  2. HISTORY In older days the pangangaluluwa's purpose was to represent the souls of the dead circulating amongst homes in search of prayers and alms. It is based on the belief that the suffering of souls in purgatory would be lessened if the living would pray for them.

  3. Date of Celebration It is held during the celebrations of Halloween (October 31), All Saints’ Day (November 1) and All Souls’ Day (November 2) PLACE OF ORIGIN This tradition was popularly practiced in Quezon Province.

  4. PURPOSE OF THE ACTIVITY The whole point and idea of a “pangangaluluwa” group is to represent the passed away people going from door to door asking for alms and prayers from the living. They are also the representatives for the souls stuck in purgatory that ask for small gifts from the houses that they do visit.

  5. MUSIC Pitong Sakit – A song sung during pangangaluluwa popurlarly practiced in Tiaong, Quezon A group (usually kids) would go house to house and sing this popular verse:

  6. Lyrics sung: “Kaluluwa’y dumaratal Sa harap ng durungawan. Kampanilya’y tinatantay, Ginigising ang may bahay. Kung kayo po’y maglilimos, dali dali po ninyong bigyan at baka po mapagsarhan ng pinto sa kalangitan. Palimos po! In english, The souls have just arrived, Across your window side,Bells are being ring Waking up the living, If you will spare us alms, Please hurry up and give us some, The heavens gate , Will close in time, We are the lost soul, From the purgatory we have arise, Alms!

  7. STATUS IN PRESENT In today's Philippines, singers perform a verse about the souls' deliverance from purgatory and ask for gifts at the homes they visit. This activity is still held during the celebrations of All Saint’s Day and All Soul’s Day.
