Largely crowded and overpopulated, Metro Manila serves as a beacon of hope & a promise for a better life for countless wandering hopefuls from near and distant provinces. Lack of space, a realistic housing program and a strictly enforced urban planning has led to the rise of informal settlers around the capital, including in areas deemed exclusive for the dead; the cemeteries. For a handful of families, there are those who do not thread in fear nor fear the “wrath” of the dead after they found a place to call home among the crypts within the cemeteries.
