One common Tagalog horror quote in stories is 'May multo sa dilim.' (There is a ghost in the dark). It sets a spooky mood immediately. The use of the word'multo' (ghost) and 'dilim' (darkness) creates a sense of fear as darkness is often associated with the unknown and where the supernatural is believed to lurk.
A tagalog horror story might also have the quote 'Nakakatakot ang katahimikan sa gabi.' (The silence at night is frightening). Silence in the night is often a sign of something wrong or something evil approaching in Tagalog horror lore. It plays on people's natural fear of the quiet when they are alone, especially at night, as it could mean that there is a hidden danger lurking.
