520			_aThe Philippines is a historical country, full of diverse cultures and beliefs that have been passed down from generation to generation. Literature in all forms makes a significant contribution to a country's culture. Geographically, the Philippines includes various islands and ethnic groupings, resulting in a wide spectrum of mythology and superstitions. Unavoidably, even after being thoroughly Westernized and Christianized, some Filipinos continue to believe in such creatures. The Philippines' rich culture, and these cultures include many mythical creatures and folklores that are slowly but surely fading due to modernization. In this study, the researchers focused on the different pre-colonial Panayanon mythical creatures and folklores, which range from tales of the gods, goddesses and other supernatural beings to stories of mythical creatures such as the aswangs, tikbalangs, and many more. These stories and beliefs are not just mere tales, but they are part of Filipino heritage and identity. They help us understand our past and the people who lived before us, and they help us appreciate the beauty and complexity of the culture that we have today. With the understanding of these stories and beliefs, we can keep these traditions alive and pass on to the next generation.
