Capítulo 4: Berberoka
The berberoka ensnares its victims by drinking enough water in a pond to cause fish to appear on its surface. When potential victims are attracted to the school of fish, the berberoka hoses them with water, drowning them and swallowing them afterwards.
The people from Apayao, Abra and Ilocos Norte believe in and fear a swamp creature called Berberoka. It lures victims by sucking water in the pond enough for a number fish to come to the surface. When the potential victims get attracted to the school of fish, the Berberoka drowns them by hosing water and swallowing them afterwards. Despite all their powers, these water ogres have a morbid, ironic fear of crabs.
They were compared to the Greek naiads, the nymphs of water elements. They have the ability to suck up all the water in a swamp or lake. Also, many elderly people believed that they use water to attack their enemies. They discharge a large amount of water (just like a fire extinguisher) at their victims until they drown.
Yet not known to many others, it is though very cruel and known in Ilocos Norte/Apayao/Abra.
