On a humid Manila evening, a simple burger run turns unsettling when a blinding flash reveals a hovering silver orb—silent, deliberate, and gone in an instant. Set beside a WWII-era school rumored with restless spirits, this true account from Book 2 of True Philippine Ghost Stories (pages 20–22) by Jherry Barrinuevo blurs the line between everyday comfort and the unexplained. Was it an orb, a wandering soul, or something electrical like St. Elmo’s fire? We trace the tale’s roots in Filipino folklore and history, weigh the science, and explore how a childhood ritual can be forever changed by one extraordinary moment. Turn off the lights if you dare.No spoilers—just questions that linger long after the last bite.=======DISCLAIMER 📢This episode might be ad-supported.
