Real-Life Possesion Takes Place in the Taping of ABS-CBN's "Hiwaga!"

 A woman actually got possessed on the set of “Pinoy True Stories: Hiwaga” while taping an episode for ABS-CBN’s newest afternoon current affairs show anchored by Atom Araullo.

While spirits questors are searching for explanations to the paranormal events happening in her home, the episode’s subject Chai was possessed by a girl named Michelle instead of a mysterious guy believed to be haunting her ever since she moved in.

Having lived in a cemetery when she was a child, Chai has had an open third eye that gives her the ability to see a child’s lost soul, a bloodied white lady who hitches rides on tricycles, and even creatures in trees whose intentions she does not understand.

When she finally decides to leave the province in search of peace, she discovers that her home in Caloocan is still haunted by a mysterious man who left not only his photos and bag behind but also his psychic imprint.

What really happened when Chai was possessed by a spirit? How can one have an open third eye? Is it a gift or a curse?
