Ghosts: La Llorona



There once was a beautiful Hispanic woman who lived somewhere in either Mexico or the Southwest of the U.S.A. She had believed that she would never fall in love again or nobody would love her because she had children.

She did end up meeting someone and they fell in love. She had hidden the fact that she had children from him for a while. Eventually, she admitted to having several children to him. He had given her the ultimatum of "him or the children".

That night she had gathered her children up and told them they were going on a night stroll. They had walked to the river. One by one she drowned them. After she had done the deed she had gotten her lover and had told him what she had done.

Horrified he rejected her.

Realizing she never should have chosen him over them she went and drowned herself in the same river. She was hoping that she would see them again. That they would all live together in heaven, but when she got to heavens gate they barred her. In order to come in, she had to find her children's souls.

She walks around at night weeping for her children. She searches and searches for them. When she happens upon a child she mistakes them as her own. Since she had forgotten what her children look like. She drags the child to the nearest body of water and drowns them when she realizes that they aren't hers.

The legend is used as a warning to children in a form of curfew and to not wander by bodies of water at night.  It also varies on how or why the children die. Like the example above it was the mother, but in some versions, there is no lover and it was her husband that had done the deed or was the reason the children were killed. What is known is that she wanders trying to find her children.

Some say La Llorona had drowned her own children in a jealous rage. In order to get back at her husband for either stepping out on her or paying too much attention to the children. She then drowns herself.  In this version, she searches for her children in order to go to heaven or because she regrets it.

In other's, it's the husband who kills their children by drowning them. They didn't have enough money to feed all of their children. After La Llorona found out she had drowned herself in the same body of water her children were killed in.

Urban Legend: Aren't You Glad You Didn't Turn On The Light?

Kelly and Danny were complete opposites. Kelly was a bookworm, who was seen as smart and  responsible and Kelly liked to live life on the wild side and was seen as a party girl.  Despite their differences the two girls were best friends. When they had gotten to college the two roomed together in the dorms.

It was getting close to their first midterms of college. Danny, being who she was, wasn't worried about the midterms. She was invited to a party by a guy she liked and really wanted to go. When two got back the room they discussed their plans. 

Kelly was of course going to stay in the dorm and study. Danny wanted her to come to the party and enjoy the night, but wasn't successful in convincing Kelly. When Danny left she felt guilty she wasn't going to stay and study, but partying is a good way of releasing stress. 

It was already 3 a.m. by the time Danny got back. The lights were off and she figured Kelly was sleeping. She could hear her toss and turning on her bed and didn't want to wake her if she was already having a tough time sleeping.

In the morning Danny woke up to a horrifying site. Above Kelly's bed written on the wall in blood was "Aren't You Glad You Didn't Turn On The Light?" She automatically ran over and found Kelly was cold and was covered in blood.

This would mean the tossing and turning she was hearing when she came in wasn't Kelly having a rough time sleeping. She was being murdered and who knows how long the murderer spent in the room before Danny woke up.

Black Dog of Hanging Hills


Hanging Hills is a beautiful place to hike. It's mountainous and overlooks the city of Meriden, Connecticut within It's got great scenery and there's a saying some people use as a warning. "And if a man shall meet the Black Dog once, it shall be for joy; and if twice, it shall be for sorrow; and the third time, he shall die."- by W.H.C. Pynchon.

On Hanging Hills there are rare occasions where people see a black dog. The dog is said to be nothing unique in appearance. It's a moderate size has black fur, and nothing noticeable about it's appearance. he strange thing about the dog is that when he barks he makes no sound and seemingly disappears when people come close. There's never any evidence he'd ever been there as he doesn't even leave footprints.

Geologist W.H.C.Pynchon had written the earliest accounts of the mysterious black dog in 1898 Even though the legend had been around for much longer. Pynchon mentions he saw the dog and it had followed him to a restaurant and back about the path before he mysteriously disappeared around the area he first saw him. Marshall scoffed and claimed to have seen the dog twice already and the legend did not scare him .

Marshall and Pynchon was looking at a rock formation on the edge of a cliff. They noticed the little black dog approach them, and unfortunately Marshall slipped on the ice and fell to his death. Even though his death is labeled an accident many believe that the little black dog was to blame.

Many people claim to have the same experiences even over a 100 years later. There are even some deaths that people believe are caused from the sighting of the black dog today.
