Legend:

Collected from Internet:

There is a group of young campers who spend the night at one of those mountains. One of them felt uncomfortable to sleep in the tent because its hot and crowded, she decided to go outside and sleep on a sleeping bag were the air is much colder. After few minutes of sleep she heard this strange noise of a landing aircraft, when she opened her eyes she saw a flaying saucer landing in front of her, she felt blinded by a light and when she woke up she was on the top of the other mountain away from her friends. Her friends found her and she said she doesn't remember anything after seeing the light.

This sacred mountain located between Laguna and Quezon, is rumored to be a vortex for the supernatural. Many claim it to be the landing site for the extra-terrestial Ashtar Command, as witnessed by hundreds of people including a TV crew who filmed it.

There is this set of twin Mountains, Known as Mount Banahaw and Mount Cristobal. Both sacred Mountains were feared by campers. Both Mountains were said to be infested by Engkantos (Fairies), but we won't talk about fairy stories.

Truth:

This mountain is home to many religious sects ranging from mystic Catholics, to Christian sects with far-fetched beliefs. One group believes Jose Rizal and Jesus are one and the same (they are called "Rizalist"); another thinks Christ's second coming will be at its peak; while another's cherished relic is a piece of paper with ink scribbles - supposedly written by the Christ child- "Santo Nino".
