La Llorona's Deadly Wrath // Something Scary | Snarled

About this episode

The episode explores dark legends and warnings associated with La Llorona in honor of Cinco de Mayo.

Sometimes, the stories we hear aren’t just tales, they’re warnings. Warnings from the past, from spirits that linger just out of sight, waiting for the curious to wander too close. In honor of Cinco de Mayo, which celebrates Mexico’s victory over the French at Puebla, these dark legends come to life. The line between myth and reality is razor thin. Listen carefully, because once you hear them, they’ll be seared into your memory forever. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices
