In honor of National Hispanic Heritage Month, our topic this week is the infamous watery wailer: La Llorona (not Moaning Myrtle). We discuss the political, racial, and social roots behind the Latinx tale and its many offshoots, because Ara - once again and to no one's surprise - had no self-control and used her publication on La Llorona archetypes as essentially the entire script. Listen as the Grim Sisters discover La Llorona's aversion to feet, hatred of wild dogs, and her odd love for ditches. We wrap up this tale with some firsthand accounts of meeting La Llorona that made both of us shiver and caused Ara to have to anxious-pee a lot. Stick around at the end for our infamous bloopers (that are honestly starting to get longer than our actual content). --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/wicked-weird-and-grim/message Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/wicked-weird-and-grim/support
