From The Straits Times:
Toymaker Mattel has Barbie-fied a creature from Philippine folklore that has for centuries inspired terror and loathing among Filipinos for its habit of feeding on the hearts of unborn children: the manananggal.
Corazon Marikit is the latest to come out of Mattel’s Monster High doll line. In this reimagining of the manananggal, she is a winsome teenager dressed in the traditional Filipino attire of a baro (blouse) and a long skirt that tapers into thin, red fringes that are supposed to emulate dripping blood.
