The Hanged Girl

La ahorcadita

In South Baja California there is a town called Todos Santos, where there’s a legend. Those who are familiar with it, tell that Matilda, a pregnant 15 years old young girl, died mysteriously hanged in a tree. According to the villagers, the hanged girl grants miracles to those who bring prayers and gifts, though no one knows what she took in return. Thus, the mystery of her death still wanders the streets.
