. Taunted by the doll imitating her mother's voice, Ara shoots the doll after it tries to kill Abigail. Some time later, the doll is recovered by homeless children. "Isla"
A lost girl is separated from her friends while on a vacation. She is incapacitated by an unknown entity, which transforms her into an unrecognizable form. Andrea is accompanied by her friends Ces and Belle on vacation in a remote island. Upon setting foot, rumors circulate that a man named Ray had lost his girlfriend during a holiday in the very same place. Dismissing the hearsay, the trio spend the night with a bonfire. Ces, who has a knowledge of the occult, performs a ritual to help the brokenhearted Andrea find the man for her. Tensions rise as the disappearance of Andrea startles the group, with their friend reappearing in the morning with muddy feet. It is revealed that Andrea was led by fairies into a cave and was offered delicious food by an elemental as well as asking her to stay and offering to give her everything she wants if she decides to do so. Counseled by a witch doctor, Malay, Andrea is the next target of the elemental, whom Malay said was the king of the isle. Afterwards, they met Ray himself. A group of fairies attack the group's cottage, killing Belle and Ces. The elemental captures Andrea, with Ray and Malay in hot pursuit. In the end, Malay is killed, but Ray manages to overpower the elemental, saving Andrea's life. Andrea wakes up aboard a boat with Ray; however, she notices that the boat is not moving away from the island. It is revealed that it was just an illusion and that Andrea is still in the elemental’s cave with the elemental as "Ray". "Punerarya"
Dianne works as a part-time tutor for the Gonzales family, the owners of a funeral parlor said to be the lair of rumored aswangs. On her first day, she meets the patriarch Carlo, the children - Ryan and Sarah, butlers Aludia and Simeon, and the secretary Anna. After a series of successful tutorial sessions, it gradually became clear to Dianne the nature of the family: being photophobic, having a desire for entrails and other unusual activity in and out of the parlor. Dennis, Dianne's brother, dismisses his sister's stories; meanwhile, Ryan is accused of divulging the truth to Dianne, creating tension between Carlo and Dianne. The family lures Dennis, who was waiting for her sister outside. Unknown to him, he was used as a bait to force Diane to continue her work, but at the same time, sacrificing her life as prey to the aswangs. Carlo then revealed that they were once part of an ancient tribe, whose homes were ravaged by fire. Desperate, a widowed Carlo, being widowed set up the funeral parlor to cover up their true nature and to earn a living. This explained their photophobic features and dismissing Dianne before sundown. Dianne confronts the group, demanding they surrender Dennis. Throwing formaldehyde and setting the parlor aflame as a diversion, Dianne and her brother narrowly escape Sarah and Carlo, while Ryan, the only aswang member of the family that refuses to harm anyone, begs to go with her. Left with no choice, Dianne brings Ryan home, as the funeral parlor burns to the ground. As Dianne finds the first-aid kit to treat Dennis, she overhears his screams. She rushes to the den and finds Ryan eating Dennis' entrails. Ryan reveals that his family only eats living humans on their birthdays and just eats entrails from corpses to survive every day.
