Chihuahua is one of the largest states in Mexico and also very haunted. Among these hauntings are El Panteon de los ninos (the children's cemetery), La Casa dell Ahorcado (The Hanged Man's House) and Los Monitos de Meoqui (the little monkeys of Meoqui).

Any of those are fine. We love receiving them, and

19
00:01:03.280 --> 00:01:07.200
we're actually gonna listen to one today. I finally pulled

20
00:01:07.239 --> 00:01:09.640
up the voicemails. This Spookie hotline.

21
00:01:10.239 --> 00:01:13.120
Well, that Spooky Tale my m o kyo, so I

22
00:01:13.400 --> 00:01:19.879
owned photography Plato, not the uh E today Arlington. That's

23
00:01:19.920 --> 00:01:25.920
where the story takes twice to day. I always had pookie.

24
00:01:26.000 --> 00:01:29.519
Stuff happened to me, but I grew up in a

25
00:01:29.599 --> 00:01:34.159
Christian household, so it wasn't really it wasn't really validated.

26
00:01:34.239 --> 00:01:36.719
You know, I'm not Christian anymore. So looking back on

27
00:01:36.840 --> 00:01:41.239
these experiences, I'm like, my probably definitely haunted. Like that

28
00:01:41.359 --> 00:01:42.359
would fall from the.

29
00:01:44.400 --> 00:01:46.519
What that would fall from my brother's closet, like board

30
00:01:46.519 --> 00:01:48.359
games and stuff all at once, not just like one

31
00:01:48.359 --> 00:01:51.079
at a time, but well sometimes there was one at time,

32
00:01:51.400 --> 00:01:53.280
but they would all remember other than there. One time

33
00:01:53.319 --> 00:01:55.680
they all came down at once. I'm like, oh, right

34
00:01:55.719 --> 00:01:58.159
out there and the floor is creating vegeta. That was

35
00:01:58.200 --> 00:02:00.359
the wooden moving. But now they know if you avoid

36
00:02:00.400 --> 00:02:03.120
in the floor, stool creeks. I'm like, what, I'm pretty

37
00:02:03.120 --> 00:02:05.280
sure I fellow ghost to my dog there too, anyway,

38
00:02:05.879 --> 00:02:10.319
and then a ghost rashly a alien story. Yeah, I

39
00:02:10.360 --> 00:02:13.840
was driving back with my mom from a volleyball game

40
00:02:13.879 --> 00:02:15.719
that I was announcing. I was in high school and

41
00:02:15.719 --> 00:02:17.159
didn't have a car, so she had to drive me.

42
00:02:17.400 --> 00:02:21.840
But yeah, that's embarrassing, but I uh, we were in

43
00:02:21.840 --> 00:02:23.719
the car and our stop sign I was from the

44
00:02:23.800 --> 00:02:26.280
radio going off, and my mom's like, I came up

45
00:02:26.319 --> 00:02:29.919
the car. I'm like, that's weird. I'm like when I

46
00:02:29.960 --> 00:02:33.360
look outside and so I look up and I you know,

47
00:02:33.560 --> 00:02:36.400
stars are out last night, I see one started kind

48
00:02:36.439 --> 00:02:38.800
of moving and getting closer and getting bigger and bigger.

49
00:02:38.919 --> 00:02:41.599
I'm like, oh my god, I'd feed the big zagging

50
00:02:41.599 --> 00:02:43.599
and I'm like, oh my god, Mom look at this like,

51
00:02:43.639 --> 00:02:46.319
oh my god, I didn't say that.

52
00:02:46.439 --> 00:02:47.960
Was old one.

53
00:02:49.319 --> 00:02:53.400
Uh yeah, it dig zagged away and then just like that,

54
00:02:53.479 --> 00:02:55.439
it was gone, and then the car started working again

55
00:02:55.479 --> 00:02:58.439
and we went on our way. That's my spooky tale.

56
00:02:59.639 --> 00:03:01.599
Thank you so much for taking my time, and Michael,

57
00:03:02.080 --> 00:03:03.120
I love your podcast.

58
00:03:05.000 --> 00:03:06.960
Wait, I kind of love how we told that. No,

59
00:03:07.360 --> 00:03:09.560
for real, I love how you told us that story.

60
00:03:09.759 --> 00:03:13.240
Thank you so much for leaving it in a voicemail. Honestly,

61
00:03:13.759 --> 00:03:16.120
that was the best way to receive this story. It was.

62
00:03:16.199 --> 00:03:18.159
It was really was. I don't think there could have

63
00:03:18.159 --> 00:03:20.840
been a better delivery. I don't know, I really don't,

64
00:03:22.439 --> 00:03:24.599
but yeah, I know that was a UFO for sure.

65
00:03:25.199 --> 00:03:28.120
Oh yeah, funny because one of my stories from Chihuahwa

66
00:03:28.199 --> 00:03:33.680
today an alien story. So that was very excited when

67
00:03:33.719 --> 00:03:36.919
I found it. Okay, on today's episode, we are sharing

68
00:03:36.919 --> 00:03:39.599
myths and legends from Chihuahua, and we've already done like

69
00:03:39.719 --> 00:03:46.599
two of the most famous Chihuahua stories. La Pascuala, Yeah

70
00:03:46.599 --> 00:03:50.400
that is Chihuahua and that was very early. Yeah she is.

71
00:03:50.680 --> 00:03:54.439
And then last ye do you remember that one? Yeah? Yeah,

72
00:03:54.520 --> 00:03:58.879
in the Statue episode that was were you officially a host?

73
00:03:58.960 --> 00:04:02.599
Were you so guested on that episode? So it was

74
00:04:02.599 --> 00:04:04.319
one of the all I know, Okay, it was, like

75
00:04:04.360 --> 00:04:06.439
I said, one of the first that you were officially

76
00:04:06.520 --> 00:04:09.759
the host, co host. I'm not sure you're still the

77
00:04:09.840 --> 00:04:12.199
unofficial official I don't think was there though, So no,

78
00:04:12.319 --> 00:04:14.120
it was just the two of us. Yeah, but yeah,

79
00:04:14.120 --> 00:04:16.800
So those are probably the most well known Chihaa stories,

80
00:04:16.800 --> 00:04:20.279
but like there's always more so of course, and so

81
00:04:20.439 --> 00:04:25.560
we're starting with the children's cemetery. Don't like that? Just

82
00:04:25.639 --> 00:04:29.399
a few meters away from Francisco Tores Boulevard, in the

83
00:04:29.399 --> 00:04:33.399
middle of a modern middle class upper class middle slash

84
00:04:33.480 --> 00:04:37.000
upper class neighborhood, upper middle class it's called you dump. Wow,

85
00:04:37.199 --> 00:04:40.639
thank you. Let's start from the top in the middle

86
00:04:40.680 --> 00:04:44.920
of a what upper middle class, upper middle class. In

87
00:04:44.959 --> 00:04:48.800
the middle of upper middle class neighborhood in there's a

88
00:04:48.920 --> 00:04:56.600
super hunted cemetery known as its real name is Panton Senecu,

89
00:04:57.040 --> 00:04:59.480
and it dates back to just before the Mexican Revolution.

90
00:05:00.199 --> 00:05:03.920
The inhabitants of this neighborhood, the people of El Vaje Dejuarees,

91
00:05:04.720 --> 00:05:08.800
they couldn't make it to the municipal cemeteries like Santra Fael.

92
00:05:08.920 --> 00:05:11.560
They were too far away to carry their dead loved ones,

93
00:05:11.879 --> 00:05:15.360
and so they began to bury them in Senegu instead.

94
00:05:15.399 --> 00:05:17.839
They just like, this is a cemetery now, when they

95
00:05:17.839 --> 00:05:20.399
started burying their loved ones there. I did see another

96
00:05:20.439 --> 00:05:23.000
source that said the cemetery dates back to the beginnings

97
00:05:23.040 --> 00:05:25.759
of the nineteenth century and was built by the beetle

98
00:05:25.920 --> 00:05:30.160
people of Senecu, and the majority of those buried are

99
00:05:30.199 --> 00:05:33.360
actually adults and not children, and both can be true

100
00:05:33.759 --> 00:05:37.000
either way. There are both children and adults buried there,

101
00:05:37.160 --> 00:05:40.439
some say mostly children. And it's no longer an active

102
00:05:40.439 --> 00:05:45.040
cemetery like in use today. It's been abandoned. It's open

103
00:05:45.120 --> 00:05:47.720
to the public in the middle of this neighborhood. It

104
00:05:47.800 --> 00:05:49.399
kind of looks out of place if you look it up.

105
00:05:49.439 --> 00:05:52.319
I should have stream. That makes sense that it looks

106
00:05:52.360 --> 00:05:55.600
like it's out of place. It does. The houses were

107
00:05:55.600 --> 00:05:58.399
built like around this cemetery that was already there. It's

108
00:05:58.480 --> 00:06:01.560
kind of creepy, yes, And you could see the really

109
00:06:01.639 --> 00:06:07.480
nice looking houses behind, like, oh, there's no walls or

110
00:06:07.519 --> 00:06:10.600
fences or like a gate, like an entry gate, you know,

111
00:06:11.720 --> 00:06:15.240
like other cemeteries have. It's just there, like if it

112
00:06:15.279 --> 00:06:19.160
weren't for the crosses adorning graves, it would be confused

113
00:06:19.199 --> 00:06:22.399
for like a vacant lot. Well, yeah, I couldn't find

114
00:06:22.439 --> 00:06:25.680
when it became abandoned. Just then, at some point it happened,

115
00:06:26.199 --> 00:06:29.720
and since then people have said that it's haunted. Yeah,

116
00:06:29.759 --> 00:06:33.240
the worn out tombstones, the dead grass and growing weeds,

117
00:06:33.360 --> 00:06:36.920
and children's toys laying around everywhere. It gives it a

118
00:06:37.040 --> 00:06:40.600
very creepy vibe. Yeah. I'll put pictures in the video

119
00:06:40.920 --> 00:06:43.199
and I'll try to remember to post some on Instagram.

120
00:06:43.240 --> 00:06:45.319
Those who walk by a night have heard the laughter

121
00:06:45.399 --> 00:06:48.000
of children, only to turn and see no one there.

122
00:06:49.759 --> 00:06:53.240
Some have even seen shadows of children playing in the

123
00:06:53.279 --> 00:06:56.240
cemetery at night. They're looking up from their fancy, expensive

124
00:06:56.240 --> 00:06:58.759
houses like what's up? Oh my god, I imagine you're

125
00:06:58.879 --> 00:07:01.800
like in your house, look out the window. Yeah, that's

126
00:07:01.839 --> 00:07:08.399
what they did. That's what happened to them. But one

127
00:07:08.399 --> 00:07:11.639
of the most popular legends told about this children's cemetery

128
00:07:11.800 --> 00:07:14.319
is that if you park your car outside of the

129
00:07:14.360 --> 00:07:19.399
cemetery at night, leave it there, leave return, it will

130
00:07:19.439 --> 00:07:24.079
be full of little handprints. Why you would try this? Like,

131
00:07:24.120 --> 00:07:26.480
why would you go? I don't know, I don't know.

132
00:07:26.600 --> 00:07:29.199
I don't want to know, you know what I mean. Yeah,

133
00:07:29.240 --> 00:07:32.120
those who live in the surrounding neighborhoods have heard knocking

134
00:07:32.240 --> 00:07:34.040
in the middle of the night and when they answer

135
00:07:34.079 --> 00:07:35.920
the door, no one is there, and they think it's

136
00:07:35.959 --> 00:07:40.800
the spirit of these kids. Oh wow, yes, crapy very

137
00:07:41.360 --> 00:07:44.160
I wouldn't want to go check it out. No, that

138
00:07:44.439 --> 00:07:48.480
was the children's cemetery. A noise, but also not right

139
00:07:48.600 --> 00:08:02.199
right right next we have like sant Saminis. Yeah. So

140
00:08:02.279 --> 00:08:05.959
this took place in Meoki, Chihuahua, in the middle of

141
00:08:06.000 --> 00:08:08.879
the state of Chihuahua, with a population of fifty thousand.

142
00:08:09.480 --> 00:08:12.399
Within the municipality, there are four hundred and sixty four

143
00:08:12.399 --> 00:08:17.040
localities or pueblos if you will. These are Sida, Mejoki,

144
00:08:17.639 --> 00:08:23.560
Las Ro, Cardenas, Esasion, Consuelo, Colonia, Filippe Angeles, Juadalupe, Victoria,

145
00:08:23.639 --> 00:08:28.480
and Las Pents, home to the Contos or Joyi's indigenous peoples.

146
00:08:28.759 --> 00:08:32.799
The city of Meyoki was named after General Mejoki Magnon,

147
00:08:32.960 --> 00:08:36.720
who lost a fighting against the French in Paral in

148
00:08:36.799 --> 00:08:40.320
eighteen sixty five. It's forty five minutes from Chihuawa and

149
00:08:40.399 --> 00:08:43.000
like all of Chihuahua, this area did see a lot

150
00:08:43.039 --> 00:08:46.120
of action during the Mexican Revolution, which is where the

151
00:08:46.200 --> 00:08:50.320
legend of La Casa del Alcado comes from. According to legend,

152
00:08:50.360 --> 00:08:52.320
the owner of this house was a rich man with

153
00:08:52.360 --> 00:08:56.000
a lot of land, someone who benefited from the Portfiriato.

154
00:08:56.360 --> 00:09:01.000
No wonder, he was a um Alcado. This became a legend.

155
00:09:01.080 --> 00:09:04.080
He became a legend. Yes, And as a Mexican revolution

156
00:09:04.240 --> 00:09:07.200
broke out, he decided he had to flee, but he

157
00:09:07.240 --> 00:09:11.080
wasn't fast enough. The revolutionary Getta Yea arrived and he

158
00:09:11.200 --> 00:09:13.840
was cornered. He decided to run to a tree on

159
00:09:13.919 --> 00:09:17.600
his property and hang himself. It was better to him.

160
00:09:17.600 --> 00:09:19.759
It was better than whatever faced him in the hands

161
00:09:19.759 --> 00:09:23.559
of the revolutionaries. This tree is still growing and locals

162
00:09:23.600 --> 00:09:26.240
are afraid to go to this abandoned house because they

163
00:09:26.240 --> 00:09:28.360
say that the soul of this man will curse you

164
00:09:28.399 --> 00:09:31.360
if you set foot in his former property. I'm sorry

165
00:09:31.399 --> 00:09:33.200
it was not enough that he was like rich in life.

166
00:09:33.240 --> 00:09:37.000
He still has a curse people in the afterlife. That's

167
00:09:37.080 --> 00:09:40.840
rich people for you, right. Once cursed, you will continue

168
00:09:40.879 --> 00:09:44.279
to experience the paranormal. If that doesn't scare you and

169
00:09:44.360 --> 00:09:48.799
you actually go inside, then there's another curse. No curse squared. Wow,

170
00:09:50.519 --> 00:09:53.360
there's a staircase inside the house. These stairs have a

171
00:09:53.360 --> 00:09:55.879
bunch of names written on them, and if you step

172
00:09:55.919 --> 00:10:00.320
on your name, you will die. Okay if you have

173
00:10:00.360 --> 00:10:03.240
a super unique name, I think you're good. I'm not save,

174
00:10:03.279 --> 00:10:06.279
I'm not save. No neither am I no? And if

175
00:10:06.320 --> 00:10:12.759
you're Maria less safe j Yeah? Done. Yeah. According to legend,

176
00:10:12.799 --> 00:10:15.840
you can cure the cars. Oh. To do that, you

177
00:10:15.919 --> 00:10:17.960
have to hang a rope in the tree and then

178
00:10:18.039 --> 00:10:21.799
wait for it to swing five times on its own

179
00:10:21.919 --> 00:10:24.240
or can you like give it a nudge? No, on

180
00:10:24.320 --> 00:10:27.960
its own? Okay, but others say you can't give it

181
00:10:27.960 --> 00:10:30.799
as the cars at all, so well, yeh screwed? Okay,

182
00:10:31.039 --> 00:10:34.919
all right then never mind, I guess and Corto don't

183
00:10:34.960 --> 00:10:38.200
go to this house is what I'm getting, and summation,

184
00:10:39.000 --> 00:10:42.440
don't go there. Okay, I will keep that in mind.

185
00:10:43.039 --> 00:10:45.080
And it looks creepy to I'll put pictures in the

186
00:10:45.159 --> 00:10:50.759
video and on Instagram maybe, okay. And our next story

187
00:10:51.039 --> 00:10:55.679
is Los Monitos Meoki the Monkeys, the Little Monkeys of Meoki.

188
00:10:57.080 --> 00:11:00.840
So yeah, the Tree of the Hanged Man. That's not

189
00:11:00.960 --> 00:11:05.000
all that's in milky, because there's another story here that

190
00:11:05.120 --> 00:11:09.039
was very popular. On October twenty seventh, nineteen eighty seven,

191
00:11:09.200 --> 00:11:12.639
four children were playing and then patio of a house

192
00:11:12.759 --> 00:11:16.480
located on the street Francisco in Madero in La Colonia

193
00:11:16.480 --> 00:11:19.919
and Barrio Nuevo. And these kids were twelve year old

194
00:11:20.000 --> 00:11:25.120
Serjio Alonso Lira Roblez, eleven year old Javier Valenzuela, and

195
00:11:25.360 --> 00:11:29.600
seven year old Mario Cosme albides Espanel and his brother

196
00:11:29.720 --> 00:11:33.799
his twin brother, not real twins, they were the other

197
00:11:33.879 --> 00:11:38.320
kind of twins. What are they fraternal? Turn you didn't

198
00:11:38.320 --> 00:11:41.519
even say, I'm like fraternal, Yes, thank you. Yes, they

199
00:11:41.519 --> 00:11:46.159
were fraternal twins. So his brother was William Cosme alvides

200
00:11:46.279 --> 00:11:50.720
Espanel and both were seven. Of course, William went by

201
00:11:50.759 --> 00:11:54.360
WILLI on that day, they saw a red light and

202
00:11:54.399 --> 00:11:58.159
then seven little beans. Oh sorry, there are five little beans,

203
00:11:58.159 --> 00:12:02.080
and I wrote, no, there four for little beings. Anyway,

204
00:12:02.600 --> 00:12:05.519
on that day they saw a red light and then

205
00:12:05.600 --> 00:12:09.720
they saw these four little beings come out from holes

206
00:12:10.000 --> 00:12:12.480
on the ground. And when they saw the red light,

207
00:12:12.559 --> 00:12:15.799
they felt numb and they wanted to run, but they

208
00:12:15.799 --> 00:12:19.519
couldn't move. Oh my god, one of these kids fainted,

209
00:12:20.200 --> 00:12:23.320
and the rest were about to run. They were about

210
00:12:23.360 --> 00:12:27.919
to leave the fainted kid there like I got their own. Yeah,

211
00:12:27.960 --> 00:12:31.320
you're on your own. But they heard the monitos, the

212
00:12:31.360 --> 00:12:34.039
little things, the little beings, tell them not to run,

213
00:12:34.519 --> 00:12:37.159
and then they ran anyway, but they paused momentarily to

214
00:12:37.200 --> 00:12:41.440
listen to these creatures. Matrio and Walie told their parents

215
00:12:41.519 --> 00:12:43.679
what had happened when they got home, and of course

216
00:12:43.720 --> 00:12:46.440
the parents didn't believe them. But then more and more

217
00:12:46.559 --> 00:12:50.399
similar reports were coming from the children of Mioki, and

218
00:12:50.440 --> 00:12:55.399
these monitos were described to be fifteen centimeters tall. What

219
00:12:55.480 --> 00:12:58.240
is that like like a smurf? I don't maybe just

220
00:12:58.279 --> 00:13:03.399
guessing twelve centimeters foot so yeah, yeah, so okay, something

221
00:13:03.440 --> 00:13:08.399
like smurf, Like, yeah, smurf sized. They were gray, though

222
00:13:08.440 --> 00:13:11.960
not blue. They had skinny arms and legs, and I

223
00:13:11.960 --> 00:13:13.799
guess they were just skinny all together because their bodies

224
00:13:13.799 --> 00:13:16.039
were skinny too. So yeah, they would just see these

225
00:13:16.080 --> 00:13:19.879
little sticks with huge heads. Oh yeah, and they had

226
00:13:19.919 --> 00:13:24.720
big red eyes lined for a nose and like no lips,

227
00:13:24.799 --> 00:13:27.840
just what seemed like a slot for our mouth. Okay,

228
00:13:28.480 --> 00:13:28.840
mm hmm.

229
00:13:29.000 --> 00:13:29.159
Yeah.

230
00:13:29.279 --> 00:13:32.080
We could probably draw this, because I couldn't find pictures

231
00:13:32.080 --> 00:13:35.440
of the kids drawings. But we'll try to draw it,

232
00:13:35.480 --> 00:13:38.639
and we'll put our attempt at this on right now.

233
00:13:38.799 --> 00:13:43.879
You're drying it right now. Perfect skinny arms, huge hands,

234
00:13:44.360 --> 00:13:47.200
they have three fingers on each hand. Do they have

235
00:13:47.279 --> 00:13:51.879
long arms? Skinny arms, yeah, just skinny arms. I don't

236
00:13:51.879 --> 00:13:57.960
know how long they are. Are you ready? Let's see it? Yeah, right,

237
00:14:00.279 --> 00:14:04.240
that's what the kids saw, exactly that right there. Beautiful

238
00:14:04.279 --> 00:14:07.679
masterpiece there. Yeah, I love it. So yeah, that's what

239
00:14:07.720 --> 00:14:10.919
they saw. Some of these beings. Actually now I'm starting

240
00:14:10.919 --> 00:14:12.879
to take them. There might have been seven of them.

241
00:14:13.519 --> 00:14:16.080
They all say them, how many are there? I'm not

242
00:14:16.120 --> 00:14:16.840
sure anymore?

243
00:14:17.039 --> 00:14:17.399
Anyway?

244
00:14:17.480 --> 00:14:21.360
Seven four to seven actually yeah. Some of them had

245
00:14:21.480 --> 00:14:25.960
blonde patches of hair, others were bald, and they had

246
00:14:25.960 --> 00:14:29.159
a big red circle on their chest. And these beings

247
00:14:29.200 --> 00:14:32.120
also had the ability to turn invisible when anyone tried

248
00:14:32.159 --> 00:14:35.559
to take a picture of them. What and they could

249
00:14:35.600 --> 00:14:40.960
speak perfect Spanish, so okay. The monitos told the children

250
00:14:41.120 --> 00:14:43.639
that they were on earth to study its people and

251
00:14:43.679 --> 00:14:47.159
that they liked the climate in Mioki. I don't know

252
00:14:47.200 --> 00:14:49.320
what the weather is like there, but these little monitos

253
00:14:49.399 --> 00:14:53.840
liked it. The beings told the children their names. The

254
00:14:53.919 --> 00:14:57.080
beings told the children their names. They were sorry, this

255
00:14:57.759 --> 00:15:03.720
killed me, okay. Their names were Ugo, Bancho, Gus, bud,

256
00:15:04.559 --> 00:15:09.799
It's got and Crispin. Where did you get these names from?

257
00:15:10.240 --> 00:15:12.639
I feel like they spent some time in Mexico and

258
00:15:12.679 --> 00:15:14.679
then they were like, I want to be Buncho, I

259
00:15:14.720 --> 00:15:19.960
want to be Ugle ns beIN. I think they were in.

260
00:15:21.320 --> 00:15:25.639
Maybe they were, yeah, but this is what they said

261
00:15:25.679 --> 00:15:27.840
their names were. And I love it. I love it.

262
00:15:27.919 --> 00:15:34.759
I especially love Chrispin. Yeah me too. The children also

263
00:15:34.879 --> 00:15:39.600
described the monitos as having difficulty walking, like their legs

264
00:15:39.600 --> 00:15:43.279
were rigid and with three fingers on each hand. And

265
00:15:43.639 --> 00:15:49.320
the kids saw or encountered these monitos several times, and

266
00:15:49.639 --> 00:15:53.039
through these times they they said that they never experienced

267
00:15:53.159 --> 00:15:58.159
lost time like others who have had like alleged alien

268
00:15:58.240 --> 00:16:03.559
encounters have said happens with the lost time. Eventually, newspapers

269
00:16:04.200 --> 00:16:07.240
of the time got a wind of the story the

270
00:16:07.320 --> 00:16:10.159
kids were saying, and of the drawing they made depicting

271
00:16:10.159 --> 00:16:13.320
these monitos, and so they went into town to investigate,

272
00:16:13.679 --> 00:16:16.240
and they were like reporting everything, and so eventually like

273
00:16:16.279 --> 00:16:18.919
a bunch of reporters like all over the world. So yeah,

274
00:16:18.919 --> 00:16:20.679
there was like people from all over the world like

275
00:16:21.480 --> 00:16:27.759
resharing this story. But these initial investigators figured that the

276
00:16:27.799 --> 00:16:31.200
kids were lying, especially because there was no lost time,

277
00:16:31.240 --> 00:16:33.679
and they were like, no, this isn't like other alien stories.

278
00:16:33.720 --> 00:16:39.080
We don't believe you. But then more people reported seeing

279
00:16:39.200 --> 00:16:41.960
the strange red lights in the sky, and then other

280
00:16:42.039 --> 00:16:44.360
kids kept saying that they were seeing the same things

281
00:16:44.360 --> 00:16:48.000
these monitos, and the original four kids that had seen

282
00:16:48.080 --> 00:16:52.600
these things said that at the end of November nineteen

283
00:16:52.639 --> 00:16:55.720
eighty seven, the monitos went to them and told them

284
00:16:55.720 --> 00:16:58.399
that they were leaving, but that they would return later

285
00:16:58.559 --> 00:17:04.839
to continue their studies planet Earth. And then the inhabitants

286
00:17:04.839 --> 00:17:08.519
of Maoki they started saying that they they started saying

287
00:17:08.519 --> 00:17:12.759
that NASA was sending people to Mayoki, which then spread

288
00:17:12.799 --> 00:17:16.720
like wildfire, and people kept repotting. A sudden surge of

289
00:17:16.759 --> 00:17:20.599
gringos in trucks in the pueblo, Oh my god. And

290
00:17:20.680 --> 00:17:23.160
to them, this could only be NASA. No one else

291
00:17:23.200 --> 00:17:26.359
would be there in trucks, like, yeah, all these white

292
00:17:26.359 --> 00:17:31.960
people in trucks automatically NASA. A reporter for el Eraldo,

293
00:17:32.079 --> 00:17:35.279
the Chiawa, who initially was the first one to arrive

294
00:17:35.359 --> 00:17:37.119
to Moyoki and talk to these kids, and he's the

295
00:17:37.160 --> 00:17:39.559
one who was like, no, this isn't true. He was

296
00:17:39.599 --> 00:17:41.559
interviewed in two thousand and nine about this. He's like

297
00:17:41.599 --> 00:17:45.759
alienstannact like this, yeah. True. He was like, I'm just

298
00:17:45.839 --> 00:17:49.440
doing my job, but I never saw anything myself, And

299
00:17:49.480 --> 00:17:53.200
he told the interviewee he saw no evidence that the

300
00:17:53.240 --> 00:17:56.599
monitos ever existed. The only picture he was ever able

301
00:17:56.680 --> 00:17:59.119
to get were the pictures of the holes in the

302
00:17:59.119 --> 00:18:02.559
ground that the kids supposedly saw that alien creatures emerged from.

303
00:18:03.279 --> 00:18:06.640
And he believed that this was just the kid's stories

304
00:18:06.720 --> 00:18:11.000
running wild or mass hysteria. And he never saw trucks,

305
00:18:11.519 --> 00:18:15.920
a surge of gringos and trucks, nor did he believe

306
00:18:15.920 --> 00:18:19.599
that NASA would go and investigate this. He's like, why

307
00:18:19.599 --> 00:18:22.240
where did they go? And then I was like, I

308
00:18:22.359 --> 00:18:25.039
wasn't purposely spreading this story. It's just that they told

309
00:18:25.079 --> 00:18:28.160
me to go investigate, and I wasting. Yeah I did.

310
00:18:28.240 --> 00:18:30.359
I went and I was reporting when I was being told.

311
00:18:30.400 --> 00:18:34.359
But either the kids are saying this. Yeah. And then

312
00:18:34.599 --> 00:18:38.720
another witness named Dianam, who was friends with Willy, she

313
00:18:38.880 --> 00:18:42.160
came forward and she said that one time Willie took

314
00:18:42.200 --> 00:18:45.039
her to go see the monitos and that one of

315
00:18:45.039 --> 00:18:47.640
the monitos had bit Willi And so then they went

316
00:18:47.680 --> 00:18:50.000
to the clinic and the doctor there told them it

317
00:18:50.119 --> 00:18:53.200
was like a spider bite or something. Others believed that

318
00:18:53.240 --> 00:18:56.759
what the kids saw were actually frogs, and then their

319
00:18:56.799 --> 00:19:00.880
imaginations ran wild, and especially because they had been raining

320
00:19:00.920 --> 00:19:03.119
for several days in a row. And I guess that

321
00:19:03.119 --> 00:19:05.640
brings frogs out. I don't know. I don't know anything

322
00:19:05.640 --> 00:19:09.119
about frogs. I'm not a frog expert. Yeah, this is

323
00:19:09.160 --> 00:19:12.799
just what what the source said. Either way, Mioki has

324
00:19:12.880 --> 00:19:16.920
become a tourist destination because of the story. And they

325
00:19:16.920 --> 00:19:19.720
have this event where you can go and paint like

326
00:19:19.759 --> 00:19:24.079
a ceramic monito, and they called it something like paint

327
00:19:24.079 --> 00:19:26.759
the Monito and then you see all these little painted

328
00:19:26.880 --> 00:19:29.720
Monitos all over Milki. But so they look like this,

329
00:19:30.920 --> 00:19:33.640
it's very close. I'll show you. I think we need

330
00:19:33.640 --> 00:19:36.559
to go paint our own monitos. You know what, I think?

331
00:19:36.599 --> 00:19:39.880
You're right, Yeah, you'll see these painted monitos all over Milky.

332
00:19:40.400 --> 00:19:44.720
And so, like there was another resurgence of this legend

333
00:19:45.000 --> 00:19:49.559
because one of the witnesses wound up dead in his

334
00:19:49.680 --> 00:19:52.759
home in the like late two thousands, I want to say,

335
00:19:54.039 --> 00:19:56.839
And it was Willie. He didn't live in a Milky anymore.

336
00:19:56.880 --> 00:19:59.039
But when he was found there was cuts all over him,

337
00:19:59.240 --> 00:20:03.759
like gold lines. Yeah, not super deep, like just a

338
00:20:03.799 --> 00:20:08.920
bunch of straight lines that were strange to people. And

339
00:20:10.039 --> 00:20:12.279
so he had all these lacerations on him, and then

340
00:20:12.319 --> 00:20:15.920
his organs weren't missing, and they said that his blood

341
00:20:15.960 --> 00:20:20.920
had been drained. And so people were like attributing this

342
00:20:21.359 --> 00:20:25.640
to the aliens. Yeah, to the monitos. Wow, And that's

343
00:20:25.640 --> 00:20:28.119
actually not true. That was an urban legend that was

344
00:20:28.160 --> 00:20:30.720
spread about poor Willie. Can you imagine that? Wait, so

345
00:20:30.839 --> 00:20:34.599
he wasn't even dead, he was dead in reality, he

346
00:20:34.680 --> 00:20:37.559
was wrong than just stabbed um multiple times. I mean,

347
00:20:37.599 --> 00:20:41.119
that's that sucks that he that happened to him, and

348
00:20:41.119 --> 00:20:43.799
then his family had to be like hearing, probably like

349
00:20:43.880 --> 00:20:46.559
neighbors being like, oh did you know, like bit she

350
00:20:46.640 --> 00:20:50.720
was robbed? Okay, yeah, yeah, so his organs were intaxes.

351
00:20:50.799 --> 00:20:53.680
He was not drained of his blood. Wow. Someone just

352
00:20:53.720 --> 00:20:55.640
made this up and run with it. Yeah, and then

353
00:20:55.640 --> 00:20:57.920
it was spread. So I want to make it clear

354
00:20:58.039 --> 00:21:00.759
that that's not what happened. The money didn't come back

355
00:21:00.799 --> 00:21:04.880
for WILLI, which is what was being spread. Were insinuated.

356
00:21:06.519 --> 00:21:10.480
But yeah, the story of the Monitos has been attributed

357
00:21:10.519 --> 00:21:14.640
to mass hysteria. But some people really, you know, they

358
00:21:14.640 --> 00:21:19.559
believe something happened in Miochi. Interesting, what do you think?

359
00:21:21.640 --> 00:21:25.680
I think it does? Are real? I don't believe they

360
00:21:25.680 --> 00:21:28.799
came back for WILLI, but I don't believe. I don't think that. Yeah,

361
00:21:29.279 --> 00:21:36.720
I believe in Google Pancho, Gispin, Crispin. Oh, Crispin. We

362
00:21:36.839 --> 00:21:42.200
got the other ones. In fact, justice for them. Google Pancho,

363
00:21:42.319 --> 00:21:47.480
gaspad and and Crispin. They did nothing of the sports.

364
00:21:47.759 --> 00:21:50.680
They were never Yeah, they were very nice to the

365
00:21:50.680 --> 00:21:53.759
four kids. Yeah, they talked to them. They were like,

366
00:21:53.759 --> 00:21:56.880
where you're just study? We like the guys. Yeah, the

367
00:21:56.880 --> 00:22:03.279
same names. See Pancho but yeah, those were just some

368
00:22:03.319 --> 00:22:05.720
stories from Chihuaha. This would have been a longer episode,

369
00:22:06.920 --> 00:22:11.319
but my ass wasn't able to make it happen. So yeah,

370
00:22:11.480 --> 00:22:14.279
you know you we're not out of time. I'm thinking,

371
00:22:14.359 --> 00:22:17.400
we're all. I'm thinking though of doing a Chihuahua Part

372
00:22:17.400 --> 00:22:21.559
two because there's still way more stories and then does it. Yes,

373
00:22:21.759 --> 00:22:24.640
we'll also do a case because there's also, unfortunately so

374
00:22:24.680 --> 00:22:27.799
many true crime cases from Chihuahua, so we can do both.

375
00:22:27.920 --> 00:22:30.519
We can do both for next episode. We'll rearrange our

376
00:22:30.519 --> 00:22:34.160
schedule a little bit. Y'all. We are planners now, we

377
00:22:34.200 --> 00:22:38.079
are organized curlies. We have a schedule. We sat down

378
00:22:38.039 --> 00:22:42.119
on topics up until mid March. Mid March, can you

379
00:22:42.200 --> 00:22:45.000
bel for us? No, it's huge because like sadly, what

380
00:22:45.160 --> 00:22:49.279
all almost always happens is the two days before we're like,

381
00:22:49.319 --> 00:22:52.279
do we have notes? Oh my god, scrambling, scrambling. Yeah,

382
00:22:52.319 --> 00:22:54.599
and then once in a while we'll be like, let's

383
00:22:54.680 --> 00:22:58.480
do these set of notes. And that's the big episodes

384
00:22:58.519 --> 00:23:01.559
that have like a ton of parts. Those are those

385
00:23:01.559 --> 00:23:06.200
ones that were actually planned, so like the Gloriabi ones,

386
00:23:07.799 --> 00:23:11.680
all the like uh true crime cases in Mexico, like

387
00:23:12.400 --> 00:23:16.359
those episodes were all planned and like actually not rushed.

388
00:23:16.920 --> 00:23:19.440
But sometimes we're just like, yeah, we don't I don't know,

389
00:23:19.599 --> 00:23:22.839
I don't know what is going on. But no, this

390
00:23:23.000 --> 00:23:28.160
year we're gonna be organized. So yeah, yeah, okay, let's

391
00:23:28.279 --> 00:23:30.240
uh take a little break here and then we'lc come

392
00:23:30.279 --> 00:23:42.240
back with spooky recommendations and we're back. Do you have

393
00:23:42.279 --> 00:23:46.880
any spooky recommendations? I don't think I do. I started

394
00:23:46.960 --> 00:23:49.400
listening to a book and then for some reason, I'm

395
00:23:49.480 --> 00:23:53.480
not listening to as much audiobooks. Oh well, I've been

396
00:23:53.480 --> 00:23:54.160
