S5 E5: The City of Silent Screams

Update: 2006-01-31

Description

Season 5, Episode 5: The City of Silent Screams – The Guinsaugon Landslide. In this deeply unsettling episode, we journey to Saint Bernard, Southern Leyte, where the devastating 2006 Guinsaugon landslide swallowed an entire village in an instant. With over 1,800 lives lost and only 53 survivors, this story is about more than the tragedy—it’s about the silent echoes left behind in a place erased from maps but never from memory.

Hear haunting accounts of a land heavy with sorrow, ghostly whispers, and rituals born from grief and reverence. Explore how ancient beliefs and modern reality intertwine in the Philippines, offering a lens to understand loss, remembrance, and the fragile bond between people and the earth beneath their feet.

Listener discretion is advised due to the intense themes of sorrow and loss in this episode.
