Wak wak Bullets

Wak waks are the equivalent of the American Bogyman, a legendary ghostlike monster that haunts the dreams and feeds the fears of children.

Since Wak waks can sense a pregnant woman and will come and steal the live fetus, Marissa has put bullets in the windows of our house to ward them off. I can attest to the fact that it works, too. Not a single Wak wak has tried to get into our house and steal our baby.

It makes me wonder what was used to ward off Wak waks before bullets came into existence. Did Filipinas put a knife or an arrow in the window?
