Some houses don’t scare you right away.They wait.They feel normal in the daytime. Familiar. Safe. But at night, something changes. The silence feels heavier. Certain rooms feel occupied even when they’re not. And you get the sense that the house remembers things no one talks about anymore.In this episode of True Philippine Ghost Stories Podcast, we step into a quiet Quezon City home where nothing seems unusual at first. It’s not abandoned. It’s not isolated. It’s the kind of place people rent, live in, and raise families around.And that’s what makes it unsettling.Small things begin to feel off. Objects don’t stay where they’re left. A child starts saying things adults are quick to dismiss. There’s no screaming. No warning signs. Just a slow realization that the house may not be as empty as it should be.Ghost Child in the House is a story about silence, neglect, and the kind of presence that doesn’t want to scare anyone—only to be noticed. It explores how homes in the Philippines carry memory, and how some stories refuse to stay buried, even after the walls are rebuilt.Listen closely.Some hauntings don’t announce themselves.They wait for you to live with them first.Copyright Disclaimer: This episode is inspired by material from the True Philippine Ghost Stories collection and is presented as a narrative adaptation, commentary, and retelling for podcast development.DISCLAIMER 📢This episode may be ad-supported.
