The kapre is a tree-dwelling creature in Philippine mythology. They are invisible to normal people and because they can't be seen, they enjoy playing tricks and confusing people who happen to wander off near their dwelling places. This is why Filipinos living in rural areas suspect Kapres to be the culprit whenever someone suddenly lost track of his trails in the woods or in the mountains without a logical reason.

Although invisible, the kapre is believed to appear as a male tree giant with thick black hair covering his body. It also has a beard. A kapre only wear a loincloth or bahag and possesses an enchanted belt that makes them invincible to the human eye. On the other hand, other accounts mention that kapres appear naked or have leaves covering their private parts.
