iWant recently launched its newest limited horror anthology, “True Manila Encounters,” which premiered its pilot episode on Thursday, October 29. Produced by the award-winning CreaZion Studios, the two-part special dramatizes terrifying, real-life supernatural experiences submitted by residents across Metro Manila.
The mini-series features two distinct, spine-chilling episodes:
• “Undressed” (Premiered October 29): Starring Xyriel Manabat and Karina Bautista, this episode centers on a vengeful spirit attached to a piece of thrifted clothing. Pearl (Bautista), a woman trying to hide her third eye, must confront her worst fears when her coworker Mei-Mei (Manabat) unwittingly purchases a haunted ukay-ukay dress with a gruesome history. The pilot was directed by critically acclaimed filmmaker Rae Red.
• “Occupant” (Premieres November 5): The second installment stars Kaori Oinuma and Elyson de Dios as Ana and Jam, a couple whose long-distance relationship takes a terrifying turn. The haunting manifests during their routine video calls, leaving Jam racing against time to save Ana’s sanity from a relentless entity. This episode is helmed by acclaimed horror director Dodo Dayao.
Both episodes are available exclusively to subscribers on the iWant streaming platform.
