This Halloween season, ABS-CBN dares viewers to face their fears once again as “Kababalaghan VII: Pagkagat ng Dilim” premieres this October 26 (Sunday) from 9:15pm to 10:30pm on A2Z, Kapamilya Channel, Kapamilya Online Live (KOL), and the ABS-CBN News YouTube Channel.
Hosted by Kabayan Noli de Castro, the long-running Halloween special returns with all-new stories of real-life hauntings and supernatural encounters that will keep audiences gripping their seats and second-guessing every shadow in their homes.
This year’s spine-tingling edition unearths eerie happenings caught on camera, haunted spaces that refuse to rest, and ordinary people who found themselves face-to-face with the extraordinary. From cursed mirrors and restless spirits to unseen forces lurking in the dark, “Kababalaghan VII: Pagkagat ng Dilim” promises to blur the line between the living and the dead.
Featuring three different stories filled with horror, supernatural, and overall spookiness:
In “Lagusan,” a century-old house in Pangasinan becomes a gateway for restless spirits. Locals claim that a mysterious antique mirror opens a passage to the other side, unleashing footsteps, slamming doors, and ghostly doubles that wander after dark. When the portal opens, it seems like escape will no longer be an option.
Meanwhile in Pampanga, “Bodega” reveals how memories can trap more than just emotions. What was once a simple storage room turns into a dwelling place for vengeful spirits, captured in real CCTV footage. A reminder that not all things from the past should be kept, as some are better left forgotten.
And lastly, in “Photobomber,” a joyful class reunion turns into a nightmare when an unfamiliar dark figure appears in a group photo. What’s more haunting is that the presence behind the picture isn’t an illusion but a spirit that lingers, watching, and making itself known in ways in their lives that they can no longer ignore.
Brace yourselves for a night of suspense, mystery, and true Filipino horror that only Kabayan Noli De Castro can tell.
