They know that I pray a lot, and I can explain you what you have to do I tell them, either to you put a cigarette on …. , or a glass with honey in it Because that little animal comes looking for that In general, lots of people don´t believe in those things, they start to believe in them when things happen to them It is a quiet neighbourhood. It’s almost the same every day Doors are closed, doors are opened; lights go on. I don´t know if we should believe or not As most people of this neighbourhood are its founders, everybody knows everyone I just tell them what I have seen; Those are things that have happened For example, when we are sitting next to the heater, I tell them the stories and they sometimes get frightened I don’t believe in anything either; I am actually the most naïve person of all. Many things have happened to me. Because what people want to know it´s from here, the neighbourhood If you go to the line area, crossing the open space, there is a bridge that crosses over the stream If you stand over there, it is said that you can hear the noises of the old train that used to go down there And voices and noises are supposed to be heard When my cousins and I used to ride the bike down there, It was Heard of the ‘pomperito’ and the wolf you had to run and if he saw you, something bad could happen The story of the ‘pombero’ they said tha he ask you for cigarettess, If it whistles to you, then you should go away. But if he has seen you then you have to give cigarettes to it My daughters are used to sleeping with theirs legs crossed, because when my sister came to take care of them She would tell them to do it that way since the Wolf would go under them So they were raised with that believing, which was a fear that my sister, their aunt, gave them without meaning to.. And it is also a fear that I transmitted to my sister unwillingly by rumours that go by word of mouth On a summer day, the dogs started barking so I went outside to look And when I was outside, I saw a dog this big, curved to its back and with red eyes So i called my dad and said to him, “Daddy, check this out, there is a weird dog!” And he said “No, that is not a dog, it is a wolf”. “No, it can´t be it”. “YES, it is a Wolf, GO INSIDE!” The story of the ‘pombero’ … When it is angry, he makes a sound of a bird It cries like a bird making a rare noise I am not frightened, I don´t know. But that there are, I’m sure I Can´t talk about that There are always ghost here in the neighbourhood Ghost, the ‘pombero’, the Wolf, everything IS TRUE. I have seen it in the back It used to transform itself on Cruz St.. There, where a cross is, there is where it used to transform itself It was sitting next to the oven like a red-eyed dog That is the ‘pompero’ It was sitting right there, and looking me like this “OH my god!” I said, and it disappeared Nobody lives in front of here because there are ghosts inside. But dark things we sometimes we see it sitting at the door, but it suddenly disappears Otilia, The Great, my grandmother All of them go to her She is like a mother to all of them If you are sick, you go to see her, always you go to Otilia Here they tell me, or they will do it, but they wait for me to tell them Because nobody knows what i could know, but they don´t know how to explain either.So that’s when i explain it to them So that they know why those things happen to them “May God and the *** Mary give you luck” “In the name of the father, the son, the holy spirit, May it be forever and all the centuries, Amen I will give you this candle in the name of the *** Mary “In the name of the father, the son, the holy spirit, May it be forever and all the centuries, Amen Nobody wants that house since there is a ghost inside. It is said that during the full moon, girls have to sleep with their legs crossed Whenever it rains, we get up and cover the mirrors. I don´t know whether it is normal or not, but it is to us When it whistles lowly to you it is because it is far away from you. If it whistles loudly, it iw because it is close to you
