In the first part of the episode, Jessica talks about Chaneques who are known as guardians of the forest. They’re usually compared to duendes, but unlike duendes, these little folks only play tricks on you when you’re not nice to nature.
In the second part of the episode, we meet the "witch" that haunted John Bell and his family and the horrible torture they endured up until John's death. But was it really a witch or a vengeful spirit? Let us know what you think!
