Miguel Tanfelix had a harrowing experience while filming the horror movie KMJS' Gabi ng Lagim The Movie when he suddenly lost consciousness on a ship set.

In an interview with Nelson Canlas on 24 Oras last Friday, November 21, Miguel shared that the incident happened while they were shooting in the ship's basement in Manila Bay.

"Wala masyadong air flow na nangyayari sa set namin and then 'yung set namin pinuno namin ng usok. Eh sa scene na 'yun kailangan parang hysterical ako, so nagsisisigaw ako, tapos nakahiga pa 'ko sa floor, so nalanghap ko lahat ng usok," he recounted.

He said he had to tell the director to pause the scene as he felt he was about to faint.

"Sabi ko, 'Direk, Direk, wait, hihimatayin yata ako.' 'Yun na 'yung last kong naalala. Tapos [nang makamalay] nakapaligid na sa 'kin si Direk, may medics na diyan, umiinom ako ng tubig," he added.

According to Miguel, his blood pressure was checked and everything returned to normal eventually.

"Para sa 'kin nakakatakot 'yun kasi first time mangyari sa akin 'yon na parang gumalaw 'yung mundo tapos ako, hindi ko alam kung ano'ng nangyari sa 'kin," he shared.

Miguel is one of the lead actors in the three horror stories featured in KMJS' Gabi ng Lagim The Movie, alongside Jillian Ward, Sanya Lopez, Elijah Canlas, and several others.

The film is set to hit theaters on November 26.
