Thank you very much dear friends for the company and reading my post, the days have passed very quickly, again we have arrived on Saturday, day in which my blog becomes mystical and scary, for those who enjoy horror movies, it's time of a pause and enjoy a reading, natural or supernatural facts of life, dark legends told to us by our parents. I invite you to enjoy an urban legend as we did in our childhood.

The land without evil throughout history lodge different cultures, believers and superstitious of paranormal things and beyond, according to their beliefs between earth and hell there is a portal, where assiduously there are entities that return to their homes or places of origins.

 

Welcome dear friends to another Saturday of suspense, Corrientes are very superstitious, since children were inculcated to believe and respect paranormal things, the land without evil houses thousands of stories of events that have been witnessed.

My mother's story told me today, it happened many years ago, when his father was still a little boy.

In his story he says that his father loved to tell his life stories, usually they were dark tales. To tell the truth, I could not judge him! since he lived in a very favorable environment for these situations to occur, a place forgotten in time and far from any civilization.

At that time it did not even have a name where my grandparents lived, today it is known as the corner of San Judas, despite having spent many years, this place continues to be depopulated. Even maybe worse! many years ago the field lost interest, there is an interesting proposal for the peasant on behalf of the government, in this situation the inhabitants of the place abandon their houses being uninhabited and at the mercy of any outlaw, some settle in these taperas with the intention of perpetrate any criminal activity, if today you can see this scenario, imagine what could have been more than a hundred years ago.

The family of my mother were the pioneers of the place, being the first gives the possibility of taking more land than others, even choosing the best place, these were the reasons that my grandparents had their farms in the best location in the region

The ranch was established on a hill a few meters from a stream that was the arm of the river Paraná, the largest river in this region of the world. The Paraná River was to the east and a few kilometers from the grandparents' racho, an important supplier of white meat.

Shortly after the arrival of the grandparents the place began to populate, every day new settlers arrived, until it became a beautiful colony, each settler brought with him profession and knowledge, some were dedicated to wood production, agricultural and other jobs. agriculture and so the economic activity of the place arose.

When the place began to prosper there was no shortage of politicians to arrive, they were responsible for spreading the prosperity of the colony and the arrival of the workers swallows, (Cheap and unskilled labor)

For my grandfather and his brothers it was a real adventure to live in this region, seeing many children arrive every day caused a huge happiness, in fact to all the inhabitants of the place, a place full of children is a bet on the future.

The family of my grandparents were the owners of more hectares of land, this gave the possibility to be dedicated to both agriculture and livestock, was the family that more swallows employee hire.

Hiring cheap hands contributed positively to the economy of the ranch, were people who had no obligation to provide a place to live, as they lived in community in their own carts that adapted to live within them.

It was very common to hire a swallow employee for a day and the other did not see them again, it is not known how they had precise news of work better payment, for this reason they migrated daily.

The person in charge of hiring the staff was an uncle of my grandfather, depending on the activity of the day, it was the number of people who were hired, priority was always given to the staff who attended more often, my grandfather for being a child could choose with whom work and I usually worked with this guy who did nothing. I only hired staff, even though my grandfather underestimated his uncle's work, in fact he was the most important, he had to make others work. That can be very complicated!

Something that caught my grandfather's attention was the instability of the young women to work, the girls came once or twice a week and did not see them anymore, once commented his concern with his uncle.

-Why do young girls come to work once or twice a week and never come back, or even see them?

The guy who had incredible humor, for this reason was in charge of the staff, answered as usual with his original humor.

-What do you want me to do with those girls? What do I know because they do not come anymore? That's the reason for being called swallows!

With the tone of the answer was more than enough to learn that this guy did not like the questions, however my grandfather continued to see that the girls disappeared.

 

One afternoon he discussed with his father the situation of the disappearance of the girls, his father could see his concern and to reassure him said that at dawn the next day they would go to the place where all the swallows stop.

The next morning, my grandfather with his father left for the place, to get there they had to pass the whole colony, that meant they had to cross meadows, forests, lakes and lagoons, when they reached one of them my grandfather saw in the distance a beautiful bird that jama had seen in his life

his father reassured him saying that it was a flamenco, but that he was also amazed, the land without evil It was not a land of flamingos, much less to walk alone, they always moved in flocks.

When they wanted to get closer to appreciate it better, it disappeared from the place as if it were a mirage, imagine a child in those situations, drilled the head of his father with questions, while he responded they continued the trip.

When arriving at the place they found families very worried with the desapasiones of these young people, they were young people who traveled in community but they were single, for this reason nobody demanded by their absence.

An old woman who was traveling in one of the last carts, saw the concern of my grandfather, stealthily approached them and said.

- But what a perceptive child? Come child! My very obedient grandfather approached the old woman who had all the appearance of a witch

-Do you do what you notice the absences of the young?

-The truth, a while ago!

- I consult you, have you seen something that caught your attention?

- Not me, but my father does!

- Come man, come closer!

- Yes, something called my attention, but nothing has to do with this topic, they are things of this child so witty!

- Please tell me, maybe I have to over the bill!

- Nothing important that helps to clarify this topic, only a flamenco!

- A flamenco you said? Only one, and in this area? That is not normal, Papa! And you know it?

- Where have you seen this animal?

- On the way here, passing the woods, next to the lagoon! What struck us most was that it disappeared like a mirage.

-Siiii, I've heard this before! The devil knows for devil! But more knows as old. Join all the men you can, and tomorrow at dawn we are all here and from here we will all go to that place together. Please avoid going alone with the child for that place! Change your path when you return to your home, you have no idea what we are facing, the old woman concluded.

As much as my grandfather insisted, he could not attend with the group of men, as I thought the woman left together until the lago izoró, place of the flamenco meeting, once there they made several groups and went into the dense forest, to some places They were impenetrable.

The mother's father affirms that he heard from rescuers' mouths that this place was hell, they found precarious huts with very strong odors, hollows under the earth with the same nauseating smell and remains of human bones, everything indicated that they were young girls lost ,

one of them found the perpetrator, shot several shots that hit with his shotgun, but the little man did not even flinch with the shots  I even tried to attack him with a hatchet, if he did not tell the story, he was saved when he heard the shots other men came to meet him, the goblin disappeared from nowhere, in his escape I forget part of the booty.

Several dwarf women were found moored next to a large tree, the smell of the place was so strong that you could not breathe,

women were unpresentable, even some were pregnant at the incredible find the old woman told a story that had happened in her village when she was very young.

In a similar scenario in the afternoon a flamenco appeared that caught the attention of young people, in that place the boys and girls were disappeared, when they approached them, the bird disappeared and the little demon was made known, kept them in captivity, those who made a lot of scandal ate them, then buried their bones in caves, the women made them dwarfs sexually abusing them.
