Shake, Rattle and Roll 8 is a 2006 horror film and was an entry for the 32nd Metro Manila Film Festival. The film is the 8th installment of the Shake, Rattle & Roll series and contains three segments.

Bearwin Meily and Keanna nReeves lead the cast of the first episode of Shake Rattle, Roll 8: 13th Floor. It tells the story of birthday planners who plan a party at the 13th floor of the house. Dismissing the superstition of Friday the 13th, they went on. Along with them are Joseph Bitangcol, Roxanne Guinoo, Janus Del Prado, singers Robert Seña and Isay Alvarez, and child actors, Jolina (Krystal)Reyes and Aaron Junatas. It was directed by Rahyan Carlos.

Twenty years ago, to be exact, October 14, 1986, an orphanage was burned down by fire triggered by a burning paper. Many of the orphans died including their matron. Now, October 14, 2006, twenty years have passed; this is where the home of a girl named Alex(Krystal Reyes) erects.

One day, her parents Diana (Isay Alvarez) and Oscar (Robert Seña) hired a group of birthday planners to organize a birthday party in their suite. The party organizers led by Sonny (Bearwin Meily), the cook, Marge (Keanna Reeves), the assistants, Gino (Joseph Bitangcol) and Alyson (Roxanne Guinoo) and the magician/clown, Jun (Janus Del Prado) went to the condo and examined the place. As soon as they entered, they began to feel the presence of lost souls; they felt this especially when they rode the elevator.

Upon stepping at Alex's suite, the group began to feel eerie things. Dismissing it, they started to organize the party. After inviting a couple of children, they happily started Alex's birthday. Unknown to any of them, the children they invited were the lost souls of the children who died in the aforementioned fire.

The presence of the souls disrupted the party and the chase began. The spirits manifested themselves altogether and the original 14th floor where the party was held was changed to 13. After the chase, the lost souls reappeared in the form of ghosts of children. The former Matron Jene explained them that Alex herself has a connection to them: the fire happened at Oct.14, 1986 while Alex was born in the same floor where she [Jene] died ten years later, Oct. 15, 1996. It was also revealed that the party organizers are both the only survivors and the reason why the orphanage was burned. Eventually,the ghosts forgives the organizers and departs for Afterlife.
