Does anybody knows what these are?

English is not my first language so I apologize for any grammatical mistakes. On the 26th of March, my younger sister and her friends found these folded paper in our street. She showed it to me and I found it really bizzare, our hair stood up. She also said that the plastic with a triangle, contained a cross (I am not sure if it was a pendant or wooden carving), but her friends took it and so they were not able to take a picture of it. Also, I believe this is not the original copy, but a printed copy cause it is noticeable. What I am certain of is that the original copy is surely written by hand.

My first thought was, these are used by 'mangkukulam' or witch because of the Latin words. I have seen a lot of witches in movies using Latin chants to cast spell. IDK. Let me know what u think.

Either teenage edgelords, or schizophrenic scribbles.

I wouldn't put too much thought into it.

Filipino here, I used to work in the Museum ng Katipunan as an intern. What you have there are replicas of Katipunan revolutionary documents against the Spanish colonial forces, meanwhile the ones with drawings are talismans or "anting-anting" as we called them. Filipino revolutionaries would wear them either as necklaces, handkerchiefs, or even clothes as they believe that they give them protection and strength as theu combat the Spanish and the local guardia civil. The Philippines is a devout Christian country and these can be seen as one of the many ways we would interpret a foreign culture by local means.

Seeing that these were printed chances are that these were replicas of actual documents and "anting-anting" they were probably for a school presentation or a local museum. The Museo ng Katipunan has the actual anting-anting used by the revolutionaries in display.
