tiktik -- true ba?

[ana mimi]

creepy naman ng story mo sis.. naku, preggy pa naman ako at bubong lang din kame, walang kisame..

[snowyice]

ayos sa mandaluyong!  Sabagay dito sa amin sa manila yung kapitbahay daw namin dati buntis tapos parang may tiktik daw sa taas tapos pinatunog daw nila yung buntot pagi then said sige magpakita ka then nawala. Dunno kung totoo kasi hindi naman sa akin kinwento ng kapitbahay namin but I did saw their buntot ng pagi sa house nila.

[sweetsorrow]

naku last week sa laguna natulog kami ni BF sa bahay nila. Wala din kisami doon.. Nagising ako and si BF tulog na tulog, sobrang praning ako kasi ang ingay ng bubong, ngayon pala hangin lang.. Hindi ko siguro kakayanin kung magkaroon ako ng experience sa tiktik.. Kaya every night nagdadasal ako na maging okey kami ni baby..

[ana mimi]

kaya nga e.. katakot...
naku, gabi pa naman ako umuuwi..
takot ako..

[glitterysugar]

naisip ko lang, gusto din ba ng mga tiktik pag dogs yung preggy? buntis kase yung isang shih tzu namin and i dunno kung imagination ko lang pero parang may naririnig ako na weird na sound in the middle of the night. nagigising lang ako dahil sa sound na yun..

Nag-backread ako, ang dami pala instances sa Mandaluyong. I think kapag mapuno ang isang lugar dun nagpuputa yung tiktik kasi when my mom got pregnant naman with our youngest, 2 years after my first tiktik experience wala naman tiktik and to think sa Nueva Ecija yun, asa "bayan" kasi kami and there were no trees in the area unlike sa Mandaluyong there were giant star apple trees sa paligid ng bahay ng auntie ko.

Yup.  Location is a major factor to know what unnatural visitor you might be having.  No idea though if animals are also targets of such but I won't dismiss the possibility.

^parang kulam mana mana

[stormy_princess]

kahit nasa Manila ako i have this belief na true talaga ang tiktik..

[Roselovesyou]

Grabe mga sis, ilang araw na ko tinitiktikan ng ik-ik na yan.. narinig na rin ng husband ko at naniwala na siya.. sobraang takot ako sis, tapos kanina lang mga 7pm sinisitsitan ako. ako lang naman ang tao sa taas namin.. ano bang effective na pangontra mga sis.. taga dito ako manila.. kaya nakakaloka kasi nandito ako manila may tiktik pa amp!

[thebratinella]

^sis, maghagis kayo ng salt and bawang sa roof. maglagay ka na rin ng bawang and salt sa room. yung iba bumibili ng buntot ng pagi sa quiapo for protection. dad ko may binili din dati na oil na nakalagay sa bottle. pray. huwag niyo paramdam na takot kayo. lola ko nagpaparinig pa dati sa tiktik pag alam niya malapit lang.

[CityHunter]

I disagree.  IF you sprinkle salt on your roof it'll just be blown or washed away.  And any residue will just cause rust.  Bawang may just roll away, blown off or washed off rin.  The appropriate solution is to MASK the presence of the subject - in this case the pregnant girl - and place something too to deter it from trying to consider the subject as prey.

Sampaguita or any jasmine flower works wonders for this kind of need both as a masking AND protective tool.  Buntot pagi may work because of the natural element it is BUT have you considered the karma you have incurred by using a part of an animal which is better left off in nature?  You can do the same or even better using your palaspas.  For those of not the Catholic faith best ask your priest or minister for an equivalent.

Besides, a shotgun will just work as well in this kind of things yun lang make sure you are a good shot and not trigger happy.

The oil is just to warn you of their presence.  It cannot effectively keep these away especially if they come na with their master.  Those that prey on the pregnant are either just out to feed but may also be scouting something for their master.  Yun how it is in the animal kingdom ganun rin sa kanila.

kwento ng mom ko, yung pinapanganak daw niya ako eh may tiktik na umaaligligid in the form of paniki. kasi bagong lipat lang kami nun sa cavite, mapuno, mabundok kaya marami talagang mga bats. plus may tanim pa kaming puno ng saging.

pero dedma lang daw siya sa ingay ng tiktik. wala namang nanyari eh hanggang pagiingay lang daw ang ginawa.

sa panahon ngayon, may naniniwala pa pala sa tiktik. napanood ko nga sa face to face pinagbibintangan niya yung isang kapitbahay na aswang, tapos nagiging tiktik daw nung magbuntis siya. e napagalaman na malakas pala uminom at may hisory of shabu yung nagbibintang kaya hindi pa rin marule out kung totoo yung sinasabi niya.  kakaloka lang ang mga sabi sabi about tiktik, aswang, etc.

[CityHunter]

Hi, qt_ben17.

Yup.  Tiktik and their likes are very much real no matter how others may dismiss it as superstition.  If you think such is not true then best ask yourself why does ALL major religion still employ exorcists.  FYI.  Tiktik, kapre, tiyanak, etc. are categorized as fallen angels of a lower level nga lang. 

Its good that nothing happened during that event in your mother's life.  You should thank God that He kept you and your mom safe from harm.  There are experiences better left off unexperienced in this world.

However, that doesn't mean we should lightly dismiss nor ignore those drug- or alcohol-addled minds of some folks caused unnecessary fear to people.  In some cases, those can be attributed already to possession but that's a whole different topic.

[thebratinella]

cityhunter, bakit sabi nila kumukulo yung oil pag may aswang? paano nangyayari yun? matagal na ako nacucurious how it works.

[CityHunter]

There are certain items in this world that when exposed to the presence of the unnatural would react in a certain manner.  In feng shui, one reason why the loupan is used isn't only to determine the auspicious and inauspicious directions AND locations but also to check if such presences are present.  For the magnetic needle WILL react to their presence.  Sa oils used for such ay may mga hinahalo diyan which react to the presence(s) of such.  Now, yun oil is simply to make it more noticeable sa mga untrained eyes. 

Example.  Not unless one has been trained in the use and reading of the old school blood pressure instrument hindi mo maintindihan what those readings are.  The same applies here.  Now, isipin mo yun oil is simply a more user friendly tool.  In our example isipin mo the traditional blood pressure instrument has been replaced by a digital one.  Mas easier to read and kung high-tech pa ay may magsasalita or even a printout. 

Actually, one doesn't need such naman kasi each of us has a built-in warning device - our sixth sense.  Yun lang some of us choose to ignore or tune it out kaya hindi lang napapansin. 

I'm sure yun iba sa inyo nanonood yun mga ghost hunting shows.  You'll note na temperature is another way to determine the presence of such.  Yun iba naman use animals. 

Now, why is it parang hindi natutuloy yun attack then.  As just like a thief caught by the perimeter alarm so rin sila.  Unfortunately, dahil passive lang ang provided measure of defense ay these unnatural beings will try to find another way to get to you.  Some would ask then that you carry in your person such items which are in a way okay rin.  Unfortunately, what if yun na-encounter mo is more than the usual?  The bottle will simply explode dahil hindi na niya kaya i-contain yun chi presence of such.  The same applies sa thermometer, etc. na hindi na kaya yun kailangan nila i-read. 

I can't say what the contents are as it varies from one to another (and syempre secret na rin yun and even if I don't use it ay I respect rin those who do as not all use this for bad o selfish motives).  Ang masasabi ko lang ay if it works as advertised ay don't be contented with just that.  You've just realized you've been a target by the unknown and its high time you call upon Big Brother.
