“When I was brainstorming for our annual Halloween ball, I was looking for a name that was more Filipino and connoted fun, too. Wanted something that can be tweaked every year, depending on the zeitgeist of the times," he wrote.

"My dear friend @piealvarez came up with it that night and that’s why we have @shakerattleandball. Plus I loved watching Pinoy films and the classic horror of Regal shocker and the "Shake Rattle and Roll" series," he added.

He went on: "Looking for a venue was even more challenging. We went to countless venues and even looked at the old Manila Film Center among other historical landmarks but when I saw the National Museum of Anthropology and what was in it and what it stood for, I knew we had to do it there."

Sharing the inspiration behind his costume that rendered him unrecognizable during the event, Tim shared in one post: “Paying tribute to the 'Queen of Philippine Horror Movies' No, not Kris Aquino (but she is a queen, too).
