Dark Folklore Of South America

From the depths of the Amazon to the mist-shrouded peaks of the Andes, ancient voices whisper through time, telling tales of spirits, curses, and haunted places. Dark Folklore of South America takes you on a journey through one of the world's richest landscapes of legend — a realm where the supernatural and the natural intertwine. Within these pages dwell the ghosts of lost souls, shapeshifters of river and forest, and lights that lead the living astray. Patrick Coyne explores stories passed down through generations — from the mournful cry of La Llorona to the eerie glow of La Luz Mala, from the Devil's Light of the mountains to the phantom guardians of sacred rivers. Each legend reveals more than mystery; it reflects the soul of a continent shaped by belief, reverence, and fear. Drawing on centuries of oral tradition and cultural history, this book uncovers how these tales continue to haunt, teach, and inspire. Haunting, atmospheric, and deeply rooted in cultural truth, Dark Folklore of South America invites you to step beyond the veil — into a land where myth breathes, and darkness tells the stories of the living and the dead.
