Initial data
A local couple reported that their one-week-old boy, Dave Nagawang, was killed by an" aswang " (a mythical winged creature).
According to his parents and neighbors, Dave was found dead in the early hours of the morning with blood in his mouth and on the walls near his bed. It was rumored that Aswan had killed the boy. Neighbors reported hearing something more than a cat walking on the roof, and the sounds of wings flapping overhead, a strange bird chirping at night: "ik-ik-ik."
Subsequent sightings of the aswang or, as some say, the flying counterpart of the mana-nanggal have been reported in Marikina, Pasig, and Navotas. At the moment, aswan allegedly claimed the lives of an old man, an old woman and a middle-aged widow. It is believed that this creature is malicious and preys, in particular, on women, babies and small children.
It is reported to "look like a dog" with wings and glowing red eyes.
