La Llorona.  The Weeping Woman.   A horrifying apparition, caught between Heaven and Hell, trapped in a terrible fate sealed by her own hand.  The mere mention of her name has struck terror around the world for generations.  

In life, she drowned her children in a jealous rage, throwing herself in the churning river after them as she wept in pain.
