One of the most famous legends in Guatemala is “The Weeping Lady”, it is about a woman who drowned her children and then started crying and looking for them because she didn’t remember what she did. According to the tale, she is still searching them, and she stoles any child to offset the emptiness of her heart. She appears in different ways and places. People can hear her nearby, far away or sometimes she can attack others, including children and adults.
One person tells that one night, while my she was sleeping, she woke up suddenly because of a weird noise, she was frightened. Then, she clearly heard a cry, so she peeked through the window and saw a woman walking near the house although she heard the cry far away.
