[superflowmaster1]

NONO CHUPACABRAS BORN IN PUERTO RICO THEN IMIGRATE TO MEXICO FOR  A BETTER FUTURE JAJAJA

[emeliakanson91]

Ooh, Los Douennes, I've heard of them~! *randomly studies folklore*

Actually, La Llorona really doesn't have any source at all--all that's known for certain is that every established culture has some form of her story in their folklore. The most well known are the banshee ("screaming like a banshee", anyone?) and the wailing woman, though the wailing woman is more from American lore. :D These stories are so much fun, they're the perfect bedtime stories, right with Japanese urban legends. :D

[Rayzerzgun]

he hides in the closet? lol

[whalelover1231]

I live in New Mexico and my sister and i always used to go out into this big field at night and hunt for El Chupacabra.(Spelling....sorry.­..), the only thing we ever saw were weird flashes of lights, from the trees, the sky, the ground....it doesn't sound very creepy but it scared the hell out of us XD

[Djking928]

I kno right that chines bitch was trippy

[MLIAfanatic]

This isn't as creepy as the Japanese one I just watched.

[Falloutfan8890]

@MLIAfanatic i think i saw that one to

[disastergrl1234]

The Chupabra is also spotted in southern united states in lower texas (but that is the highest spottings, and the spotting closest to the equator of the U.S. i think is austin, bcuz i woman had it stuffed and stocked in her living room.

[MrTuculoperra]

[danimajere]

la llorona, el coco, el chupacabras... more more

[542513]

Nicely done! Good job... 5*****

[123darkbreeze]

HAHAHA! Los douennes are like elfs they're old grown men but they're short, kind of like elfs. They knock things down around your backyard or frontyard.They're are trouble makers they wont hurt you or do anything but you can catch one and keep it as a pet. And NOOOOO! They are not kids that didn't get batized. Lol

[kiraivalentine]

@ibizarza you spell it your way I'll spell it mine.

[ibizarza]

[southwestaliefHTX713]

[israhell78]

dude , el cucuy it´s not the only name this thing had also is know as el coco (mexico) ... and in mostly latinamerican countries el chupacabra is know as el chupacabras ( s)

[Tikisayrah]

Ohh shit, the cucuy is in Narnia...

[littlebabyjesse23]

La Lelarona was indeed a wife, but she killed her 2 children because her husband spent more time with them, she drowned them in a river. Afterward, she reggreted killing them, she roamed around mexico looking for their bodies, and died looking. Now, she appears to children and takes them under the river, drowning them, only remembering the rage she felt when she killed her own kids. Or, thats the story i know...

[300Username]

@littlebabyjesse23 its "llorona" but other than that you got the story right :D

[rendon1212]

6:23 is the haunted ghost tracks in san antonio

[flyinsolo2]

it was a completly different legend prior to puerto rico's sightings, then they got connected

[flyinsolo2]

Chubacabra started originated in Puerto Rico not mexico

[MrSkatingman44]

[900transformers]

[MegaAvenger2]

@page751that is another version of the story what is it called

[MegaAvenger2]

i knew a guy who said he had two encounters with La Llorona both in the same place the creek right behind his house

[gtamythmaster43]

La Llorona is one of my favorites, in Arizona she is spoken of often.

Always creepy.

:-0

[uniquemommy1984]

It's kind of interesting that you used a picture that was taken at a haunted road in Missouri at 6:47 :-P Still great report. Was fun to read.

[kiraivalentine]

@uniquemommy1984 Honestly I just used pictures that were good and spooky for effect. Some are actually accurate others are just filler and atmospheric. Glad its still a loved video, I never expected this result.

[joewhatthehellman]

chupacabra

[sirenalol]

my abuela used to sing me a lullaby from her native land mexico to get me to sleep.....i've only now been able to translate it to "baby go to sleep, baby go to sleep. because if you dott, the cucuy will eat you." lovely abuela...lovely.

[survick]

i always thought this song was awsome not scary

[123werpop]

me and my sister heard la llorona!! :O

at first we thought it was the ambulance sirens but we were wrong. we stayed silent and listened closely.. we heard a loud but soft "ahhhhhh" and it went on for about 20 secs. it was so loud it even woke my mom up..it was so creepy..

we are sure it was la llorona..

[gruntunit2]

@the99nightmare

Yeah... it it suppoused to be a form of dicipline. However it is very cruel and dangerous, as it can even lead to kids to rather kill themselves than to be eaten by the cucuy. However, that is just a rumor.

[Xanedon122798]

btw what is the name of the pic at 3:03

[kiraivalentine]

@Xanedon122798 It was a picture I found when I looked on google for pictures of the cucuy. Its just a creepy picture I think, I used it cause i liked it.

[gruntunit2]

@kiraivalentine

I saw that image on wikipedia while searching for saturn.

Now that I think of it... it fits more the cucuy indeed.

[Xanedon122798]

3:03 is my fav pic

[21212eddy]

gruntunti2 retared its the boodyman

[gruntunit2]

@21212eddy

[gruntunit2]

Did you know that the cucuy in spanish means "El Coco " that means "The coconut"?

[kiraivalentine]

@gruntunit2 No way! Didnt know that!

[gruntunit2]

@kiraivalentine

Sarcasm Scan...

[kiraivalentine]

@gruntunit2 Lol no sarcasm....really :)

[BabyNina151]

[gruntunit2]

@BabyNina151

One of the many names of the cucuy in spanish is "Coco" that mainly means the fruit "Coconut" or an abreviation of "Crocodile"

[victor54441]

@gruntunit2 No it doesnt i am salvadorian i speak spanish and your wrong cucuy doesnt mean coconut dumbass white boi.

[gruntunit2]

@victor54441

Wow....do you even live in mexico? Even if you don't bealive it... there are many types of spanish. THAT is how the cucuy is called in mexico.

[victor54441]

@gruntunit2 Yes i lived there for about three years and i heard all the legends and in spanish :Cucuy: doesnt mean coconut caseclosed

[Scar2401]

[gruntunit2]

[Scar2401]

[dunhamdude22]

no offense to you man great video but the picture at 6:45 is from a place called zombie road in st. Louis Missouri i dont know the story well but i think it was like a bunch of kids used to play there and fell into the river and they haunt the woods

[kiraivalentine]

@dunhamdude22

Yeah I know some of the pictures aren't accurate, I just needed some extra filler so I just grabbed a couple pics that fit the feel of the video.

[MOMifCkNBEBEh]

[TheAttitudeerawwf]

Im from Puerto Rico and here we have an Urban Legend Called La Ponera and its about a 15 year old girl who died in a car accident on a very dark road and everytime you go to that road in your car at 2:00 am (time when she died) she will ask you if you can give a lift to the cementery if you say yes she will get inside your car and kill you and if you say no........ keep driving but dont look back because she will be in the back seat

[lamboracer22]

@TheAttitudeerawwf supossofly mi uncle die lie that srry english not verry gud

[TheExtremeMasterR]

[kiraivalentine]

@Ryolu14. Damn that is scary.

[Ryolu14]

I'm puertorican an I have to admit I have seen the chupacabra and is a little scary ....

It was one night it was in the mountains in my grandparents house when i saw some thing moving in the yard,so I got me a flashlight and aim it to where the movement was from and the thing(maybe the chupacabra)jumped the fence (5 feet tall) and ran out of sight after that I heard the neighbour's 4 chicken's and 2 goat's where dead with all there blood missing..........

[theecko101]

Of course everyone watches Mexico urban cause u guys ain't going there so it makes it less scarier

[Josedejesus53]

@theecko101 i am in mexico im not scared of those legends exept la llorona.

and theres this other legend

im not sure what they call it but they say if you say her name 3 times she apears and drowns you in the gully

where she died 15 years ago

[every1whor3dsthsisag]

ive heard LA LLORONA and it fuckin creepy i heard it at night when me and my girl friend were outside smoking we ran inside and woke up all our friends and they heard it too so wee all slept in the same room

[kiraivalentine]

I honestly never thought the video would get any real views, and Heb13912, I got the story from my dad, thats the way I was told it by him and several family members growing up that was just how I knew it. I threw it together for a class I was taking and wasn't very invested in it. Dont like the way I was told the story then bite me.

[TheSpawnfan]

@kiraivalentine nice video and good choice of soundtrack

[Heb13912]

So the creater of the video get the facts right about the legends

[Heb13912]

Okay the story la llorona story is wrong in the video the real true story is that her kids never behaved around her in public and stole and one night she got fed up and DROWNED them by holding there head under the water but she did go before god and wasnt allowed in due to the sin she commitied she is to find her three kids she crys and screams every night not just in october you can hear her scream and cry by neuvo leon mostly this is a true story from my grandma who was raised in mexico

[1221kary]

HEY!! you need to hear the cry of LA LLORONA, is scary!! my sister and my brother in law hear her once when we used to leave close to a lake.

[smallchick451]

[denvercolorado2010]

all over mexico there have been stories about a woman in lonely streets asking for a ride to truckdrivers so they let her in she tells them where she lives and flirts around so they fall inlove she tells them to pick her up tomorrow again so she leaves and the next day the men show up and knock on her door the girls parents answer and tell him ''what do you want'' the guys ask 2 c ''clara'' the parents turn around with sad looks on their faces almost crying and the guys ask......

[denvercolorado2010]

@denvercolorado2010 what is wrong and the parents say ''clara'' died 3 years ago the guy laughs sayng yeah right the parents take him to the cementary and go to her tumb and it says in loving memory of clara jimenes rip 1975-2007 the guy gets scared and runs away. that is the shoking stories on mexico mostly in michoacan,mexico city,puebla,jalisco,durangozac­atecas & chiuhauha

[TheGarcia350]

lol chupacabra(GOATSUCKER) is a Puerto Rican myth or child story. then it became a real ass nightmare across he U.S. hot regions(like say texas, florida,arizona....etc.)

el cucuy....never heard of it, la llorona is hell unleashed if you see her. I heard her at night once in El Salvador and its horrible to hear after noticing who it is. =X

[metalsonicdoll]

@TheGarcia350 it means goatsucker?

i live in texas and i hadnt ever heard of el chupacabra until scooby doo came out with a video for it

[TheGarcia350]

@metalsonicdoll it became a hotspot for the nocturnal thing. specifically its mostly common to hear about it in puerto rico, mexico, Central America, and Certain areas of the U.S.

[legomen330]

ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh I live in texas so el chupcabra lives in texas

[terremotoDDB]

I live in puerto rico and this video is incredible. I mean it tells you the real story. I'll show it to my spanish teacher. she's gonna like it. Thx for uploading.

[dbo808]

Hawaii has something similiar to la llorona called the green lady who haunts a gulch. Children in the 80s said to have seen her twice wandering the gulch with seaweed like hair and moss or even reptilian looking skin. The story went that back in the day she would take her kid or kids there to play and one day the child or children had gotten lost and she now spends eternity looking for them as well as snatching any child that wanders across her.

[ElSonambulo6]

in colombia we call el cucuy el ropavejero

[ElSonambulo6]

it's spelled Colombia you moron

[DarkSamurai305]

aw shit el cucuy

[MAXimumtheTiMeR]
