The night caretaker in a local cemetery became witness to a horrifyingevent. The body of a mutilated woman fell from the sky. The caretakerinvestigates only to be terrified by childish laughter from the woods thatbordered the cemetery. In his terror, ran for his life ending up in thecustody of the local police station.The case fell upon the lap of SeniorInspector Manny Panganiban who was puzzled by the case and suspectedthat the man in custody may both be the witness and the culprit. The onlything that troubled him, was the absence of blood. Thus, ordered PO1Eunice Salve to research the same MO or anything that can shed lightupon the unique nature of the case. She came upon an article by a certainDr. Javier that she assumed can help in the investigation. A meeting withJavier revealed certain aspects about the community that was not commonknowledge. About similar mutilations in the past, all unsolved and abouta house that everyone seems to have forgotten. Then people began todisappear. Ghostly manifestations occurred. And there is the deaf-mutethat grew up in the fringes of society, distrusting people and their goodintentions until he met Jennifer. The illusory feelings he had for her wasshattered and he withdrew from society. Alone and close to death he wassaved by a malevolent creature that offered him life only to find out that notall second chances are worth taking. With things getting out of hand andwith the approach of a typhoon, Panganiban, Salve and Javier along withothers banded together to solve the mystery, find the abductees and put thecase to rest. Unaware that they were about to clash with dark forces thathad roamed the land for centuries and to a showdown beneath the bowelsof an old house that nobody knew existed. Some will die, some will survive,others will find redemption and renewal.
