The Berbalangs[pronunciation?] are mythical creatures in Filipino culture, described as ghouls who eat human flesh. They feed by digging up corpses from graveyards or by hunting living humans using flight and other supernatural powers. They are associated with the culture of the smaller towns of Mindanao.[1] The lore on Berbalangs has similarities with that on Aswang creatures.[2]
