Award-winning journalist Jessica Soho created waves of excitement in Cebu as she brought the much-anticipated "KMJS' Gabi ng Lagim: The Movie" to the Queen City of the South. The event took place on Sunday, November 16, 2025, marking a significant promotional stop ahead of the film's nationwide release.
Star-Studded Cebu Appearances
The legendary host of "Kapuso Mo, Jessica Soho" drew massive crowds of dedicated fans who have followed her work for years. Soho appeared alongside talented actors Sanya Lopez and Miguel Tanfelix, creating an unforgettable experience for Cebuano supporters. The day began with an official press conference where the team discussed the highly anticipated horror film.
Following the media event, the stars moved to SM Seaside Cinema Lobby where enthusiastic fans lined up for photos, autographs, and brief interactions. Many supporters shared personal stories about watching the annual "Gabi ng Lagim" Halloween specials that have become a beloved tradition since 2013.
Three Terrifying Tales in One Film
The movie features three distinct horror narratives inspired by authentic Filipino paranormal accounts that viewers will recognize from the popular television specials. The segments include:
- "Pocong" starring Miguel Tanfelix and directed by Yam Laranas
- "Berbalang" featuring Sanya Lopez, written and directed by Dodo Dayao
- "Sanib" led by Jillian Ward under the direction of King Mark Baco
Each story expands on the chilling themes that have made the "Gabi ng Lagim" specials a Halloween staple for Filipino audiences nationwide.
Continuing the Cebu Tour
After the SM Seaside event, Lopez and Tanfelix continued their Cebu promotional tour with another meet-and-greet session at a different mall in the city. The actors enthusiastically interacted with mallgoers, posed for countless photos, and introduced their respective roles in the horror anthology.
The film is scheduled for its national premiere on November 26, 2025, promising to deliver the same spine-tingling experience that has made the KMJS Halloween specials a cultural phenomenon among Filipino viewers seeking authentic local horror stories.
