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

soy la mas macha del grupo me pidieron un ride y ni tenia carro!!! creo que me gusto se parecia mucho a mi y nos hicimos mas amigas mucha gente nos ha confunde!!

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?

all ma life i’ve heard a bunch of wierd a$$ stories bout la llorona and la quija board….pretty freaky…i beieve it all even tho i’ve never had an experience wit either of them…but i know ppl who have..so yeah…and wat everyone needs to know also is that la quija board is NOT A GAME…serio..i don’t know why the fu

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!

this is a stupid story butt there are more stupid stories about this same point.I dont no wich STUPID STORY to believe

this story is wrong.i know it!

This story is true my grandpa had a ranch in Mexico my uncles and my mom all heard her saying ay mis hijos. is scary.My grandpa’s ranch was surrounded by rivers.

in the first comment i ment the story is missing some stuff.As i said my mom heard la llorona and so did the rest of her siblings.even when it stops raining
and their is puddles u can hear her . like my grandparents, they had family over at their house
they where in the last room in the house because that’s the game room it was like about 5:00pm
and it stoped raining for a second everybody was quiet and they heard la llorona saying ay mis hijos. i know this story pretty well because i lived in that ranch for about 2 months.it’s really true

all my family has played it b4 es tan raro. i freaked out!toda mifamily lo jugo.en serio it works!LA QUIJA IS NOT A GAME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

My grandfather past away about 1 1/2 ago and he told my mom that when he was living in Nayarit, Mexico he had expirienced acouple of huntings of his own. He was a man that loved to drink alot and one day when he was walkin home from a cantina (bar) he saw a black dog following him, he looked in his eyes and saw that they were red he said that the dog had attaced him so when he got home my grandmother asked him what was wrong and he told her what had happend. my mom still remembers that day she says that he was coverd in blood and scraches all over and that he sobered up real fast. My mom also remembers that when she was a kid growing up in Mexico she and my oldest aunt would accompany each other to the bathroom that was out side their house and that they would hear horse carrages and that they would go see what it was and that nothing was there.

I had a an expirience when i was like a year old. I still remember even thought my brothers say i could not remember cause i was only 1 but i still do. I was born in LA, Cali and my family had owned a house befor i was born i really don’t remember quite much but i think they had bout another house near East LA and when we moved in i remember (and still dream) that every night there was a shadow of an old lady with her hair up in a bun, she always used to point at me and tell me to go to her but with her finger, every night i would go but never really open the curtains, i say that because i slept in a room with my mom and dad and my crib was close to there bed so i would climb out and go to the window which was beside their bed, so that night all i remember was climbing out of the bed and going to the window and opening the curtains and i felt her scrach me on my left hand my om says that the next day she took me to a catholic church and the prist prayed a little and gave her a jar full of holy water and told her to spray all over the house i still tell that story and she says that every thing i say is true that i really did tell her that when i was a little kid i can’t believe it myself at time but it is true. she also said that there was a picture of the old lady and her 3 sons and her husband hung on the wall in the living room and that every time she would take down the picture that the picture would be back on the wall the next time she past by…..yeah i know it’s a little freaky and unbleivable that i still remember but it’s true that happend no lie thats my word. =}

SO THE STORY OF LA LLORONA STARED IN MEXICO BUT PEOPLE HAD SEEN HER EVEYWHERE LIKE I SAID I DO BELIVED IN GHOST WHO KNOW WHAT REALY HAPPEND GOD IS THE ONLY ONE THAT KNOWS.

Is this really true?????..Let me know!!..Cause i also do believe in ghosts and supernatural things!!..But i was just wondering if this is really real!!..???

if u want to know if it is true y dont u check it out for yourself? I’ve lived in Hammond all my life (which is nextdoor to gary) and I have seen her several times on Cline ave. U have to try a few times, she is not always there. but when she is it is really creepy.

In Vieques Puerto Rico there is a true story about a women that killed her kids on a road side. My Cousin saw her one nigth coming back from the beach. The story is that back in the day this women had 3 kids, her husband leaves her for another women so she goes and looks for him taking her 3 kids with her, and on that road side there isnt no light post, only in the conors, there isnt no houses there either just a dark road, she was trying to get to the beach area which was a spot to hang out till to this day its the place to be at night, the lady he left her for leaved in that area, anyway in the dark road she kills her 3 children just to get back at her husband then she killed herself and every other night she appears to men driving alone, she asks for a ride, or sometimes she said that she needs help looking for her kids, and if u keep on going she appears in the back sit in your car, she tell u not to look back if u look back she looks all ugly blood on her then disappears leaving you crazy, there have been 3 teens that went crazy cuz they said that they saw her. My cousin said that he pulled over to help the lady, when he got out she asked him to help her look for her kids not thinking he said yea, she walked in where the tree’s was, my cousin said he didnt go in then he realized where he was then drove off like a bat out of hell. Sometimes she will not appear you just hear crying as you pass the area with the music off where she killed them. I heard it one night it was me and my whole family (U kno when people fit in to a pick up truck lol) as we drove by all you hear is crying my aunt got scared and told my grandpa to speed up lol

so true man once i saw her myself she scared me half to death i was like “WTF, OMG UR LA LLORONA” I was screaming and running away and good thing i found people near by. phew thank god she didnt mistaken me for her children. although i do feel pity for. 500 years as past and she will never go to heaven unless she finds her children. how awful…

how tragic… just hearing the story over and over makes me feel so srry for her. poor Maria (La Llorona)…i wish i could help her look for her children so she could finally rest in peace with her two children…

Hey this story is just a rip off of the pilot supernatural episode (very cool show). I very much doubt its true. Here in england we stopped believing in life after death and god in the 1980’s. We now only worship Nintendo and tomato ketchup.

lA LLORONA IS A MEXICAN MYTH. i BELIEVE ITS TRUE,BUT IT DID NOT HAPPEN IN INDIANA. IT HAPPENED IN MEXICO SOMEWHERE. I’M 25 YEARS OLD AND I GREW UP LISTENING TO THAT S***. AND MY MOM WHO IS 48 YEARS OLD ALSO GREW UP TO THAT S*** ALSO. BUT I KNOW FOR A FACT IT WASN’T IN INDIANA.

I’ve heard another variation of this story, only this one takes place somewhere in Mexico/Southwestern US, and doesn’t involve dead children (although I think that’s part of the actual legend) In this variation I read, she appeared as a beautiful young woman who hitched a ride with a man travelling late at night and she turned into a skeletal demon. But I think they’re basically the same story, only with the emphasis on two different aspects of the legend

that is creepy
