• It was November 1, All Soul's Day. It was a really dark evening and Pedro was preparing to go on his way to the cemetary. But when he looked outside of their window, he saw that it was really cloudy, and soon, started to rain. Sitting back on the sofa, he asked himself if he was going to go or not. After a while, the rain got harder so he made up his mind and said, "I'll just go tomorrow!"

    The next day, Pedro left his house at 8 o'clock in the evening and went on his way to the cemetery. As he was walking down the street, he spotted a huge balete tree. He heard rumours that a really scary and huge Kapre resides on that tree. He didn't believe in such stories, though! So he just moved on...

    At 10 o'clock of the same day, Pedro was walking home on the same path he took in going to the cemetery. There, he spotted the balete tree again. Doing what he did earlier, he just ignored it and moved on.

    But something held him back. Somebody was whistling at him! He looked back but there was no one there. Just when he was about to continue home, somebody whistled at him again! This time, when he looked back, he's heart jumped up to his throat when he saw that somebody was standing about 3-4 feet from him, wearing a black robe and his face covered with a black hood.

    "AHHHH!!! WHO ARE YOU!?" he screamed, pointing at the suspicious figutive, his face paler than snow.

    "Calm yourself!" this person said. "I have come to give an offer to you!"

    This person pulled out something from his hood and revealed a black book.

    "This book contains the worst things that you can think of! Full of horrors and more! And I shall give it to you for Php 700 only!" he said, his face still hidden behind his hood.

    Pedro was still shocked, but he grew suspicion to this guy so he said, "N-no... I'd rather not..." He turned back slowly when suddenly, this guy raced up to him and threatened him, "Take this and give me Php 700 or DIE!"

    Frightened a little, Pedro quickly pulled out Php 800 from his pocket, handed it to this guy and took the book. Then slowly, he backed away.

    But before leaving, the hooded guy called out, "You will regret once you've read the LAST PAGE!"

    Pedro looked at the book then looked up to the guy, only to find him gone!

    Frightened by the encounter, Pedro ran home.

    After a couple of days, Pedro was found reading the book quietly whenever he can. That book DID contain horrifying things and the lot. But something kept bothering him... The words that the guy he got the book from said... "I will regret when I read the last page?" he asked himself. Stopping once in a while to think about it, he just read on.

    A couple of days passed and he was near the last page. His excitement and nervousness increased as he drew near it.

    One faithful day, he had read all the contents of the book... all except for the last page.

    Gathering up courage, he flipped the page and scanned it. He suddenly stopped, his eyes extremly wide and shouted, "NOOOOOOO!!!"

    ~The End~
