Every culture has its urban legends. Some serve to explain the unexplainable. Some have a moral. And some are just plain fun, meant to creep us out. In this episode we explore the mystery of the Chupacabra, a reptilian creature believed to be mutilating animals throughout the island, and La Llorona, a heartbroken wife who drowned her own children as revenge towards her unfaithful husband.
Listen…if you dare!
