Herlene Budol Shares One of Her Most Terrifying Experiences
HERLENE BUDOL – The actress and comedian shared one of her most terrifying experiences.
During an interview with “I Juander” for their Halloween Special, Herlene recounted a random woman who warned her that she looked headless. “May nagsabi sa akin na hindi ko naman kakilala. Tapos tinapik niya lang ako, sabi niya sa akin, ‘umuwi ka na.’” Herlene recalled. “Sabi ko, ‘hala, bakit naman? Ba’t ako uuwi?’ Tapos sabi niya sa akin, ‘ano kasi nakita kita? Wala kang ulo?’ Sabi niya sa akin, ‘Neng, umuwi ka na, wala ka ulo,’,'” she added.
Realizing the gravity of the warning, Herlene chose to head home. “Pagkatapos niya akong sinabihan, umuwi talaga ako. Kasi siyempre hindi ko na naman kilala. Tapos pinauwi ako ng ganu’n. Tapos sasabihin, wala kang ulo!” she said.
In Filipino culture, being seen as ‘headless’ is considered a bad omen. To counter this omen, it is recommended that anyone who encounters a headless individual should notify them and advise them to burn their clothing.

She is popularly known as “Hipon Girl” and “Magandang Dilag.” Budol began her career in entertainment as a co-host on the Philippine variety game show Wowowin, where she gained fame through her participation in the segment “Willie of Fortune,” eventually becoming a regular co-host due to her comedic talent.
