In this video, we will look at another group of Filipino mythical creatures called the Engkanto (also known as diwata). In Philippine mythology, Engkanto is a term used for environmental/nature spirits and magical beings that dwell on Earth.
The word Engkanto is derived from Spanish "encanto" which literally means enchantment.

An Engkanto can be a shapeshifting spirit, ghost, magical being, or humanoid creature (such as goblins, gnomes, and mermaids). Despite their magical abilities and supernatural powers, these beings are said to have many similarities to humans; they age, have children, and can be good, evil or neutral.

So here are the 7 most famous Engkantos in Filipino myths and urban legends!
