Espooky Tales

Tales of Duendes (gnome-like creatures) are found all over Latin America and they are usually considered annoying and mischievous, not malicious. Except for certain tales, in which duendes are blamed when children, men, women, people go missing. Today, Cristina tells Carmen (MJ is out) about different cases from the Missing 411 subreddit involving duendes, one story that takes place in the Madidi National forest and a few duende listener stories.

Queretaro has a lot of haunted history. In 1619, one young girl claimed to have been thrown into the river by an invisible force and she was deemed to be demonically possessed. Soon, more and more were found to be possessed. They are known as "Las Endemoniadas de Queretaro" (the possessed ones of Queretaro).
