[chicadiablita456]

alot of my family lives in Veracruz, Mexico and they say that you should never live soap by the river of La Llorona will ge there to wash her dress and you can hear her crying.

[djxmemory]

When I lived in Honduras they said that la llorona would come out at night by the rivers

[sanjosecasascaidas]

[AdamMoss13]

i live in santa fe to once I went to the river bed but I dident hear her

[metalgirl7777]

Growing up in Santa Fe the tale of her was as common as green chile as kids we liked to scare each other with the story until one night we were walking home from the plaza area and stopped at riverside for a moment it was late the we heard a cry or wail thought it was someone screwing around the cry got louder and horrific it kept getting closer needless to say we ran our ass off all the way home to the Casa Solana area and never made fun of the story again..

[sinnister32]

i didnt record it and me and my friends were walking under a bridge which there was no water and out of no where we heard it... we didn't record it because we didnt believe it... but im not doing that again

[sinnister32]

Hey people if u ever hear la llorona scream you'll wish you were dead! THey scream she give's is un heard of it's something you can't explain i've never heard a yell like that and it feels like you came down the steepest roller coaster you feel weak almost faint and god the sound.. all i can say don't look for something u really dont want to see

[crazy11008]

really. do u have any recording of the llorona or how it sounds? please i'm curious.

[enchantedroker]

Its not only in Mexico! I heard it has been in the forests of Belize...G-damit

[crazylatino9]

well, i'd never said it was only in mexico, i said we heard her when we were in mexico and if u know someone or if u have heard her, u know she doesnt yell hay mis hijos, some people like to talk about her but they dont know shit about her

[Zackoj999]

true

[crazylatino9]

we used to live right next to a river for 14 years and we never heard anything untill that time my sis heard her, then like a week later my brother in law heard her and like 2 days later i did, so fk it, we moved from there cuz it got realy scared but u know what, she doesnt scream "mis hijos" or my childrens. hard to explain here how she sounds but she doesnt talk.

[RingoBeatlesgirl]

when I was in Mexico I was by the river and I only heard creepy cries

[tummer37]

that's different than what i grew up with. the one the chick said is the closest to what i've heared

[JpJrHtownTX]

caged dark wolf sarcasm much????

[LonelyXPrincess]

how could la llorona have made contact with that lady without killing her???? my cuzin told me that la llorona made contact with him and she was floating over him with acid tears coming out of her eyes. but he ran away. i dont think she can possibly make contact with anyone without killing them...

[sergio82rios]

La llorona is real... my brother heard her when she was in mexico... its true no lie....

[SakaiyaSakuretsu]

Actually I read that she didn't drown her children to keep appearances. She did it out of spite for her husband, who left her for another woman of greater wealth.

[byakugancritic]

NO NO NO, her "going around" is true, and she was beautiful, but to stay beautiful she killed her children everytime they were born by throwing them over a bridge. I don't exactly know how she died, But she's not restricted to this area, so "hometown tales" is a load of bull-david has no idea what he is talking about and my story coincides with boyshadow's

[leigon666]

la llorona does exist

[NaruffyBell]

My cousins told me that she killed her children and then herself and...yeah...They said it was near where we were staying at my Grandma's house in Mexico.

[luisyflor]

but south west back in da days was Mexico

[mindfreakfan247]

thats what my parents told me 2

[Boyshadow45]

my grandparents told me that she had a husband and he didnt wanna be with her so she drowned their children and that she went to heaven and god asked her where are ur children 3 times and she said all 3 times i dont know and he sent her back to earth to find her children

thats what my grandparents told me when i was like 5 or 6

[david33743374]

The version i heard was that she drowned her children and she know walks around in a town in Mexico chained to a black dog witch represents the devil ,she is chained by the neck and and she carries her two children one in each hand and everytime the dog turns to look at her that is when she screams for her children

[dietzchris]

rio grande

[dietzchris]

im a ghost hunter. and were goint to investigate the ditch witch. on Saturday night

[theticcaboose]

where at

[Jrge666]

i remember when i first heard of that story when i was a little guy, it kept me frightened for 7 weeks straight even inside my own house, but now that this video reminded me of the story again i think i'm gonna be indoors for a couple of weeks

[LedZepAllTheWay]

True story

[theticcaboose]

i have grown up, and i still in live in albuquerque new mexico. i remeber my mom telling me the story of la liorona. they use la liorona to keep kids out of the arroyos. such as on magnets, papers, and other things they use to educate us about staying out of the aroyos they have a picture of la liorona on them. there are so many variations on the story.

[LedZepAllTheWay]

Its true

[rescate123]

Dude my grandma lives over there in Guanajuato Mexico, and they told me tails about La llorona and it scared the hell out of me, but now i don't really believe it anymore.

[antesdetinohubonada]

icnaros

[helloween1987]

you can hear about her if you visit Guanajuato Mexico, and maybe she can be heard overthere,,

[MeneGene]

We've even found tales as far South as Colombia. It's a classic tale. Thanks.

[reallybadeggs]

There are various stories about La Llorona all over the Southwest. My father has told me stories about La Llorona that he grew up hearing when he was a child in Texas. My friends who've lived all over TX and AZ near the Rio Grande have also told me stories about La Llorona, and claim to have seen La Llorona roaming the banks of the Rio Grande, or roaming in the desert near a source of water.
