    Is there really witchcraft in Siquijor? Where can I exactly locate them in Siquijor? I've been to many places but it seems that they are all fake.

    I have lived on Siquijor and explored the island over a long period and yes there is faith healers which are used by the poorer mountain folk as that is their only means to combat sickness but i can assure you there is no one dancing around fires with funny hats and sticking needles in dolls..

    Been to Siquijor last October and have seen very few (better said: None) frogs, so I suppose there have been few spells issued lately. Apart from that: a lovely island with beautiful beaches and lush countryside. Really enjoyed it (see our pics in the Picture Section of this Forum).

    yes spot on. my family often go to siquijor for "black majic" my uncles wife had a syst in her boob and some healer massaged it and they claim it went away also she had problems getting pregnant so they went there. my thumb was sore and i had it massaged and the healing never worked they just put some special oil on it
