• El Chupacabras en Chile (Español)

  El Chupacabras es uno de los críptidos latinoamericanos más conocidos. Los primeros avistamientos datan de 1995 en Puerto Rico, pero algunos de los relatos más extraños provienen de Chile. En el año 2000, se produjo una serie de ataques atribuidos al Chupacabras, algunos de los cuales involucraron al ejército chileno y, supuestamente, a la NASA. Cristina le cuenta a Carmen un poco sobre la historia del Chupacabras. Terminan con recomendaciones que dan miedo, en este capitulo fueron Vacaciones de Terror 1 y 2, el Espinazo del Diablo y platicaron un poco sobre la nueva pelicula de Guillermo del Toro, Frankenstein. If you have a spooky story to share, email [email protected] or leave us a voicemail at the Espooky Hot Line (360)836-4486.
