The Review

Perversion has a beginning and has an end. That is what Astral Projection is all about. I'm going on ahead and tell my review as I explain the important plot points of the story. A man named Jerrol is capable of performing Astral Projection. For those who don't know what this ability is, it's simply the ability of a person to separate his soul from his body but is also capable going back. Temporary death, so to speak.

Palatandaan (Signs)

Written by Maria Cecile Chavez

Illustrated by Danilo Pascual Ramirez

The Plot

A family living in a village is haunted by many signs in one evening. It starts during an evening vigil when sounds start to emanate from the surrounding environment. The grandmother takes these as a sign that something bad is going to happen and warns her grand children. Other signs they experience are lizards slapping the ceiling with their tails and the full moon. Sure enough, some odd looking creature sneaks from under the house but the eldest comes in to whip it with a stick broom. Assuming the creature has left, they decide to move out to another location. One of the children in the family decides to whistle at night. Naturally, the grandmother is there to stop the child from whistling, warning him of the negative effect of summoning bad spirits. The child then asks the grandmother to tell horror stories. The grandmother disagrees again.

Ghost Adventures Crew (TV Show) Review

The Review

We've seen dozens of shows on television about investigating paranormal phenomena. Many of these shows start off by a crew of investigators going to a location and interviewing the owners, caretakers, or witnesses to get an idea about the history as well as hotspots for haunting. Once all the necessary information has been gathered, the crew is left alone at night on location to investigate and gather evidence. The crew usually ask spirits questions and record them on digital recorders. Visual evidence is gathered via infrared or nightvision cameras or in some cases, full spectrum cameras as the ones used by Ghost Hunters International and Ghost Adventures. The investigation can turn out to be either boring, mysterious, or exciting or a mix between the three. When dawn breaks, the investigation stops and evidence is presented to the owners or caretakers of the sight to get their opinion.
