1
00:00:04,280 --> 00:00:07,960
Hi everyone, This is Christina and
Carmen and this is another episode of a

2
00:00:07,960 --> 00:00:13,359
Spooky Tale see podcast for All Things
Spooky. Sometimes also true crime like right

3
00:00:13,359 --> 00:00:18,320
now, in the past several episodes, several weeks. Yeah, what came

4
00:00:18,359 --> 00:00:21,679
of that poll that you did?
What did the people like? I did

5
00:00:21,679 --> 00:00:25,320
a poll on Instagram to ask what
people thought of this new format, the

6
00:00:25,359 --> 00:00:28,519
one paranormal case and one true crime
case. And yeah, at first it

7
00:00:28,559 --> 00:00:31,440
was fifty to fifteen. I was
like, this is not helpful. It

8
00:00:31,480 --> 00:00:35,000
was yeah, exactly fifty to fifty, and then it widened the gap.

9
00:00:35,000 --> 00:00:39,240
But in the end more people love
true crimes and parormal case. Okay,

10
00:00:39,280 --> 00:00:42,479
I will say, if you don't
like the true crime portion, just skip

11
00:00:42,520 --> 00:00:45,640
that part, you know, just
yeah, yeah, it's okay, you're

12
00:00:45,679 --> 00:00:50,560
allowed to. Sometimes it's difficult to
find a paramal case that's long enough,

13
00:00:50,719 --> 00:00:55,240
like one long case. So that's
why once in a while we'll throw in

14
00:00:55,479 --> 00:00:58,759
another, like a true crime case, because yeah, we're running out,

15
00:00:58,799 --> 00:01:04,599
you know, long cases. What
about the folklore? Is that all covered?

16
00:01:04,799 --> 00:01:07,920
Is it done now? No?
We can always find more in different

17
00:01:07,959 --> 00:01:11,959
cities or countries. There's never there's
always more stories that we haven't done.

18
00:01:12,200 --> 00:01:15,599
I just haven't been in super super
research mode. I guess I don't know.

19
00:01:15,799 --> 00:01:19,319
Okay, that's what I missed.
Yeah, you know what, we'll

20
00:01:19,359 --> 00:01:21,640
do that, we'll do that.
Let us know what country you want us

21
00:01:21,680 --> 00:01:23,280
to focus on the folk or of
that country that we haven't done. You

22
00:01:23,319 --> 00:01:26,519
know, we've done a lot of
us, a lot of Mexico. We've

23
00:01:26,560 --> 00:01:32,879
done some South South American countries.
Where was the hat guy from the hat

24
00:01:32,959 --> 00:01:38,079
Guy? Oh Guatemala? Ahah,
Yeah, that was Guatemala. But I'm

25
00:01:38,159 --> 00:01:41,239
sure there's places we haven't done.
So yeah, let us know. Obviously

26
00:01:41,319 --> 00:01:44,319
we'll look for something to but yeah, there's definitely folklore out there that we

27
00:01:44,359 --> 00:01:47,480
haven't done, and yeah, it's
been a while since we've focused on that.

28
00:01:47,599 --> 00:01:51,159
Those are always fun. Even individual
Mexican cities will have a bunch of

29
00:01:51,200 --> 00:01:53,400
stories. So like you know how
we did Guadalajara. Oh yeah, that

30
00:01:53,599 --> 00:01:57,879
was fun. Yeah. Yeah,
so maybe we'll do that next episode,

31
00:01:57,120 --> 00:02:00,159
you know what, not, maybe
let's do it. Actually, we might

32
00:02:00,200 --> 00:02:06,519
already have a topic soon, just
soon for next episode. Yeah, no,

33
00:02:06,519 --> 00:02:08,479
no, scratch that. I will
put the folklore first and then we'll

34
00:02:08,479 --> 00:02:10,800
do the cult because you know what, it's been a lot of back to

35
00:02:10,919 --> 00:02:15,000
Extra Crime. I do like cults
though, so I know me too.

36
00:02:15,400 --> 00:02:19,759
I love them. It sounds bad, I love learning about them. There,

37
00:02:19,960 --> 00:02:22,039
thank you, Yeah, I do, I do. Before we get

38
00:02:22,080 --> 00:02:24,120
to today's topic, I guess I
should let everyone out. Today we are

39
00:02:24,240 --> 00:02:30,560
talking about Latin American cases that inspired
horror movies, and we have one story

40
00:02:30,599 --> 00:02:34,879
from La Manoplua. But before we
get into that, we do have a

41
00:02:35,000 --> 00:02:37,360
listener story. And if you have
a story that you want to send into

42
00:02:37,360 --> 00:02:39,599
the podcast, you can email Speaky
Tales at gmail dot com. You can

43
00:02:39,639 --> 00:02:44,919

44
00:02:45,080 --> 00:02:47,159

45
00:02:47,199 --> 00:02:51,680

You can always dm me Spoaky Tales.

social media, so it'll be me you

us me whatever on Instagram. Yeah,

48
00:02:58,439 --> 00:03:00,719
all of those are options. Okay, So now I have this listener story.

49
00:03:00,840 --> 00:03:04,840
Are you ready? I'm ready?
All right? So I don't know

50
00:03:04,840 --> 00:03:07,400
if they want her to stay anonymous, I will keep them anonymous. And

51
00:03:07,479 --> 00:03:10,120
I'm also pretty sure I haven't read
it. Okay, I was five months

52
00:03:10,159 --> 00:03:14,879
pregnant with my son at nineteen years
old and lived in a little two bedroom

53
00:03:14,919 --> 00:03:17,479
apartment with my then fiance. We
had just gotten a kitten we named the

54
00:03:17,560 --> 00:03:22,000
Zodiac. I always felt watched in
that apartment. One night, I was

55
00:03:22,039 --> 00:03:24,919
getting up to go to the bathroom
for the fiftieth time, because that's the

56
00:03:25,000 --> 00:03:30,639
choice of pregnancy through that. It
was probably around two am. The master

57
00:03:30,719 --> 00:03:34,479
bedroom was in the top left of
the room, and I slept in the

58
00:03:34,479 --> 00:03:37,759
bed basically the bottom right of the
master bedroom. Okay, we'll get in

59
00:03:37,800 --> 00:03:40,439
a little layout here. That always
helps paint the picture doesn't help me because

60
00:03:40,439 --> 00:03:45,280
I have no concept of You're right, I don't know. I don't either.

61
00:03:46,759 --> 00:03:50,280
For those who can imagine this,
I'm sure it helps. Hopefully you

62
00:03:50,280 --> 00:03:55,240
pictured it. I didn't. I
couldn't. I tried, but I couldn't.

63
00:03:58,080 --> 00:04:00,639
On my way back to my side
of the bed, I heard deep,

64
00:04:00,840 --> 00:04:05,360
weird growling. It terrified me.
I was staring at the direction for

65
00:04:05,400 --> 00:04:10,479
a minute, and there was nothing. I ran and jumped in bed the

66
00:04:10,639 --> 00:04:13,560
end corner of my side of the
bed, sunk down just a bit.

67
00:04:14,120 --> 00:04:20,279
Oh God, now that I understood, Yeah right, I screamed and woke

68
00:04:20,399 --> 00:04:25,519
up My then fiance. Now ex
husband. He said it was probably Zodiac.

69
00:04:25,720 --> 00:04:29,720
The problem was that Zodiac had been
sleeping by my pillow the entire time.

70
00:04:29,839 --> 00:04:32,319
Then he said it was probably just
me having a realistic dream. I

71
00:04:32,360 --> 00:04:36,040
doubt myself all the time, but
I remember the fear I had, and

72
00:04:36,079 --> 00:04:40,319
the growl towards me, and then
the pressure on the bed. I had

73
00:04:40,319 --> 00:04:43,480
never saved the place so much in
my life, and said any prayer I

74
00:04:43,519 --> 00:04:46,199
could find on expelling evil presences.
I don't know what happened that night,

75
00:04:46,319 --> 00:04:50,759
but it never happened again. Besides
still having the feeling of being watched in

76
00:04:50,959 --> 00:04:55,199
that bedroom. It was such a
creepy feeling. I slept with the bathroom

77
00:04:55,279 --> 00:04:58,319
light on for the remaining four months
I lived there. I wish I had

78
00:04:58,319 --> 00:05:00,759
got to get a priest involved,
but I was not. Nineteen and an

79
00:05:00,800 --> 00:05:03,240
abusive relationship. Lots of issues in
my life. If anyone has thoughts,

80
00:05:03,319 --> 00:05:06,879
I'm always open to them. My
first thought was a hellhound. I never

81
00:05:06,959 --> 00:05:11,439
really know what I believe in though, Wow, I have no thoughts.

82
00:05:11,759 --> 00:05:15,759
Just scary, just how scary?
Yeah that's your only thought? Yeah,

83
00:05:15,839 --> 00:05:20,680
I would. I mean the growling
definitely makes me think something more, something

84
00:05:20,720 --> 00:05:25,560
worse than a ghost, Like,
what sinister? Yeah, I'm sinister,

85
00:05:25,639 --> 00:05:27,639
thank you. I was like,
what is a word? I'm looking for

86
00:05:27,800 --> 00:05:30,439
something evil because I'm like, a
ghost is already scary, but growling no,

87
00:05:31,199 --> 00:05:34,519
yeah, and they're not really known
for growling, so that was something

88
00:05:34,560 --> 00:05:38,480
else. Yeah, but you know
what, glad you're out of that situation

89
00:05:38,759 --> 00:05:42,480
and away from that apartment. Yeah, that's scary for sure, for sure.

90
00:05:42,680 --> 00:05:45,279
And yeah, and thanks for sending
that in. All right, do

91
00:05:45,360 --> 00:05:48,800
you want to kick our episode off
now, Carmen? After you were done

92
00:05:48,879 --> 00:05:54,279
yawning? Am I borring? You
know? No, I'm just I was

93
00:05:54,319 --> 00:05:58,000
so excited watching the Usher performance and
now I'm tired. When it came out

94
00:05:58,000 --> 00:06:00,720
on skates, oh my god,
I was like, oh no, Usher,

95
00:06:00,759 --> 00:06:03,839
please don't fall. He's a pro. Apparently I didn't know this.

96
00:06:04,360 --> 00:06:11,600
Yeah. I started seeing his skating
videos during the pandemic on like twenty twenty.

97
00:06:11,800 --> 00:06:15,319
You know how everyone was skating.
Oh I did? I had no

98
00:06:15,399 --> 00:06:18,120
idea. Wow, yeah that's cool. Sometimes I want to start skating,

99
00:06:18,120 --> 00:06:20,920
but I'm like, no, never
mind, I I cannot. I was

100
00:06:20,959 --> 00:06:24,279
telling my husband I was like,
I wish I could skate like that,

101
00:06:24,360 --> 00:06:26,480
and he just laughed, damn.
And I was like, you should skate

102
00:06:26,560 --> 00:06:29,240
like that, because you know how
the guy either one or like a couple

103
00:06:29,319 --> 00:06:31,439
guys slid on their heads like the
break Nazi move, but on skates.

104
00:06:31,600 --> 00:06:33,759
Yeah. Yeah, I saw that. I was like, wow, okay,

105
00:06:33,759 --> 00:06:36,519
okay, onto our case. Enough
about Usher, just one more thing.

106
00:06:36,600 --> 00:06:41,399
I loved all of it. I'm
never gonna shut up about Usher.

107
00:06:41,639 --> 00:06:45,360
Every time one of his guests came
out, I was like screaming. He

108
00:06:45,480 --> 00:06:47,959
was our first CD. He was
my first crush, my first everything.

109
00:06:49,319 --> 00:06:54,519
Yeah. Our only poster in our
shared room was Usher, Yeah, from

110
00:06:54,680 --> 00:07:00,879
Confessions. So yeah, of course
we were over the moon about this performance.

111
00:07:00,879 --> 00:07:02,000
But no, when, yeah,
when everyone started came and I was

112
00:07:02,040 --> 00:07:03,399
like, oh my god, it's
little John and I was like, oh

113
00:07:03,480 --> 00:07:08,759
my god, it's ludicrous, Like
yeah, yeah, it was amazing,

114
00:07:09,000 --> 00:07:13,079
the highlight of today, my year
so far, I think, yeah,

115
00:07:13,160 --> 00:07:15,720
yeah, it was. It was
amazing. Okay, now I think I

116
00:07:15,720 --> 00:07:19,000
got enough fund of it, or
enough you got it out of your system?

117
00:07:19,439 --> 00:07:24,360
Yeah for now? Yeah, Okay, on with this paranormal case.

118
00:07:24,600 --> 00:07:29,240
All right, So you and MJ
have talked about nowalas before, but just

119
00:07:29,279 --> 00:07:32,319
in case anyone needs a reminder,
a nowle is a shape shifting sorcerer,

120
00:07:32,519 --> 00:07:38,120
a brujo who gained the ability to
do this, to shape shift by doing

121
00:07:38,160 --> 00:07:42,000
something truly evil or by making a
pact with the devil. Of course,

122
00:07:42,040 --> 00:07:46,000
before colonization, they were not inherently
evil. It was a shaman that had

123
00:07:46,079 --> 00:07:51,120
this ability, and they were usually
protectors of nature and animals when they were

124
00:07:51,199 --> 00:07:57,000
beings that kept the balance of the
world safe. But now they're evil and

125
00:07:57,120 --> 00:08:01,959
they're to be feared Nowile's stories are
mostly heard in Mexico, though almost every

126
00:08:01,959 --> 00:08:05,680
culture has a similar belief. Are
they called Newalas everywhere else too? Or

127
00:08:05,680 --> 00:08:09,040
do do you know what they're called
like in other places here in the US?

128
00:08:09,120 --> 00:08:13,639
I would say they're like those things
that must not be named that shape

129
00:08:13,639 --> 00:08:16,360
shift, and there's like a ranch
about them. I'm sure you know.

130
00:08:16,560 --> 00:08:18,000
I don't remember if it was one
of your episodes or I was listening to

131
00:08:18,079 --> 00:08:20,800
two Girls one ghosts and everyone kept
saying that, and I also, what

132
00:08:20,800 --> 00:08:24,279
the fuck is that? It took
me forever to figure out what it was,

133
00:08:24,360 --> 00:08:26,920
so I don't think everyone knows.
Oh yeah, well, I don't

134
00:08:26,920 --> 00:08:30,959
want to say it. It's a
skinwalker, right, yes, okay,

135
00:08:31,000 --> 00:08:33,799
what you said? It up me? It's Okay, I don't believe in

136
00:08:33,799 --> 00:08:37,639
most of this, so okay,
well, I hope you don't get haunted

137
00:08:37,679 --> 00:08:39,720
because okay, let me take a
pause from this story. Well, lying

138
00:08:39,759 --> 00:08:45,000
gonna scare me, Yes, I
am. There's one similar story that's not

139
00:08:45,039 --> 00:08:48,480
in Awa, but it's in Chiapas, I want to say, the Chiapas

140
00:08:48,519 --> 00:08:52,440
region. It's the Oh my god, the White Chivo. Oh. I

141
00:08:52,519 --> 00:08:56,240
remember that, And it's a similar, similar, very similar story. And

142
00:08:56,320 --> 00:08:58,399
I repeat the story all the time
because I need to warn people. Okay,

143
00:08:58,440 --> 00:09:05,440
I would just yeah, I apologize
to the world right now and the

144
00:09:05,559 --> 00:09:09,600
universe and whatever, just in case. I am just kidding, but go

145
00:09:09,639 --> 00:09:13,600
on, just sorry, I will. So the Whitchivo is a very similar

146
00:09:13,679 --> 00:09:20,399
like a brujo sorcerer that shape shifts
into a half animal half man type creature,

147
00:09:20,440 --> 00:09:24,120
and they're like said to be very
evil. There's even like a saying

148
00:09:24,360 --> 00:09:28,440
in you know this region of Mexico
where they're like, don't go out after

149
00:09:28,519 --> 00:09:31,519
midnight because the white Chivo wanders this
area. And when MG and I were

150
00:09:31,559 --> 00:09:35,919
both writing our notes about this,
she kept hearing knocking on her apartment window.

151
00:09:37,120 --> 00:09:39,720
She was like on the third floor
at this time. I remember that

152
00:09:39,000 --> 00:09:41,120
I mean, come on, how
do you explain that? And then like

153
00:09:41,279 --> 00:09:45,679
some of her books would fall over, and then her kids kept having nightmares,

154
00:09:45,879 --> 00:09:48,960
and like I wasn't experiencing anything like
that. But on the day before

155
00:09:50,000 --> 00:09:52,960
we recorded, when I finished all
my notes, I went to sleep,

156
00:09:52,000 --> 00:09:56,240
and like you know, Carmen,
I barely remember my dreams most of the

157
00:09:56,279 --> 00:09:58,919
time. I'm sure I have them, but I don't remember them, and

158
00:09:58,000 --> 00:10:01,639
I don't have a good dream.
That night, I had the one of

159
00:10:01,679 --> 00:10:07,399
the worst dreams ever. I dreamed
that someone broke into our house and then

160
00:10:07,600 --> 00:10:09,960
Kyle, my husband, couldn't like
get to the where we keep our gun

161
00:10:11,080 --> 00:10:13,279
fast enough, and then like he
was killed in front of me. And

162
00:10:13,279 --> 00:10:16,879
then I woke up right before I
was killed in my dream. But then

163
00:10:16,919 --> 00:10:20,080
I also, like I think I
did a TikTok video about this later about

164
00:10:20,080 --> 00:10:24,279
the same thing. And then I
had another dream, and again it was

165
00:10:24,320 --> 00:10:26,639
a very vivid dream. It was
very similar, like someone broke into our

166
00:10:26,639 --> 00:10:30,759
house and we were gonna get shot. But then before that happened, there

167
00:10:30,840 --> 00:10:35,320
was like this like nefarious deep voice
that like laughed and then said, oh

168
00:10:35,360 --> 00:10:41,039
haha, you've opened like the window. That's scary, and we can like

169
00:10:41,519 --> 00:10:46,000
talk to you now, and it
wasn't Spanish, which is worse. Yeah,

170
00:10:46,240 --> 00:10:50,720
everything's worse in Spanish. Well,
sometimes it's better like songs. Yeah,

171
00:10:50,840 --> 00:10:54,360
not when there's a deep growling voice
in your fucking dream. Okay,

172
00:10:54,639 --> 00:10:58,200
yeah, well, okay, I
just wanted to say it in case there

173
00:10:58,279 --> 00:11:01,320
was people that don't know what it
is, because I once was listening to

174
00:11:01,360 --> 00:11:03,759
either you or two girls goes and
I said, what the fuck are they

175
00:11:03,759 --> 00:11:07,919
talking about? So just in case, yeah, just in case. Anyway,

176
00:11:09,000 --> 00:11:11,399
just I don't know, be careful
when looking these things up because if

177
00:11:11,399 --> 00:11:16,879
you don't believe, like I don't
believe in that, and I was horrified.

178
00:11:16,559 --> 00:11:20,200
So I don't say it anymore because
I don't know if they're the same

179
00:11:20,519 --> 00:11:24,279
thing. I don't know if nowales
why she was and like you know the

180
00:11:24,360 --> 00:11:26,759
word we're not going to say are
the same, but they're very similar.

181
00:11:26,960 --> 00:11:30,879
And yeah, one gave me a
nightmare and attacked me in my dreams,

182
00:11:30,960 --> 00:11:35,600
so gotcha? Gotcha? Well,
fingers crossed, let's do a little bit.

183
00:11:37,919 --> 00:11:41,279
Okay, Well or was I the
beginning? After you said what?

184
00:11:41,480 --> 00:11:45,840
Nowal was right? So now they're
evil? And okay, yeah, because

185
00:11:45,840 --> 00:11:48,480
I asked you what they're called in
other cultures. So that's where I was

186
00:11:48,480 --> 00:11:52,919
at. That's what happened. Yeah, this is from a Mano Pelula case

187
00:11:54,159 --> 00:12:00,799
titled Noales from La Cistoia's Maso cultas
l Manouda on Spotify. Fortunately, the

188
00:12:00,919 --> 00:12:03,399
name of the caller or the date
of the original call or not shared,

189
00:12:03,559 --> 00:12:07,720
So we're just going to give the
caller a name. We're gonna call this

190
00:12:07,759 --> 00:12:11,399
color Jose. So Jose tells Juanda
One signs that his neighbor Maria Elena,

191
00:12:11,639 --> 00:12:16,440
told him and his mom that nawilis
passed by the street. Around three am,

192
00:12:16,679 --> 00:12:22,559
they heard oink noises like from pigs, and Maria Elena had put out

193
00:12:22,720 --> 00:12:26,080
mustard seeds in her yard. Was
it to feed the pigs, Yeah,

194
00:12:26,120 --> 00:12:30,679
to like prove that they were going
into her yard or walking by the street.

195
00:12:30,799 --> 00:12:33,240
Oh okay, I see, I
see. And then they heard nothing.

196
00:12:33,679 --> 00:12:37,799
Then around five am they saw a
man and a woman leaving Marie Elena's

197
00:12:39,279 --> 00:12:43,240
yard. Okay, that's creepy,
So now I see what you're So they

198
00:12:43,279 --> 00:12:48,279
saw pigs coming and then they saw
people leaving. Yes, and nothing in

199
00:12:48,320 --> 00:12:54,799
between. We can assume the pigs
were the man and the woman. Yes,

200
00:12:54,200 --> 00:12:58,159
okay, no one had entered,
just the pics from earlier. And

201
00:12:58,200 --> 00:13:01,080
then the next night the same thing
happened, but this time Marielena didn't put

202
00:13:01,080 --> 00:13:05,039
the seeds out. The pigs entered
the yard and they left. And then

203
00:13:05,039 --> 00:13:09,360
the night after that it happened again. And Jose saw this when he was

204
00:13:09,440 --> 00:13:13,120
ten. At the time of the
call, he was like forty something,

205
00:13:13,519 --> 00:13:18,759
so this cemented in his mind that
Nowalas were real. But this wouldn't be

206
00:13:18,799 --> 00:13:22,440
his only encounter with Nowalez. When
he was a little older, he was

207
00:13:22,519 --> 00:13:26,080
told this story. His mom's side
of the family had a small finca where

208
00:13:26,120 --> 00:13:31,159
they harvested coffee. All of his
uncles and Aunta worked on the farm except

209
00:13:31,200 --> 00:13:35,440
when theo Raoul was an alcoholic.
He gambled and he didn't help the family

210
00:13:35,480 --> 00:13:39,519
at all. Who doesn't have a
t L you know. Yeah, there's

211
00:13:39,519 --> 00:13:43,879
always the Theoud in the family.
For some reason, there was a Brujo

212
00:13:43,960 --> 00:13:48,200
in the neighborhood that hated the family
in the Leger Bruco, but especially Raul.

213
00:13:48,399 --> 00:13:50,919
Maybe he stole his money, I
don't know. One night, Raoul

214
00:13:52,039 --> 00:13:56,080
was walking it was late and no
one else was out. He heard some

215
00:13:56,159 --> 00:13:58,559
hissing and saw a snake coming toward
him. But the weirdest part is that

216
00:13:58,639 --> 00:14:03,240
the snake was standing up straight.
Okay, I'm picturing a Harry Potter and

217
00:14:03,320 --> 00:14:09,600
sorry, I am being a millenia
right now. So the snake was standing

218
00:14:09,679 --> 00:14:13,919
up straight coming at him, and
I Will grabbed his pistol and fired at

219
00:14:13,919 --> 00:14:16,480
the snake, and he missed the
first few times, but eventually he hit

220
00:14:16,480 --> 00:14:20,120
the snake on the face. And
when that happened, the snake turned into

221
00:14:20,120 --> 00:14:24,919
a rat and scurried away. I'm
sorry, another Harry Potter image. Wow,

222
00:14:26,159 --> 00:14:28,360
do you need to stop? No? But okay, does that not

223
00:14:28,440 --> 00:14:31,919
make you think of what's his name? Okay? Yeah, Peter Pettigrew.

224
00:14:33,000 --> 00:14:35,879
You're right, wow, and you
you remember his name, not me.

225
00:14:37,120 --> 00:14:41,720
I'm sorry, the characters are ingrained
in my brain so very Peter Pettigrew like

226
00:14:43,559 --> 00:14:46,480
scared away. So the next morning
I told his mom what happened. She

227
00:14:46,559 --> 00:14:50,399
said, I bet it was that
bruquo and they walked from their dan over

228
00:14:50,480 --> 00:14:54,159
to town. When they got there, they asked for the bruco and someone

229
00:14:54,159 --> 00:14:56,879
told them, oh, didn't you
hear he got home late last night and

230
00:14:56,919 --> 00:15:03,639
he was bleeding from his face.
Ew ew and the person said that they

231
00:15:03,679 --> 00:15:05,960
tried to help him, but he
died. And they're like, oh,

232
00:15:05,960 --> 00:15:09,960
see him. His body's still in
the house. The corner hasn't made it

233
00:15:09,000 --> 00:15:13,240
over yet, so you beat the
corner. And so Raoul and his mom

234
00:15:13,320 --> 00:15:18,279
went to go look, and yeah, the man was still and no longer

235
00:15:18,279 --> 00:15:24,519
alleged Bruquoa. At this point,
the full confirmed capital C confirmed Bruquo was

236
00:15:24,559 --> 00:15:28,960
still in the house, and yeah, that was a Bruquo in a while,

237
00:15:30,039 --> 00:15:33,399
and this man was the snake that
Raoul had shot. That's so creepy.

238
00:15:33,600 --> 00:15:37,240
Oh yeah, although it'd be really
cool to turn into an animal,

239
00:15:37,519 --> 00:15:41,600
I will say I agree. Yeah, when animal would you choose? You

240
00:15:41,600 --> 00:15:43,799
know, when they asked you this
as icebreakers, Yeah, what did you

241
00:15:43,799 --> 00:15:48,960
always say? A dog? I
think I did, okay, because that's

242
00:15:48,000 --> 00:15:50,159
what I said. Yeah, I
mean, why wouldn't I want to be

243
00:15:50,159 --> 00:15:52,919
a dog? I remember in some
interviews, like retail jobs, they ask

244
00:15:54,000 --> 00:15:56,399
you this sometimes, and I was
like, looking up interview questions, They're

245
00:15:56,440 --> 00:15:58,759
like, never say dog. Everyone
says dog. And I was like,

246
00:15:58,759 --> 00:16:00,200
but I legitimately that's what I want
to be. I want to be a

247
00:16:00,240 --> 00:16:04,519
dog, but not only I want
to be a dog in a rich family

248
00:16:04,840 --> 00:16:07,399
that's well taken care of. I
want to be that dog. Yeah,

249
00:16:07,679 --> 00:16:11,480
me too. Whatever. I never
changed my answer that it was always a

250
00:16:11,519 --> 00:16:14,320
dog because I'm like, I don't
want to be a wolf. I don't

251
00:16:14,320 --> 00:16:15,440
want to go out and hunt for
my food. I want to be a

252
00:16:15,480 --> 00:16:18,600
dog where I'm walked every day.
I want to be taken care of.

253
00:16:19,039 --> 00:16:25,600
Yeah, where I'm fed, I'm
giving treats, I'm petted. I get

254
00:16:25,600 --> 00:16:27,840
to sleep in the bed. Yeah, on the couch, every couch,

255
00:16:29,000 --> 00:16:34,000
get little outfits, go out every
day, maybe twice a day, for

256
00:16:34,000 --> 00:16:37,120
real, that's the life. Someone
throws up my water bowl. I don't

257
00:16:37,120 --> 00:16:38,840
have to fill up my water bowl. Yeah, I don't have to do

258
00:16:38,879 --> 00:16:45,159
anything except wag my tail and relax. That's what I would do, hands

259
00:16:45,200 --> 00:16:48,080
down. I would be a dog. I wouldn't even turn back into my

260
00:16:48,159 --> 00:16:52,639
human form, honestly, Yeah,
I think that I would only like,

261
00:16:52,080 --> 00:16:55,639
like, if I wanted a new
family, then I would like turn into

262
00:16:55,679 --> 00:16:59,039
a human leave and then I would
find a new family. But if I'm

263
00:16:59,039 --> 00:17:00,679
being well taken care of, there's
no reason for a new family either.

264
00:17:00,720 --> 00:17:04,000
So I would just stay a dog
forever. Yeah, unless I needed to

265
00:17:04,079 --> 00:17:07,400
fly. Then I could just turn
to a bird, and then I would

266
00:17:07,440 --> 00:17:08,960
go somewhere else, and then I
think that dog I was missing, but

267
00:17:08,960 --> 00:17:14,000
then I had to come back.
Okay, this has gone far enough.

268
00:17:14,200 --> 00:17:17,400
All Right, We're gonna do it. What to do Albrek, and then

269

but what you maybe do? Okay, well no, but that was really

288
00:18:57,880 --> 00:19:02,480
creepy that the nawil like our stupidness. Aside, I was talking about being

289
00:19:02,519 --> 00:19:06,400
a dog so much I forgot about
that story. You know what we needed

290
00:19:06,400 --> 00:19:10,880
that? We needed that because that's
truly creepy. Okay, So yeah,

291
00:19:11,000 --> 00:19:15,920
Latin American cases that inspired horror movies
which I have no idea so the first

292
00:19:15,920 --> 00:19:19,440
one and I have not seen this
movie either, but the movie Borderland a

293
00:19:21,480 --> 00:19:26,680
Frontera was released March two thousand and
seven. It stars Brian Presley. Writer

294
00:19:26,920 --> 00:19:30,359
Strong, Betto Cuevas, and Marta
Igarida. I don't know these people.

295
00:19:30,519 --> 00:19:33,440
Were you gonna look them up?
Oh? Writer Strong, I think he

296
00:19:33,519 --> 00:19:38,200
looks familiar. I think I've seen
him writers Strong, writer from Boy Meets

297
00:19:38,240 --> 00:19:41,839
World. Oh, no, wonder
he looks familiar. I never watched Boy

298
00:19:41,839 --> 00:19:45,119
Meets World. Actually, me and
me neither. I've only seen like clips

299
00:19:45,119 --> 00:19:47,440
here or there. I know who
they are, but yeah, I've never

300
00:19:47,440 --> 00:19:49,079
seen it. I think he's the
only one I know. Yeah, I

301
00:19:49,119 --> 00:19:52,759
want to say that is the only
person that I know for sure. I

302
00:19:52,799 --> 00:19:57,680
did see apparently Sean Aston is in
the movie Sean Austin. Yeah, he's

303
00:19:57,680 --> 00:20:03,519
from the Goonies and he's also and
then god, what is that movie Lord

304
00:20:03,559 --> 00:20:06,440
of the Rings. He's in Lord
of the Rings. I think is any

305
00:20:06,559 --> 00:20:08,160
like Frodo or some shit. I
don't know anything about Lord of the Rings.

306
00:20:08,240 --> 00:20:11,400
I don't know another movie I haven't
seen. No one come for me.

307
00:20:11,599 --> 00:20:15,319
I refuse to watch them. It's
just too late. Now. I

308
00:20:15,359 --> 00:20:18,799
feel the same way about Game of
Thrones, like it's too late, the

309
00:20:18,839 --> 00:20:22,640
moment has passed. Yeah, I'm
never watching it anyway. So that's the

310
00:20:22,680 --> 00:20:26,000
cast of the movie Borderland. So
the movie is about three college graduates who

311
00:20:26,039 --> 00:20:30,640
were in Galveston, Texas and joined
the Beach. Then they decided that wasn't

312
00:20:30,680 --> 00:20:33,599
fun enough, and they're like,
we're gonna go to downtown Mexico and that's

313
00:20:33,599 --> 00:20:38,200
where the real party is going to
be at. Yes, so yeah,

314
00:20:38,240 --> 00:20:41,680
that's gonna be more fun and then
they can do more illegal things over there.

315
00:20:41,920 --> 00:20:45,359
I guess is what they said.
Their words, not mine. This

316
00:20:45,400 --> 00:20:49,240
does not go well and what are
the main characters? Phil falls in love

317
00:20:49,319 --> 00:20:56,000
with a barely legal sex worker,
problematic and she has a child, And

318
00:20:56,000 --> 00:21:00,319
there's seen in the movie where Phil
walks away from his friends and he goes

319
00:21:00,359 --> 00:21:03,920
to buy a Teddy Bear for the
child, and instead he gets kidnapped by

320
00:21:03,960 --> 00:21:07,000
the cartel. As things tend to
happen, you know. The next morning,

321
00:21:07,279 --> 00:21:11,400
two of the friends and the friend
group realized that Phil was missing,

322
00:21:11,480 --> 00:21:14,480
and they investigate his whereabouts. And
we're not going to spoil the movie for

323
00:21:14,480 --> 00:21:17,680
anyone who hasn't watched it. I'm
not gonna watch it, but yeah,

324
00:21:17,720 --> 00:21:22,519
neither. It's revealed that Phil was
abducted by a drug dealing cult that practices

325
00:21:22,640 --> 00:21:27,599
in an ancient African diaspor religion called
Palo Mayomb which is confused with Santa Riola,

326
00:21:27,720 --> 00:21:32,319
which also is very This is like
a fake, perverse version of Palo

327
00:21:32,440 --> 00:21:34,759
Mayombe, I will also add,
and he was being held captive with a

328
00:21:34,799 --> 00:21:40,079
cult plan to make feel a human
sacrifice for their nyanga, which is an

329
00:21:40,279 --> 00:21:45,559
iron cauldron that is inhabited by spirits
and it makes wishes come true. And

330
00:21:45,599 --> 00:21:48,799
again that's like a twisted version of
it. Really, it's like a ritual

331
00:21:48,920 --> 00:21:52,240
for luck or whatever, not to
make wishes come true, like it's like

332
00:21:52,279 --> 00:21:56,119
any prayer. Really. So the
cult hope that by sacrificing Phil, the

333
00:21:56,799 --> 00:22:02,519
spirits in the nyanga would make sure
that their drug deals, that their drugs

334
00:22:02,519 --> 00:22:06,119
would make it into the US without
being detected by border police. I think

335
00:22:06,160 --> 00:22:08,720
I know the cases is based on
I think you do. I think you

336
00:22:08,799 --> 00:22:12,000
do, because now we're going to
get into that case. And when Dawn

337
00:22:12,359 --> 00:22:15,119
was telling me about it, I
was like, oh wait, I think

338
00:22:15,119 --> 00:22:18,240
I know this case. Yeah,
yeah, So now onto the case that

339
00:22:18,319 --> 00:22:23,039
inspired the movie. Adolfo the Hissou's
Constenso was born in Miami, Florida to

340
00:22:23,240 --> 00:22:27,400
Cuban parents. His mother immigrated from
Cuba and then had him when she was

341
00:22:27,440 --> 00:22:30,920
fifteen then they moved to Puerto Rico. This was after the death of his

342
00:22:32,039 --> 00:22:37,480
father and he was raised in a
Catholic household, but his mom took him

343
00:22:37,480 --> 00:22:41,720
to Haiti a lot because she was
learning about voodoo apparently interesting. Yeah,

344
00:22:41,960 --> 00:22:45,440
So then they moved back from Puerto
Rico to Miami, and then he started

345
00:22:45,440 --> 00:22:52,119
helping a local practitioner of Palo Mayombe
and that's who introduced him to that religion.

346
00:22:52,319 --> 00:22:56,799
And like I said a little earlier, Bayo Malombe and Santa Ria,

347
00:22:57,400 --> 00:23:02,200
they're confused a lot, but they're
not thing. They're a West African derived

348
00:23:02,240 --> 00:23:08,000
religion with components of Catholicism. Both
involved the ritual use of non human skeletal

349
00:23:08,079 --> 00:23:14,599
remains. Keyword there, yeah,
keyword non human. Yes. Also,

350
00:23:14,759 --> 00:23:19,200
some people like all religions, which
way it feels like I'm like over justifying

351
00:23:19,240 --> 00:23:22,359
this or whatever or explaining, but
like every religion has good and bad people,

352
00:23:22,480 --> 00:23:27,119
right, So there's some people that
are practitioners of Palomayombe that do use

353
00:23:27,200 --> 00:23:32,480
human skeletal remains to place in that
you know iron cauldron that we mentioned earlier,

354
00:23:32,559 --> 00:23:37,799
But that's not the norm. The
norm is non human skeletal remains.

355
00:23:37,599 --> 00:23:44,279
This religion. It's nature based and
again not always evil, even though you

356
00:23:44,319 --> 00:23:49,880
know vuruo Ism, santeria palomayombe.
They're always depicted as like evil and they're

357
00:23:49,960 --> 00:23:55,519
usually like in TV shows and movies, right something evil. So again they're

358
00:23:55,559 --> 00:23:57,359
not always evil. I just I
just need to say that again. Okay,

359
00:23:57,440 --> 00:24:03,559
back to got married again after his
stepfather died. Everyone is just dying

360
00:24:03,599 --> 00:24:10,559
around this woman could be heard.
I don't know. Maybe so his stepfather

361
00:24:10,640 --> 00:24:15,160
died and her new husband was another
practitioner. I don't know another person that

362
00:24:15,200 --> 00:24:18,240
practiced Balo mayombe and he was also
a drug dealer. Okay, okay,

363
00:24:18,400 --> 00:24:23,759
So the neighbors often complained of dead
animals being left at their door after they

364
00:24:23,880 --> 00:24:29,960
argued with like either his stepfather or
his mom. Okay, that's a little

365
00:24:29,960 --> 00:24:33,039
scary. So it's a little threatening. Yeah, that's a little yeah,

366
00:24:33,359 --> 00:24:37,960
I would be scared. One could
interpren that as a threat. Yeah,

367
00:24:37,000 --> 00:24:42,200
for sure. The floors of their
apartment was also covered in blood and feces.

368
00:24:42,400 --> 00:24:45,400
At some point, his mom was
arrested for having twenty seven animals in

369
00:24:45,400 --> 00:24:51,119
their small apartment. So not the
healthiest, one could say. Yeah.

370
00:24:51,200 --> 00:24:56,359
In nineteen eighty four, Adolfo moved
to Mexico City and this is where he

371
00:24:56,440 --> 00:25:00,440
began his cult and he gained his
first two followers here, set up a

372
00:25:00,440 --> 00:25:06,039
spell casting business and he became popular
with the local drug dealers. That's interesting,

373
00:25:06,440 --> 00:25:10,440
yeah, and hitmen and corrupt policemen. That was his client base.

374
00:25:10,720 --> 00:25:15,039
These corupt policemen connected adultful to Rich
Cartel's who. They were like, you

375
00:25:15,039 --> 00:25:18,720
know what, you can use his
spells. They're going to bring you good

376
00:25:18,799 --> 00:25:26,079
luck in your drug deals. So
they connected, they were networking. His

377
00:25:26,279 --> 00:25:32,880
initial initial ritual sacrifices included chickens,
goat, snakes, and exotic animals like

378
00:25:33,000 --> 00:25:36,440
zebras and lions. I don't like
that. Zebra's and lions. Yeah,

379
00:25:36,640 --> 00:25:40,240
no, these animals have been through
enough. I know. I agree.

380
00:25:40,319 --> 00:25:44,400
Then his group, his Cult to
Whatever, started to grave rob so they

381
00:25:44,400 --> 00:25:48,920
could use human remains in their sacrifices
and they believe this would make their spells

382
00:25:48,960 --> 00:25:52,440
stronger. But somehow this wasn't enough, and they took it a step further

383
00:25:52,559 --> 00:25:56,200
and began to sacrifice humans. So
they were no longer using people that were

384
00:25:56,240 --> 00:26:00,519
already dead, they were killing them. Well escalated, Oh yeah, I

385
00:26:00,559 --> 00:26:07,559
did. Around this time, Adolfo
met Sara Maria Aldrete Villareal, and she

386
00:26:08,240 --> 00:26:14,319
was connected to the Hernandez Brothers cartel. Sara was born in nineteen sixty four.

387
00:26:14,440 --> 00:26:17,519
She grew up in a middle class
family in Mata Moros, Tamaulipas,

388
00:26:17,640 --> 00:26:22,400
Mexico. She attended high school in
college in Brownsville, Texas, and then

389
00:26:22,720 --> 00:26:27,319
she introduced Adolfo to Elio. He
was the leader of the Hernandez Brothers cartel,

390
00:26:27,400 --> 00:26:32,799
and he believed that Adolfo's rituals were
the reason that his cartel was doing

391
00:26:32,880 --> 00:26:36,400
good. They were, I don't
know, getting more money, more drugs

392
00:26:36,400 --> 00:26:40,440
into the US, whatever, they
were succeeding their business. Things were going

393
00:26:40,680 --> 00:26:45,519
well, yeah, for his cartel. And so this is when Adolfo became

394
00:26:45,799 --> 00:26:51,599
part of the cartel and the cartel
became central to his cult. They became

395
00:26:51,720 --> 00:26:56,119
one one the same, I guess
yeah. And so he became what they

396
00:26:56,160 --> 00:27:00,960
called their high priest or Padrino,
and Sara became high priestess or Madrina.

397
00:27:02,039 --> 00:27:06,759
In total, maybe around twenty victims
were sacrificed by the cult, most of

398
00:27:06,759 --> 00:27:11,920
them were Mexican. Until they abducted
and murdered American student Mark Kilroy in nineteen

399
00:27:11,920 --> 00:27:17,559
eighty nine, and this is when
it really mattered because he was an America.

400
00:27:17,759 --> 00:27:21,079
Yeah, it didn't matter before before
that, no, really non issue.

401
00:27:21,160 --> 00:27:26,519
Yeah uh huh. Everyone they had
sacrificed went unnoticed. So Mark Kilroy

402
00:27:26,720 --> 00:27:30,400
was a pre med student. He
was having a super fun spring break with

403
00:27:30,440 --> 00:27:33,240
three of his friends. They planned
to spend their days partying at the beach,

404
00:27:33,400 --> 00:27:37,680
bar hopping, and then going south
of the border during the night.

405
00:27:37,319 --> 00:27:42,119
And Mark Kilroy was taking one night
while he stood outside of a bar in

406
00:27:42,200 --> 00:27:48,480
Matamos, and he was taken to
Rancho Santa Elena. And this is where

407
00:27:48,480 --> 00:27:52,599
Adolfo and his colts carried out most
of their ritualistic murders and where they stored

408
00:27:52,599 --> 00:27:57,440
their drugs. Mark's abduction would have
gotten noticed like the rest of the colt

409
00:27:57,559 --> 00:28:03,519
sacrifices if he weren't into American and
if it weren't for his uncle, because

410
00:28:03,599 --> 00:28:07,680
his uncle was a special agent with
US Customs. He was like active in

411
00:28:07,759 --> 00:28:12,519
the disappearance. He reported him missing, and he was really active in like

412
00:28:12,559 --> 00:28:18,839
trying to figure out what happened.
Mexican authorities were being pressured by Texas politicians

413
00:28:18,839 --> 00:28:22,559
in Texas who urged them to locate
Mark. Again. It wouldn't have mattered

414
00:28:22,559 --> 00:28:26,160
to them, hmm. But because
Mark was white and American and had these

415
00:28:26,160 --> 00:28:30,039
connections, it didn't matter. And
obviously all these killings are wrong from the

416
00:28:30,079 --> 00:28:36,599
beginning, but that's when it became
a national issue. Mexican police uncovered Mark's

417
00:28:36,599 --> 00:28:41,640
body at the ranch. They also
found the cult Nyanga that cauldron and in

418
00:28:41,680 --> 00:28:45,680
the cauldron, and they found a
dead black cat, a human brain,

419
00:28:45,119 --> 00:28:51,039
and other items yanks. Altogether,
there were fifteen bodies found at the ranch,

420
00:28:51,240 --> 00:28:56,400
and the officials say that the group, the cult and whatever the cartel

421
00:28:56,440 --> 00:29:00,400
abducted Mark because they needed a superior
brain for one of their rituals. So

422
00:29:00,519 --> 00:29:03,720
they needed his because he was like
a med student. He was like smarter

423
00:29:03,839 --> 00:29:08,200
than their other Mexican victims. Mark
was killed with the machete when he tried

424
00:29:08,200 --> 00:29:12,519
to escape, and that is what
that movie is based on. Yikes.

425
00:29:12,759 --> 00:29:17,720
Yeah, yeah, terrible, but
they were caught and everything. Oh yeah,

426
00:29:17,799 --> 00:29:22,440
okay, So the second case this
movie, and I'm sure everyone knows

427
00:29:22,480 --> 00:29:25,920
this movie, but I haven't seen
it. Silence of the Lambs. I

428
00:29:25,960 --> 00:29:27,640
haven't seen it either. You haven't
seen it either, No, Yeah,

429
00:29:27,799 --> 00:29:33,000
I'm not surprised. But it was
released January nineteen eighty one. It stars

430
00:29:33,039 --> 00:29:38,160
Anthony Hopkins and Jody Foster. And
yeah, again, almost everyone knows the

431
00:29:38,240 --> 00:29:41,880
movie exists, but like, we've
never seen it. I did not know

432
00:29:42,000 --> 00:29:47,720
it was inspired by a Mexican true
crime case, though that I had no

433
00:29:47,799 --> 00:29:52,240
idea about me neither, So yeah, let's get into it. It centered

434
00:29:52,279 --> 00:29:56,160
around Jodi Foster's character, Clarice Starling. She's a young FBI trainee and she's

435
00:29:56,240 --> 00:30:00,480
hunting a serial killer named Buffalo Bill. And and in the movie, Clarice

436
00:30:00,720 --> 00:30:07,680
turned to a prisoner and former psychiatrist, doctor Hannibal Lecter for his help to

437
00:30:07,759 --> 00:30:14,079
find Buffalo Bill because he himself is
a brilliant psychiatrist and a cannibalistic serial killer.

438
00:30:14,279 --> 00:30:18,799
Okay, I don't think I knew
that he was also a psychiatrist.

439
00:30:18,079 --> 00:30:21,599
I thought he was just a serial
killer. Oh I didn't know that.

440
00:30:21,880 --> 00:30:26,279
Yeah. Yeah, he's supposed to
be the super smart sociopath and he's like

441
00:30:26,359 --> 00:30:29,519
messing with her the whole time,
and it's like this battle of the I

442
00:30:29,519 --> 00:30:33,519
don't know, intelex or whatever typical. Honestly, it sounds like a movie

443
00:30:33,559 --> 00:30:36,440
that we should like. I just
have never seen it. Yeah, maybe

444
00:30:36,440 --> 00:30:38,880
I should watch it. There's a
show too. M m m hmmm.

445
00:30:40,039 --> 00:30:44,720
They also haven't watched the movie and
the character of Hannibal Lecter It was inspired

446
00:30:44,759 --> 00:30:52,240
by a Mexican doctor named Alfredo Bali
Trevigno, and he was a former surgeon

447
00:30:52,319 --> 00:30:56,240
from an upper class family in Monterrey, Mexico. He was also the last

448
00:30:56,480 --> 00:31:00,839
criminal to have been sentenced to death
in Mexico Go. He is suspected of

449
00:31:00,920 --> 00:31:07,160
killing and is membering several hitchhikers between
the nineteen fifties and nineteen sixties, but

450
00:31:07,240 --> 00:31:11,319
this was never proven. The thing
he was actually caught for was killing his

451
00:31:11,440 --> 00:31:18,279
colleague and former boyfriend, Hesus Castillo
Rangjell during an argument. Oh an x

452
00:31:18,519 --> 00:31:22,759
and a colleague. Mm hmm yeah, durrama. Well obviously horrible, actual

453
00:31:22,799 --> 00:31:30,440
horrible tragy. Yeah, no,
for sure. According to court documents,

454
00:31:30,480 --> 00:31:33,920
Alfredo went to visit Hesus, who
was also a doctor, hence the colleague,

455
00:31:34,039 --> 00:31:37,279
and so alfreda went to visit him
because he was collecting some money that

456
00:31:37,759 --> 00:31:42,839
Hesus was going to let him borrow
because was going through some financial troubles.

457
00:31:42,960 --> 00:31:47,920
But when Hassus gave him the money, it was a lot less than Alfredo

458
00:31:48,039 --> 00:31:51,640
was expecting, and when he demanded
more. Hesus refused, and so then

459
00:31:51,680 --> 00:31:56,319
he killed him. He took a
scapel to Hesus's throat and then that didn't

460
00:31:56,359 --> 00:32:00,799
immediately kill him. So then Alfredo
drags him to the back room and this

461
00:32:00,839 --> 00:32:04,759
is where he finished killing him.
I'm not gonna share the details. So

462
00:32:05,200 --> 00:32:12,319
then he called Hesus's former driver and
friend, Francisco Real, for help getting

463
00:32:12,440 --> 00:32:16,519
rid of the body of Hesus.
This was Hesu's former friend and driver.

464
00:32:17,000 --> 00:32:20,880
Yes, so like, what a
fucking friend, right? Wow? Yeah,

465
00:32:21,200 --> 00:32:25,960
I would never help bury my friend's
body if my friend's boyfriend, who

466
00:32:27,000 --> 00:32:30,640
I already didn't like for reasons unknown, because you felt the vibes. That's

467
00:32:30,680 --> 00:32:35,720
why you knew the vibes were off
from the beginning for sure, called me

468
00:32:35,759 --> 00:32:37,480
and said, hey, help me
bury friend. I'm like, no,

469
00:32:37,640 --> 00:32:42,359
what the fuck, I'm calling the
police. I'm like, tell me where

470
00:32:42,359 --> 00:32:44,720
you are. I'll be right there, and then on my second phone,

471
00:32:44,799 --> 00:32:49,640
nine one one, bitch. Seriously, that's what Francisco should have done,

472
00:32:49,640 --> 00:32:52,480
but he didn't do that. They
went over to his uncle's house and borrowed

473
00:32:52,480 --> 00:32:58,640
a shovel. God, and then
when they left with the shovel, the

474
00:32:58,759 --> 00:33:01,039
uncle Gula Lupe. Yeah, was
like, something's wrong, and he was

475
00:33:01,039 --> 00:33:06,799
the one who contacted police officers.
Okay, but they had dismembered and buried

476
00:33:06,920 --> 00:33:10,839
Jesus. Well, thank you for
Lupe. Yeah, seriously. And so

477
00:33:12,279 --> 00:33:17,920
Judge Marco Antonio Leja Moreno sentenced Alfredo
to death. But at this time the

478
00:33:19,000 --> 00:33:22,000
laws in Mexico were changing and they
were doing a way with the death sentence,

479
00:33:22,079 --> 00:33:29,720
so Alfredo was charged with twenty years
to life instead. Okay. So

480
00:33:29,839 --> 00:33:34,240
then in the nineteen sixties, Thomas
Harris, and he is the author of

481
00:33:34,279 --> 00:33:37,079
the book that inspired the Silence of
the Lambs. Maybe I should read that.

482
00:33:37,279 --> 00:33:39,279
Yeah, I don't know. I
don't know what the book is like,

483
00:33:39,440 --> 00:33:43,000
I've never read it. I think
it's called Red Dragon and it's a

484
00:33:43,079 --> 00:33:45,599
series. Oh you know what I
heard, the first book was good and

485
00:33:45,640 --> 00:33:51,559
then afterwards he started doing too much
and that it wasn't good. I think

486
00:33:51,599 --> 00:33:53,960
that's what I heard. Okay.
So he's the author and at the time

487
00:33:54,000 --> 00:33:58,079
in the nineteen sixties, he was
a young reporter and he was assigned to

488
00:33:58,200 --> 00:34:02,000
interview a mental patient at the Novo
Leon Stay prison for the magazine he worked

489
00:34:02,039 --> 00:34:07,200
for. And this presence in Monterrey, he was supposed to go interview a

490
00:34:07,519 --> 00:34:13,400
mental patient that was there by the
name of Dike's Askew Simmons and Dike Ascue.

491
00:34:13,400 --> 00:34:19,039
Simmons had killed three children, but
during the scheduled session to interview Dike's,

492
00:34:19,199 --> 00:34:22,320
Dikes tried to escape. Dikes was
shot by a guard while he was

493
00:34:22,320 --> 00:34:27,039
trying to escape, and then a
man came in and helped save Dikes's life

494
00:34:27,360 --> 00:34:31,480
and he introduced himself as a doctor
to Thomas Harris. And so then Thomas

495
00:34:31,480 --> 00:34:35,320
Harris was like, well, I
guess I'll interview him, because like I

496
00:34:35,400 --> 00:34:37,760
need to interview someone. I'm already
here. I'm not gonna want to lose

497
00:34:37,800 --> 00:34:43,360
this assignment. He interviewed the doctor. They talked about how the doctor treated

498
00:34:43,440 --> 00:34:46,639
the gunshot wounds stopped bleeding, how
we saved Diyke's life right, And then

499
00:34:47,079 --> 00:34:52,159
the interview took kind of a dark
turn that left the bad taste in Thomas

500
00:34:52,159 --> 00:34:58,719
Harris's mouth because the doctor was like
starting he started to ask about Dike's victims,

501
00:34:58,880 --> 00:35:01,039
like like, oh, he had
he killed children, right, and

502
00:35:01,079 --> 00:35:07,000
then he was like wanting details and
like almost like he was savoring the details,

503
00:35:07,119 --> 00:35:10,159
enjoying the details of the crime.
So Thomas, yeah, very ill.

504
00:35:10,280 --> 00:35:15,039
Thomas entered the interview and then he
was walked out by the prison warden.

505
00:35:15,159 --> 00:35:19,480
He was like, the vibes are
off. Yeah. When Thomas was

506
00:35:19,519 --> 00:35:22,679
walking out with the prison warden,
he asked the prison warden how long the

507
00:35:22,760 --> 00:35:28,119
doctor had been working there. That
he seemed a little strange, but overall

508
00:35:28,159 --> 00:35:30,199
he was like, well, he
saved someone's lives, so he must be

509
00:35:30,280 --> 00:35:32,719
good. And I mean he's working
here right then the warning was like,

510
00:35:34,119 --> 00:35:38,039
ore, don't you know who that
is? That doctor is a murderer.

511
00:35:38,239 --> 00:36:00,480
Waits STUPIDO says man So matala wait, way is that the terrible That's basically

512
00:36:00,480 --> 00:36:04,320
what he said. So he said
that doctor is a murderer. As a

513
00:36:04,360 --> 00:36:07,960
surgeon, he would pack up his
victim in a small box. Oh my

514
00:36:08,000 --> 00:36:12,559
god. And so he's like he's
never leaving this place. He's insane.

515
00:36:13,679 --> 00:36:15,880
I'm sorry, I'm still laughing.
Just imagine You're like, oh, but

516
00:36:15,960 --> 00:36:19,360
he has to be a good person. If he helped that guy, blah

517
00:36:19,360 --> 00:36:24,320
blah, dude, he's a killer. I would have thrown up, like

518
00:36:24,440 --> 00:36:29,639
and it's just what a thing to
go through. So naturally, Thomas Harris

519
00:36:29,760 --> 00:36:31,679
was like what the hell, Like, what are you serious? Because he

520
00:36:31,920 --> 00:36:37,320
the doctor was charming until he then
started wanting a little to being weird.

521
00:36:37,719 --> 00:36:42,960
Yeah, but still he like fooled
this journalist and he was like, what

522
00:36:43,039 --> 00:36:50,320
the I'm I'm scared. I am
bamboozled and afraid. Bamboozled and afraid new

523
00:36:50,360 --> 00:36:55,519
sticker. So just like Hannibal Lecter, Afrello was known in prison for being

524
00:36:55,960 --> 00:37:00,119
very charming, well mannered, and
having impeccable tape psych At this time,

525
00:37:00,440 --> 00:37:05,320
it was a mental institution, so
there wasn't uniforms. He wore light colored

526
00:37:05,360 --> 00:37:09,159
suits, shades, He had expensive
watches like he dressed to fancy. He

527
00:37:09,320 --> 00:37:15,679
spoke very intelligently. No wonder he
thought he'd worked there. Yeah, one

528
00:37:15,760 --> 00:37:17,920
hundred percent. It reminds me sorry
to bring a Bones again. But there's

529
00:37:17,960 --> 00:37:22,719
an episode of Bones where they go
into an institution like this, and you

530
00:37:22,760 --> 00:37:27,519
know, Bones is always like talking
shit about psychology, and so she's in

531
00:37:27,559 --> 00:37:30,920
this hospital talking about psychology like like
she tends to do, and there's like

532
00:37:30,960 --> 00:37:35,840
a crisis going on, and so
the actual doctor that works at that place

533
00:37:35,960 --> 00:37:38,599
and Booth got to help that patient
that's having a problem, and she stays

534
00:37:38,599 --> 00:37:44,960
behind, and then another psychiatrist walks
up to her and they have the smartest

535
00:37:45,000 --> 00:37:50,079
conversation. She's like, Wow,
I should rethink my judgment of the psychiat

536
00:37:50,079 --> 00:37:52,159
tree Field. And then the other
psychiatrist comes. He's like, oh you

537
00:37:52,199 --> 00:37:58,239
met patient blah blah blah, and
she's like what. It's literally that situation,

538
00:37:58,480 --> 00:38:01,440
Yeah, yeah, only worse because
it was real. Yeah, and

539
00:38:01,480 --> 00:38:06,719
it shook his core. Thomas Harris
shook his core so much that he was

540
00:38:06,840 --> 00:38:12,239
inspired to create the character of Hannibal
Lecter based on his meeting with this doctor

541
00:38:12,519 --> 00:38:15,480
and yeah, I get it the
similarities. He also based the whole This

542
00:38:15,599 --> 00:38:20,280
doctor was not accused of being accountable, but he did. He was accused

543
00:38:20,320 --> 00:38:23,039
of cutting people in small pieces and
putting them in boxes, and he took

544
00:38:23,119 --> 00:38:30,599
that directly into the movie, like
horrifying stuff. So the doctor he Alfredo.

545
00:38:30,760 --> 00:38:35,000
He did leave prison in the nineteen
eighties because they had a twenty year

546
00:38:35,039 --> 00:38:37,440
sentence. It wasn't like that was
a maximum. It wasn't like he was

547
00:38:37,440 --> 00:38:40,400
in there for life. So he
got out and he was an old man

548
00:38:40,400 --> 00:38:44,840
at this point in a wheelchair,
he couldn't walk anymore, and Thomas Harris

549
00:38:44,920 --> 00:38:49,760
visited him again and he wanted to
talk about the crimes that were tied to

550
00:38:49,880 --> 00:38:52,440
him, the killing of all these
hitchhikers that was never proven. It was

551
00:38:52,519 --> 00:38:55,400
just like he might have done it, but we don't have evidence. And

552
00:38:55,880 --> 00:39:00,519
Alfredo told him, like, if
you want, we can talk about anything

553
00:39:00,559 --> 00:39:04,119
you'd like, except for that.
I don't want to relive my dark past.

554
00:39:04,199 --> 00:39:06,760
I don't want to wake up my
ghosts. It's very hard. That

555
00:39:06,840 --> 00:39:09,440
pass is heavy, and the truth
is that the angst I have isn'tbearable.

556
00:39:09,480 --> 00:39:14,719
I can't live with it. And
he told Thomas, like, I paid

557
00:39:14,760 --> 00:39:17,400
for what I did. Now my
only purpose is to help others. And

558
00:39:17,480 --> 00:39:22,480
he in his wheelchair was treating patients
for almost no mony in this like low

559
00:39:22,480 --> 00:39:27,960
income neighborhood, and his only goal
was to never stop working and then he

560
00:39:28,000 --> 00:39:30,760
wanted to walk again. He died
of prostate cancer in the beginning of two

561
00:39:30,800 --> 00:39:36,119
thousand and nine, and he was
still never tried or convicted for the other

562
00:39:36,199 --> 00:39:38,360
murders that were tied to him.
But yeah, that is the case.

563
00:39:38,480 --> 00:39:42,800
I guess he was your rehabilitated.
Yeah, I think so. Also,

564
00:39:42,920 --> 00:39:45,599
my camera's going to be offering this
portion my child sitting with me. That's

565
00:39:45,639 --> 00:39:49,000
who I'm waving at. Yeah,
that is who Carmen is waving out.

566
00:39:49,320 --> 00:39:52,679
Yeah, I mean he must have
felt, you know, remorseful and hopefully

567
00:39:52,679 --> 00:39:58,480
he didn't continue killing during this time. But yeah, horrifying that he inspired

568
00:39:58,480 --> 00:40:02,199
this terrible, very creepy character.
Yeah, very creepy. And I guess

569
00:40:02,239 --> 00:40:10,800
this brings us to the end of
the episode that it does any do you

570
00:40:10,880 --> 00:40:15,199
have any spooky recommendations? Oh,
I'm just gonna ask you. I actually

571
00:40:15,239 --> 00:40:21,000
I do. I it's more of
don't give them the MiG now true crime

572
00:40:21,400 --> 00:40:28,239
as in the survivor of a crime
type media recommendation. I've been reading My

573
00:40:28,400 --> 00:40:32,639
Name by Chanelle Miller. I believe
that's her last name. Who is the

574
00:40:32,679 --> 00:40:39,920
survivor of the assault committed by Brock
Turner. We all know who that is.

575
00:40:40,039 --> 00:40:45,079
I'm not done yet. I'm like
in chapter I'm almost done. I

576
00:40:45,079 --> 00:40:46,760
have like two chapters left, I
think, and at the end is the

577
00:40:46,880 --> 00:40:51,360
impact statement that she gave. But
it's such a powerful book. There's nothing

578
00:40:51,400 --> 00:40:54,639
I love more than a good memoir. And to hear survivors tell their stories

579
00:40:54,719 --> 00:41:00,159
like it's amazing, and she writes
so beautifully. It is a heartless and

580
00:41:00,199 --> 00:41:05,039
though like very emotional. Yeah,
I ben it's really it's a really good

581
00:41:05,079 --> 00:41:07,599
book though, I really recommend it. I'll have to check it out for

582
00:41:07,719 --> 00:41:09,400
my library. Oh okay, there
goes my light. I'm listening to it

583
00:41:09,440 --> 00:41:14,599
on Spotify. Oh okay, yeah. Oh, but if you do listen

584
00:41:14,599 --> 00:41:16,199
to the audiobook, I know that
you always beat books up. She does

585
00:41:16,239 --> 00:41:19,719
read very slowly, even I spread
it up, and I don't like doing

586
00:41:19,800 --> 00:41:22,280
that. Oh okay, that's good
to know. And it sounds like normal,

587
00:41:22,519 --> 00:41:25,199
and I put it in one and
a half and then it sounds normal

588
00:41:25,239 --> 00:41:29,480
to me. But it's almost poetic
and the way that she writes, but

589
00:41:29,559 --> 00:41:30,960
not overly poetic, like I don't
know if I'm explaining that right, but

590
00:41:31,119 --> 00:41:35,320
it's just beautiful, like I want
to buy it just so I could read

591
00:41:35,360 --> 00:41:37,880
it also written, not only listen
to it. Okay, yeah, I'll

592
00:41:37,880 --> 00:41:39,960
have to check it out. I'll
have to check it out. I actually

593
00:41:39,960 --> 00:41:44,320
have a speaker recommendation today. Okay, I've been listening to this. I

594
00:41:44,360 --> 00:41:47,599
know not a lot of maybe not
everyone is a fan of audio dramas.

595
00:41:47,639 --> 00:41:50,880
Once in a while, I find
a really good one. You don't like

596
00:41:50,920 --> 00:41:52,239
them, no, no, I
know, I do though. This one

597
00:41:52,320 --> 00:41:57,880
is called Agents Stoker, and it's
like think X Files. But the guy

598
00:41:58,000 --> 00:42:00,519
gets drunk a lot as he drinks
a lot. He doesn't actually get drunk

599
00:42:00,519 --> 00:42:02,880
in the audio drama. That would
be weird. I figured it. But

600
00:42:02,920 --> 00:42:08,599
yeah, it's just like a supernatural
thriller. They're investigating like paranormal cases in

601
00:42:08,679 --> 00:42:13,159
this like agency that is like secret. Oh my god, like the show

602
00:42:13,559 --> 00:42:17,079
with what's his name? Oh yeah, there's only like two seasons. Oh

603
00:42:17,119 --> 00:42:21,079
so not funny. Yeah, the
one with the guy from the Office and

604
00:42:21,360 --> 00:42:24,599
Ben from Yatton rec Yeah, yeah, garyl from the Office. I think

605
00:42:24,639 --> 00:42:29,440
it's called Ghosted. Yeah, I
think so that was a fun show.

606
00:42:29,599 --> 00:42:32,599
I'm so mad. There's only two
seasons. That was very fun a very

607
00:42:32,679 --> 00:42:37,239
fun watch. Less funny, so
really think more like X Files more serious.

608
00:42:37,280 --> 00:42:42,239
Oh okay, but it's got an
amazing cast. Emily Deschanel. Oh,

609
00:42:42,320 --> 00:42:45,880
another guy who's like a creepyck Like
he plays a creepy guy in Bones

610
00:42:45,920 --> 00:42:50,000
for like three episodes. He's the
main guy. I honestly thought it was

611
00:42:50,079 --> 00:42:52,639
Hotch from Criminal Minds. His voice
is very similar. Oh he sounds that

612
00:42:52,679 --> 00:42:57,800
way. Yeah, and other like
professional voice actors. Maybe I'll check it

613
00:42:57,840 --> 00:43:00,320
out. I don't know. It
sounds good, it is. I have

614
00:43:00,360 --> 00:43:04,440
been enjoying it. The episodes are
like twenty ish minutes. They put all

615
00:43:04,440 --> 00:43:06,920
their ads in the front too,
so that once you skip them, you're

616
00:43:06,960 --> 00:43:09,960
a good It just continuous. Oh
that's cool. But yeah, it's very

617
00:43:09,960 --> 00:43:13,480
fun. I'm in the second season. I'm hoping there's gonna be a third

618
00:43:13,519 --> 00:43:17,119
season. I didn't check when the
second one came out. But oh,

619
00:43:17,239 --> 00:43:22,360
Tamara Taylor, who's also in Bones, I don't remember. She's Cam in

620
00:43:22,480 --> 00:43:27,719
Bones the Pathologists. Oh wait,
never mind. As many of you know,

621
00:43:27,760 --> 00:43:30,920
I've been rewatching. I've been obsessed
with Bones like the past two yea

622
00:43:30,119 --> 00:43:35,239
you have. I was very excited
when I found this audio drama. It's

623
00:43:35,320 --> 00:43:38,079
very good. Oh Cam, yes, I sorry, just googled her?

624
00:43:38,440 --> 00:43:40,800
Yeah, oh you looked her up? Yeah yeah, yeah, okay,

625
00:43:40,800 --> 00:43:44,679
I'll put her image in this part
of the video so that people know.

626
00:43:44,760 --> 00:43:49,559
But yeah, stellar, stellar sound
design, stellar voice acting. Because I

627
00:43:49,599 --> 00:43:54,119
think that's some of the things that
puts people off when listening to, especially

628
00:43:54,159 --> 00:43:59,480
like indie ones, like maybe the
voice acting is not there. That's not

629
00:43:59,480 --> 00:44:02,079
a thing that me a lot.
So is it like listening to like how

630
00:44:02,119 --> 00:44:06,239
I when you listen to the to
the book. Because I don't even like

631
00:44:06,360 --> 00:44:10,239
really listening to fiction books like audio
books. I only like listening to memoirs

632
00:44:10,840 --> 00:44:16,960
or nonfiction books. But I did
listen to what's that one book? By

633
00:44:17,639 --> 00:44:22,320
the first one? Yeah, I
listened to that one, and I did

634
00:44:22,480 --> 00:44:25,519
enjoy listening to that one. Is
it similar to that? Well, yeah,

635
00:44:25,599 --> 00:44:30,000
you're like listening to a show.
H Okay, yeah, you're it's

636
00:44:30,039 --> 00:44:32,840
a voice active So it's a good
TV show in your ears. Okay,

637
00:44:34,199 --> 00:44:37,480
I could check it out. It
sounds interesting. Yeah, I highly recommend

638
00:44:37,519 --> 00:44:39,480
it. It was very fun.
I just finished the second season, so

639
00:44:39,599 --> 00:44:44,440
I'm hoping there's more episodes. And
that was again Agent Stoker And yeah,

640
00:44:44,440 --> 00:44:45,840
I guess now this is the end
of the episode. Yeah, all right,

641
00:44:46,079 --> 00:44:52,039
thanks Carmen for joining me today,
and thanks everyone for listening. And
