    Los Ghosts Mios

    Los Ghosts Mios

    Once upon a time, there was a child. They lay sleeping in their room, dreaming of whatever little kids dream of. Without warning, without knowing why. The child suddenly woke up staring at the foot of the bed. There, right there inside their room stood a man. Or, well, not exactly a man. It looked like a man, a short man with a distinctive hat. A very distinctive Fedora style hat.

    Haunting at the Hotel Figueroa

    Haunting at the Hotel Figueroa

    Today, I am going to share a personal experience I had over the course of two day at the Hotel Figueroa in downtown Los Angeles. As a wannabe-skeptic, it left me questioning everything I thought I knew.

    Duendes

    Duendes

    Folklore is full of stories of Little People known by many names. The Wompanoag tribe call them pukwudgies. The Comanche call them nunnupi. In Scandinavia they’re called nisse. In Great Britain, Ireland, and Scotland there are fae, pixies, tylwyth teg, and broonies. And those of us from regions settled by the Spanish or Portuguese, anywhere from the Philippines to the Caribbean, have duendes.

    Las Sirenas

    Las Sirenas

    Thanks to Disney, most people imagine mermaids as beautiful humanoids, with human upper bodies and beautiful fish tails, who rescue humans and sing with all their sea-dwelling friends. But mermaids, called sirenas in Spanish, have historically been much darker...

Love this podcast

I found you from another podcast and am happy to find someone who focuses on Latin American and Caribbean lore. Especially as someone who was raised not being told about stories and myths and feeling disconnected to my culture because of it.

Andiie G. ,

Love it!

I am so exited for a show that focuses on latin/caribbean culture! The majority of podcasts focus on US or Europe lore, so I am excited for representation! Plus I really enjoy the way the stories are told!
