Yep that’s true I have also heard about that and it’s said to be true !

this is a true story cause i’ve seen her at night with my cousin by the river and she always screams “mis hijos” (don’t know how to spell)

Yep dat is defently true!!….heard that when my english teacher was talking about it!!……it’s scary….!…..

that story is true i’ve hearded so many times, my dad even saw her one time when he went to go visit my grandma Guanajuato,Mexico he told me he was so scared that he didnt sleep for days cause he thought he was going to see right in front of his face. My mom heard her crying mis hijos like shes looking for her children she drown. I heard if theres little kids out side at night and she comes that night she takes them away and drowns them. That happend to one of my friends little couzin when she went to go visit he aunt. My aunt told me that when shes ready to come out the wind starts blowing real hard and it starts rainning and when you hear shes far away well she close to you and when you hear her close to you she far away crying i know so many stories so who ever goes to mexico watch out for LA Llorona.

I have never been able to completley debunk this one even though it seems to be more popular among people who don’t live in our region. This actually derives from a mexican folk tale of sorts. As the story goes, a beautiful Indian princess, Dona Luisa de Loveros, fell in love with a handsome Mexican nobleman named Don Nuna de Montesclaros, The princess loved the nobleman deeply and had two children by him, but Montesclaros refused to marry her. When he finally deserted her and married another woman, Dona Luisa went mad with rage and stabbed her two children. Authorities found her wondering the street, sobbing, her clothes covered in blood. They charged her with infanticide and sent her to the gallows.

There are no records that collaborate the common story that floats around about the woman drowning her two illigitimate children in the river. However there have been numerous children die in the Calumet River. In fact just last week a two year old was ejected from the car during an accident into the river where she drowned. I will not claim this false as there have been children and adults die in the river over the years.

I HEARD THAT SAME STORY AND ITS LIKE THAT IN SOUTH BEND ON THE OLD ROLLER COASTER RD. ONLY ITS NOT A PERSON IT IS A PHANTOM CAR THAT CHASES YOU DOWN AND THEN VANISHES. THIS SPRING BREAK ME & MY SISTER & MY FRIEND SAVANNAH ARE GOING TO WEST VIRGINIA TO GO TO MOUNDSVILLE PENITENTIARY TO TAKE A TOUR THROUGH THE HAUNTED JAIL IT COST $8.00 FOR ADULTS AND $6.00 FOR KIDS (I THINK) BUT YEAH I CANT WAIT WELL CAN YOU ALSO SEND ME THE DIRECTIONS TO THIS PLACE. THANK YOU

I had heard the same story of a lady in a hill in Ciales, Puerto Rico. At nigh if you pass real slow thru this hill she will get into the back seat of your car, if you look thru your front view mirror you will see a lady sitting down and when you look back, there is nobody there.

Ok what happends if you dont take her to the site of her childrens death. What if you try to take her out to a bar or something. Does she get pissed off and try to kill you?

I’ve lived in Gary all of my life and heard all about this woman and have actualy known several men who worked at the steel mills and used that road everyday that claim to have seen this woman.

I dont think that you put enough details in it ,but,
I do think that it is true, and maybe if you had more details it would make a reallty good story.

Decen que tambien sometimes you’ll hear her crying for her kids.Tambien their is this thing que se llama la mona and if you hear her from far , far away its that she’s close.They say that she’ll try to take you away.If you hear her far, far away is that she is really close.I

Nice site. You are doing a great service to the web

my cuzins granma has a pix of her and la llorola and she killed her aunt

I know thia ia true, as I have seen this woman while I was in my teens. I am 45 years old. The place to see her is when you drive over the bridge on Cline Avenue. It does not matter if you are going northbound or southbound.

This strange and frightening phantom has been making appearances in the old Gary neighborhood of Cudahee for many years. She is usually seen near Fifth and Cline Avenue. Years ago, Cudahee was made up of mostly Mexican immigrants who came north to find work in the steel mills. Many people believe that the legend of La Llorona came with them….The original story tells of a young widow who lived with her sons in a small town near Mexico City. It seems that she fell in love with a young nobleman who refused to marry her because of her children. The woman went mad and one night she savagely murdered her children. She ran to her lover to tell him what she had done but he was repulsed and frightened by her and threw her out of his house.

Now completely insane, she roamed the streets, her children’s blood on her hands and dress, weeping and screaming. Before she could be apprehended by the authorities, her body was discovered face down in a pool of muddy water.

For hundreds of years, the story of the bloody, woman in white has been told in Mexico City and she was called “La Llorona, the weeping woman”. Some believe this spirit came north with the immigrants but others believe the Mexican population simply gave the name of their legend to a ghost that already existed in Cudahee.

They claim that the ghost is actually that of a woman whose children were killed in an auto accident in the early 1930’s. After their funeral, she returned to the spot many times and wandered the area crying for her children. She died, completely insane, many years ago, but her spirit still continued to wander.

Despite the frequent sightings of La Llorona, she has remained an elusive ghost. Many researchers and investigators have tried in vain to track her down but she remains one step ahead of them, still roaming the night, crying over the loss of the children whose blood still stains her hands.

La LJorona has been reported in the Cudahee section of Gary, Indiana in the northwest comer of the state. She is most often seen near the comer of Fifth and Cline Avenue.

I heard this story, but it originated in Mexico, hence the name. Best I can tell it was just an old folk tale. And now it has immigrated to the states. Also, they have made a movie about it with the same name, check it out!
