There's so many tales of mysterious caves
on hills, especially in Mexico. Having

2
00:00:08,720 --> 00:00:13,279
heard the legend of leg Lesia,
the San Juan and Nayeri and Christina,

3
00:00:13,359 --> 00:00:17,359
and this is a spooky stories where
every story is a real legend, listen

4
00:00:18,079 --> 00:00:27,559
Escucca at your own risk. According
to legend, decades ago, a man

5
00:00:27,600 --> 00:00:32,000
lived near the hills of San Juan
Nayeri, Mexico. He was a farmer.

6
00:00:32,600 --> 00:00:35,399
He took care of his land and
of the animals that kept him and

7
00:00:35,439 --> 00:00:39,320
his family fed. He had his
cows over by the big hill, and

8
00:00:39,439 --> 00:00:43,679
every evening he took them their dinner. He walked over to his cows like

9
00:00:43,759 --> 00:00:48,159
he always had, only this time
something was off. There was one missing

10
00:00:48,240 --> 00:00:53,640
cow. He canted again just to
be sure it was missing. He went

11
00:00:53,679 --> 00:00:57,000
back home to grab extra food for
himself. He was ready to search for

12
00:00:57,039 --> 00:01:02,240
his cow all night if necessary.
He walked up the hill searching. He

13
00:01:02,359 --> 00:01:04,840
hadn't noticed how long he walked for, but it had been a good while.

14
00:01:06,480 --> 00:01:10,120
Suddenly he came across a cave.
Maybe the cow had gone in there.

15
00:01:10,519 --> 00:01:14,760
He walked in and kept walking until
he came out on the other side

16
00:01:14,760 --> 00:01:18,319
of the cave. When he came
out, he saw a small pueblo with

17
00:01:18,359 --> 00:01:23,000
the beautiful church. He walked down
to the town and went inside. On

18
00:01:23,040 --> 00:01:26,599
the way in, he noticed an
orange tree and a bench. After a

19
00:01:26,599 --> 00:01:30,200
few minutes, he came back out
and decided to grab a few oranges for

20
00:01:30,280 --> 00:01:34,239
his wife. He made the walk
back up the cliff and into the cave.

21
00:01:34,560 --> 00:01:38,200
When he came out on the other
side, something was wrong. There

22
00:01:38,239 --> 00:01:42,079
were houses he hadn't seen before.
He passed by the grassy field his cows

23
00:01:42,120 --> 00:01:46,799
should have been on, but they
weren't there. He got to his house

24
00:01:46,840 --> 00:01:49,959
and knocked. He expected to see
his child or his wife, but instead

25
00:01:51,319 --> 00:01:55,400
a young man answered, a young
man, maybe in his early twenties.

26
00:01:56,239 --> 00:01:59,400
He asked the young man, what
are you doing in my house? The

27
00:01:59,480 --> 00:02:02,120
young man's stared and told him he
was crazy. That's when a woman came

28
00:02:02,159 --> 00:02:07,280
to the door. She was shocked. We thought you were dead. We

29
00:02:07,400 --> 00:02:10,360
searched for you, no one could
find you. He stared at them closely.

30
00:02:10,960 --> 00:02:15,159
They looked like his wife and young
son, but much older. He

31
00:02:15,240 --> 00:02:17,520
told them he had only been gone
overnight. He was searching for the missing

32
00:02:17,520 --> 00:02:22,360
cow and went through a cave.
He looked through his pockets For proof that

33
00:02:22,400 --> 00:02:25,080
it hadn't been that long, he
could show them the oranges he had picked

34
00:02:25,080 --> 00:02:29,400
outside of that church in the town, but when he pulled them out of

35
00:02:29,439 --> 00:02:32,080
his pocket, they had turned to
gold. The man never found his cow,

36
00:02:32,439 --> 00:02:38,360
and instead he found that years and
years had passed. How much time

37
00:02:38,400 --> 00:02:42,759
had he missed? How could this
have happened to him? Legend tells that

38
00:02:42,840 --> 00:02:46,759
every twenty fourth of June, the
entrance to that very cave on the hills

39
00:02:46,759 --> 00:02:51,800
of San Juan Nyaie opens itself.
Just past the cave, there's a small

40
00:02:51,840 --> 00:02:55,000
town with the gorgeous church. Those
who enter the cave are trapped for twenty

41
00:02:55,000 --> 00:03:00,560
five years, but they don't notice. They don't age the friends and family

42
00:03:00,759 --> 00:03:14,360
they left behind do. Spooky Stories
