Historical Information

In the folklore of the Philippines, the Tikbalang (also called Tigbalang, Tigbalan, or Tikbalan) was a creature said to lurk in the mountains and forests of the Philippines. It is generally described as a tall, bony humanoid creature with disproportionately long limbs, to the point that its knees reach above its head when it squats down. It has the head and feet of an animal, most commonly a horse, and is sometimes believed to be a transformation of an aborted fetus which has been sent to earth from limbo.

It travels at night to rape female mortals. The raped women will then give birth to more tikbalang.
