During a media conference held at Valencia Events Place in Quezon City on Oct. 27, Fyang and JM said they were excited to be part of a horror franchise like "Shake, Rattle, and Roll" that they used to watch when they were younger.

"Malaking bagay na mapasama ang isang baguhan na tulad ko sa isang project na tumatak talaga sa mga Pilipino," said JM. "I am overwhelmed po talaga. (It's a big deal for a newbie like me to be included in a project that really resonates with Filipinos. I am really overwhelmed.)"

Fyang, 19, said she was thrilled to be part of the horror genre movie, adding that she loves horror films.

"Mahilig talaga ako sa horror films. Mahilig talaga ako manood ng horror movies ng isang upuan lang. Sobrang saya ko noong sinabi sa akin na may gagawin akong horror movie dahil matagal ko na talagang pangarap na gumawa ng horror film. (I really love horror films. I really love watching horror movies in one sitting. I was so happy when they told me I was going to do a horror movie because I had really dreamed of doing a horror film for a long time)," she said.
