The body of a mutilated woman fell from the sky. The caretaker\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003einvestigates only to be terrified by childish laughter from the woods that\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003ebordered the cemetery. In his terror, ran for his life ending up in the\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003ecustody of the local police station.The case fell upon the lap of Senior\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eInspector Manny Panganiban who was puzzled by the case and suspected\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003ethat the man in custody may both be the witness and the culprit. The only\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003ething that troubled him, was the absence of blood. Thus, ordered PO1\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eEunice Salve to research the same MO or anything that can shed light\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eupon the unique nature of the case. She came upon an article by a certain\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eDr. Javier that she assumed can help in the investigation. A meeting with\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eJavier revealed certain aspects about the community that was not common\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eknowledge. About similar mutilations in the past, all unsolved and about\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003ea house that everyone seems to have forgotten. Then people began to\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003edisappear. Ghostly manifestations occurred. And there is the deaf-mute\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003ethat grew up in the fringes of society, distrusting people and their good\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eintentions until he met Jennifer. The illusory feelings he had for her was\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eshattered and he withdrew from society. Alone and close to death he was\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003esaved by a malevolent creature that offered him life only to find out that not\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eall second chances are worth taking. With things getting out of hand and\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003ewith the approach of a typhoon, Panganiban, Salve and Javier along with\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eothers banded together to solve the mystery, find the abductees and put the\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003ecase to rest. Unaware that they were about to clash with dark forces that\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003ehad roamed the land for centuries and to a showdown beneath the bowels\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eof an old house that nobody knew existed.
