Lo Invocamos En Una Casa Abandonada Historias De Terror - REDE

1
00:00:05.080 --> 00:00:11.240
Most believers. Holy Week is recognized
as the major week in which the sacrifice

2
00:00:11.320 --> 00:00:16.600
of Jesus Christ is remembered, although
it is also days in which the devil

3
00:00:16.679 --> 00:00:21.519
is loosed. Those were the teachings
my grandmother Tita gave us, although I

4
00:00:21.600 --> 00:00:26.120
never understood the reason why she told
me that until an unexplainable fact happened to

5
00:00:26.199 --> 00:00:33.200
me in which the only answer was
evil. My grandmother was a very religious

6
00:00:33.240 --> 00:00:39.240
and conservative person. He carried out
all the rituals that the Catholic Church called

7
00:00:39.320 --> 00:00:43.560
for. When she arrived at Lent, she was the most punctual with all

8
00:00:43.600 --> 00:00:49.000
the rites organized by the church of
Cologne. The Sunday of bouquets. He

9
00:00:49.079 --> 00:00:53.920
bought a bouquet for each of his
children. My grandmother believed that if I

10
00:00:54.119 --> 00:00:59.280
put the blessed bouquet behind the door, it would help to keep evil spirits

11
00:00:59.320 --> 00:01:02.439
from entering her house. Anyway,
I was asking my mom to do the

12
00:01:02.560 --> 00:01:07.640
same thing. My grandmother considered Holy
Friday the biggest day of Lent. He

13
00:01:07.719 --> 00:01:11.480
said that at three o' clock
in the afternoon it was the time when

14
00:01:11.519 --> 00:01:15.879
Jesus died and that from that hour
glory was closed. It was the moment

15
00:01:15.920 --> 00:01:22.640
the devil went out to make his
own. One way to do so was

16
00:01:22.760 --> 00:01:27.680
to provoke disputes between parents and children, between husbands and friends in any relationship

17
00:01:27.680 --> 00:01:34.799
of friendship, affection or love.
But it didn' t just propitiate fights,

18
00:01:34.239 --> 00:01:38.079
it also led to worse things,
such as murder, robbery, curses,

19
00:01:38.079 --> 00:01:42.159
and possessions. As I grew up, I didn' t care much

20
00:01:42.159 --> 00:01:46.599
about their rituals anymore. He did
not believe in them, nor did he

21
00:01:46.680 --> 00:01:49.959
go so often to his home.
On one occasion we were friends and I

22
00:01:51.000 --> 00:01:55.480
were sitting outside my house on the
sidewalk. My grandmother spent time with her

23
00:01:55.480 --> 00:01:57.680
group of friends. That was the
first time he saw me with a friend

24
00:01:57.760 --> 00:02:02.239
named Paco. I noticed in his
face that he didn' t love that

25
00:02:02.239 --> 00:02:05.599
he was with me. He saw
me and greeted me with his hand.

26
00:02:06.159 --> 00:02:10.479
Paco asked who those women were.
When I told her that my grandmother was

27
00:02:10.520 --> 00:02:15.240
the lady wearing a black veil in
her hair, she laughed. He made

28
00:02:15.280 --> 00:02:21.039
some annoying comments about the people who
were very devoted to the Catholic religion.

29
00:02:21.719 --> 00:02:25.039
I didn' t want to go
into arguments and I tried to forget your

30
00:02:25.039 --> 00:02:30.080
comment. It was the first time
I didn' t like being with Paco,

31
00:02:30.800 --> 00:02:34.280
although I forgot what he said very
soon. He was carrying with him

32
00:02:34.360 --> 00:02:38.560
a new board game to play.
We had agreed that everyone would take one

33
00:02:38.599 --> 00:02:43.280
to pass. On Friday afternoon,
when it was Paco' s turn,

34
00:02:43.599 --> 00:02:47.080
he was carrying a red book.
We laughed when we saw him. The

35
00:02:47.159 --> 00:02:52.199
first thing I thought of was telling
him it wasn' t the time to

36
00:02:52.199 --> 00:02:55.400
study. It was Friday and we
had to forget about school homework, but

37
00:02:57.000 --> 00:03:00.400
he said it wasn' t to
do scullery activities. It wasn' t

38
00:03:00.520 --> 00:03:06.360
what I thought. It was a
different game than the one we had commonly

39
00:03:06.360 --> 00:03:09.680
played. Paco explained the rules of
how to play it. To begin with,

40
00:03:10.080 --> 00:03:14.639
we had to do it at night
in a secluded and quiet place,

41
00:03:14.840 --> 00:03:20.000
so we could start somewhere in the
park or if we preferred one of us

42
00:03:20.159 --> 00:03:24.080
' s house. Marta was the
one who said that we could meet in

43
00:03:24.479 --> 00:03:28.800
hers had caused us a lot of
curiosity about the game of Paco. The

44
00:03:28.879 --> 00:03:34.280
next day we' d play it. Paco arrived with a thick book of

45
00:03:34.560 --> 00:03:38.960
hard red paste. I had the
title I don' t remember anymore.

46
00:03:38.639 --> 00:03:42.759
When he put the book on the
floor, I started looking at it.

47
00:03:43.280 --> 00:03:46.800
It was a common book. The
only particular thing was its color and the

48
00:03:46.919 --> 00:03:52.719
consistency of its cover and back-
ported hard pasta with golden engravings. Looking

49
00:03:52.800 --> 00:03:55.280
for the steps to do a ritual, but I didn' t find it.

50
00:03:55.800 --> 00:04:00.840
Paco told me he wasn' t
going to find it personally. I

51
00:04:00.879 --> 00:04:03.960
was asking the book for anything and
I could be sure that he was going

52
00:04:04.000 --> 00:04:08.439
to grant it to me. Paco
asked Marta to lend him a mirror.

53
00:04:09.319 --> 00:04:13.719
He told us the game was played
between two people. It was complex to

54
00:04:13.800 --> 00:04:17.120
do so among three or more people. First I' d start with one

55
00:04:17.439 --> 00:04:19.319
of us, and then I'
d go on with each of us.

56
00:04:20.040 --> 00:04:25.079
Marta was the first one to want
to play it. Paco turned off the

57
00:04:25.120 --> 00:04:29.800
light of the room, lit four
red candles that he carried, put the

58
00:04:29.800 --> 00:04:33.680
book in his hands, made a
kind of prayer and then kissed the book.

59
00:04:35.040 --> 00:04:40.279
He then placed it in Martha'
s hands, asking her to close

60
00:04:40.439 --> 00:04:44.839
her eyes and ask permission from the
book. Later, Marta, even with

61
00:04:44.920 --> 00:04:49.639
her eyes closed, randomly opened a
page with her finger pointing to some part

62
00:04:49.720 --> 00:04:55.319
of the page. Paco asked him
to read it and asked him if he

63
00:04:55.319 --> 00:04:59.519
had understood what the book had announced
to him. That game doesn' t

64
00:04:59.600 --> 00:05:03.959
make any sense. Marta said look
at all the details in every single word

65
00:05:04.000 --> 00:05:08.920
you read, because there' s
the whole key to what' s going

66
00:05:09.000 --> 00:05:13.839
to happen. The Red book is
talking about a future fact. Paco Marta

67
00:05:13.959 --> 00:05:18.639
told her I really saw her upset. He didn' t like the game

68
00:05:18.639 --> 00:05:23.560
at all. Before he got off
the floor, he saw the mirror again.

69
00:05:23.879 --> 00:05:27.480
I don' t know what he
saw,' cause he screamed so

70
00:05:27.480 --> 00:05:30.240
scared and walked out of the room. I went behind her waiting for her

71
00:05:30.279 --> 00:05:34.759
to tell me what I had seen
in that mirror, but my friend cried

72
00:05:34.839 --> 00:05:40.439
and was afraid, although she was
also upset. He showed me his hands

73
00:05:40.519 --> 00:05:45.319
that were still trembling from fear.
Paco left the room with the book under

74
00:05:45.399 --> 00:05:49.800
his arm. He smiled in a
way that seemed evil to me, then

75
00:05:49.839 --> 00:05:51.720
said he didn' t believe,
that he was going to get that way.

76
00:05:53.399 --> 00:05:58.240
She was supposed to be the bravest, but I had already seen that

77
00:05:58.319 --> 00:06:03.360
she didn' t stand in front
of Marta to tell her that it was

78
00:06:03.360 --> 00:06:06.959
just a game. There was no
reason to get that way. My friend,

79
00:06:08.199 --> 00:06:13.120
she slowly calmed down. We didn' t have the courage to play

80
00:06:13.120 --> 00:06:17.600
anymore. Paco never released his Red
book. Again he was the same introverted

81
00:06:17.639 --> 00:06:25.000
boy of old with a trembling voice. She said goodbye to us all three

82
00:06:25.040 --> 00:06:28.240
of us and left. As soon
as he left. I asked Marta what

83
00:06:28.360 --> 00:06:33.639
she saw. Her. He replied
that in the mirror there was a dark

84
00:06:33.879 --> 00:06:39.079
being with a grimace on his face
laughing at her. He had bigger eyes

85
00:06:39.160 --> 00:06:46.120
than normal, a mouth also huge, with sharp, black teeth. At

86
00:06:46.160 --> 00:06:50.600
that time, I remembered the paragraph
with my finger. She could remember some

87
00:06:50.639 --> 00:06:56.720
important phrases, but we failed to
decipher the message that, according to Paco,

88
00:06:57.279 --> 00:07:00.439
the book could predict the future.
We still have it. We'

89
00:07:00.519 --> 00:07:03.959
re meeting Marta for a longer time. She was still nervous and didn'

90
00:07:04.120 --> 00:07:09.319
t want to leave her alone in
that state. Gloria, my other friend,

91
00:07:10.120 --> 00:07:14.199
said she did have to go.
When we were left alone, Martha

92
00:07:14.240 --> 00:07:16.560
confided to me that she was very
afraid to see an evil being in the

93
00:07:16.560 --> 00:07:23.040
mirror. It was so much fear
that he was still trembling. I had

94
00:07:23.120 --> 00:07:28.439
the feeling that what he read were
not mere words. I was afraid something

95
00:07:28.519 --> 00:07:31.439
bad would happen to him. I
couldn' t stay so late at my

96
00:07:31.519 --> 00:07:36.399
friend' s house because my parents
would worry. I suggested you go home

97
00:07:36.519 --> 00:07:41.759
with me. At first she said
no, but when she saw that she

98
00:07:41.800 --> 00:07:45.199
was going to be left alone,
she decided to go home. Upon arrival,

99
00:07:45.240 --> 00:07:48.399
my mother was surprised to see Marta
I explained to her that I did

100
00:07:48.480 --> 00:07:53.319
not want to be alone. We
decided to sleep together. Marta started calling

101
00:07:53.399 --> 00:07:58.079
her mom, but she didn'
t answer her calls right away. She

102
00:07:58.199 --> 00:08:01.639
did it with her dad, but
it was the same thing she did with

103
00:08:01.720 --> 00:08:07.680
one of her sisters and she did
answer. He barely got to leave the

104
00:08:07.759 --> 00:08:11.360
message because the call was cut off. During the night, my friend was

105
00:08:11.399 --> 00:08:16.800
restless, waking up every moment.
When I got to sleep, I dreamt

106
00:08:16.879 --> 00:08:22.040
of something not so nice, because
I woke up. Suddenly there was a

107
00:08:22.160 --> 00:08:26.519
time when I couldn' t sleep
anymore. I didn' t know if

108
00:08:26.600 --> 00:08:30.480
it was because of my friend'
s nervousness or because I had a strange

109
00:08:30.480 --> 00:08:35.759
feeling. The most likely thing was
that I had been upset about what happened

110
00:08:35.799 --> 00:08:39.279
the next morning. Marta went home
early, we didn' t talk again

111
00:08:39.320 --> 00:08:45.159
for the weekend, until we met
at school. I noticed her calmer.

112
00:08:45.559 --> 00:08:48.759
It seemed that fear had disappeared.
When we saw Paco come to school,

113
00:08:50.159 --> 00:08:54.879
he preferred not to come near us. He probably thought we were going to

114
00:08:54.919 --> 00:09:00.440
claim him for what happened. Marta
was the first to approach and talk to

115
00:09:00.519 --> 00:09:03.799
him as if nothing had happened.
I realized that Paco was very pleased that

116
00:09:03.840 --> 00:09:11.200
our friendship continued. It was strange
that my friend no longer commented on it

117
00:09:11.879 --> 00:09:16.240
because she had seen it very upset, but I thought that everything had been

118
00:09:16.279 --> 00:09:22.639
the result of her nerves and that, surely, when she realized that everything

119
00:09:22.840 --> 00:09:26.039
was in order, she preferred to
forget about the incident. The next few

120
00:09:26.159 --> 00:09:31.440
days were normal. It was a
little over a month before we got back

121
00:09:31.559 --> 00:09:37.200
together to play board games. Paco
didn' t comment, but it was

122
00:09:37.320 --> 00:09:43.000
Marta who first said to play one
of her games again, but Paco said

123
00:09:43.080 --> 00:09:48.159
it wasn' t best to forget
about them. My friend insisted, and

124
00:09:48.240 --> 00:09:52.799
the truth is, Gloria and I
were both very curious to do it.

125
00:09:52.240 --> 00:09:58.240
We insist, too. Our friend
agreed, but told us that the next

126
00:09:58.360 --> 00:10:01.159
game was more intense. That'
s when I remembered what he said to

127
00:10:01.159 --> 00:10:05.519
me. My grandmother told them that
the next week was Good Friday, it

128
00:10:05.519 --> 00:10:09.279
was worth waiting until three o'
clock in the afternoon and checking if it

129
00:10:09.320 --> 00:10:15.440
was true that that day of the
year the devil was loose. My friends

130
00:10:15.480 --> 00:10:18.919
laughed at my comment, insisted and
told them the story that my grandmother told

131
00:10:20.039 --> 00:10:24.720
me on several occasions, although they
didn' t believe me much of what

132
00:10:24.720 --> 00:10:28.639
I told them. We didn'
t have a place to get together.

133
00:10:28.200 --> 00:10:33.440
Paco said we could do it at
his house. It was a little strange

134
00:10:33.480 --> 00:10:39.360
that he offered to offer us to
go because he never talked about his family,

135
00:10:39.360 --> 00:10:41.399
nor did we know exactly where he
lived. But since we had no

136
00:10:41.480 --> 00:10:46.360
other place to go, we agreed
to meet there. Paco asked us to

137
00:10:46.679 --> 00:10:52.600
each carry three candles. Paco'
s house was two- storey, with

138
00:10:52.679 --> 00:10:56.840
a forgotten garden and a rusted-
down gate as soon as we entered the

139
00:10:56.840 --> 00:11:01.919
house, a smell of moisture invaded
luxury. Paco offered us an apology for

140
00:11:03.000 --> 00:11:07.000
the mess in his house, as
there were things lying everywhere, dirty dishes

141
00:11:07.039 --> 00:11:11.120
in the kitchen and a smell so
particular that he couldn' t figure out

142
00:11:11.159 --> 00:11:16.120
what it was. We didn'
t have to go into Paco' s

143
00:11:16.120 --> 00:11:20.240
room. We' re staying in
the living room. He pulled things aside

144
00:11:20.279 --> 00:11:26.240
lying on the ground. He shook
a black mat and asked us to pull

145
00:11:26.279 --> 00:11:31.720
out our candles. Each one was
arranged in a circle. We sat on

146
00:11:31.799 --> 00:11:37.399
the mat around the candles. When
we were ready, he told us that

147
00:11:37.480 --> 00:11:41.840
everyone was going to tell a horror
story when they finished telling it, they

148
00:11:41.840 --> 00:11:46.120
would turn off a candle. We' d tell three stories each. First

149
00:11:46.279 --> 00:11:52.399
Gloria began as she finished her story, turned off her candle right away.

150
00:11:52.639 --> 00:11:56.879
Marta did I had a great time. When my turn came to tell,

151
00:11:56.919 --> 00:12:01.440
my three accounts were also without any
grace. He was not the ideal person

152
00:12:01.480 --> 00:12:05.960
to invent the issue was having fun
and it was being accomplished. The bad

153
00:12:07.000 --> 00:12:11.000
thing was when Paco took his turn. He took a candle in his hands

154
00:12:11.000 --> 00:12:16.480
and began to tell a story that
I found interesting because he started talking about

155
00:12:16.600 --> 00:12:20.360
someone who lived in his house.
The tufo we noticed when we entered was

156
00:12:20.440 --> 00:12:24.679
not about moisture or some decomposed pipe. It was the natural smell of evil,

157
00:12:26.600 --> 00:12:30.360
because, as I lived in the
underworld, it was as normal as

158
00:12:30.480 --> 00:12:35.360
that smell. Putrefaction. It was
also necessary to take into account that the

159
00:12:35.519 --> 00:12:41.200
corpses, as they entered the process
of decomposition. The smell they were emitting

160
00:12:41.279 --> 00:12:46.759
was most unpleasant. I wanted to
interrupt Paco, but he raised his left

161
00:12:46.879 --> 00:12:50.759
hand to tell me to stop me. It was his turn. I didn

162
00:12:50.799 --> 00:12:56.080
' t speak anymore, although I
felt that he was going too far,

163
00:12:56.240 --> 00:13:00.159
because seeing the faces of Gloria and
Marta were really scared. Like me.

164
00:13:00.679 --> 00:13:05.399
Paco continued to say that the evil
being who was living in his house needed

165
00:13:05.399 --> 00:13:11.759
a body to live in, because
he was ethereal, like a dark shadow

166
00:13:11.799 --> 00:13:16.080
floating and that as he left at
night, he was confused with the darkness,

167
00:13:16.600 --> 00:13:22.080
but wandered all night long waiting for
the right time and the ideal body

168
00:13:22.120 --> 00:13:24.240
looked at the clock and began to
sound an alarm from his house. He

169
00:13:24.360 --> 00:13:28.840
got up to pay for it.
Then he turned off the last candle.

170
00:13:28.360 --> 00:13:33.519
He said it' s only a
matter of waiting, because the portal of

171
00:13:33.639 --> 00:13:37.399
the spirits has been opened with that
of the living. The time has come

172
00:13:37.159 --> 00:13:43.360
as predicted. We began to hear
as if inside the house were many horses

173
00:13:43.399 --> 00:13:46.080
running they would hear each other.
When they came into the living room.

174
00:13:46.600 --> 00:13:52.360
My friends and I got up quickly. We had the feeling that it was

175
00:13:52.600 --> 00:13:56.919
actually a group of horses or people. Coming in, I turned to see

176
00:13:58.000 --> 00:14:01.120
them They were just as scared as
I was. He smiled pleased. His

177
00:14:01.200 --> 00:14:07.000
gaze became evil and penetrating. He
raised his arms saying the time had come.

178
00:14:07.600 --> 00:14:11.720
Now it was only necessary to feed
on many souls. I yelled at

179
00:14:11.799 --> 00:14:16.480
him that it wasn' t fun. I had to stop that It wasn

180
00:14:16.559 --> 00:14:20.879
' t a game anymore. We' d better get out of here We

181
00:14:20.879 --> 00:14:24.720
' d all get up and go
to the exit, but the door suddenly

182
00:14:24.720 --> 00:14:26.559
closed. I wanted to open it
and I couldn' t. My friends

183
00:14:26.600 --> 00:14:33.000
tried too without getting it. I
kept yelling at Paco, but he ignored

184
00:14:33.120 --> 00:14:37.000
my annoyance. The door couldn'
t be opened. I ran across the

185
00:14:37.120 --> 00:14:41.720
house to find a window or a
back door to get out of that horrible

186
00:14:41.799 --> 00:14:48.799
place, but all the efforts I
made were in vain. I grabbed a

187
00:14:48.000 --> 00:14:52.639
chair and threw it into a window, which I could break. The crystals

188
00:14:52.759 --> 00:15:00.000
flew everywhere. I was going to
jump when I remembered my friends behind me

189
00:15:00.120 --> 00:15:03.679
came marta, but Gloria wasn'
t marta. He ran off and I

190
00:15:03.720 --> 00:15:07.919
came back for Gloria. It was
the worst moment of my life. I

191
00:15:09.000 --> 00:15:13.200
saw Gloria stuck on the floor a
whole being in black. She kept her

192
00:15:13.240 --> 00:15:18.759
mouth open, while she seemed to
have some kind of white smoke coming out

193
00:15:20.279 --> 00:15:24.039
of her, while she kept her
eyes looking away. I wanted to help

194
00:15:24.039 --> 00:15:28.039
her again, but what could I
do? I was so scared to do

195
00:15:28.159 --> 00:15:33.000
it, and I jumped the window
out. Marta was expecting me. She

196
00:15:33.039 --> 00:15:37.919
was rushing me out right away.
Until I was outside, I could sense

197
00:15:37.960 --> 00:15:41.600
that I could already breathe, because
I felt the air clean. I no

198
00:15:41.639 --> 00:15:46.360
longer felt suffocated and lacking oxygen.
I looked into the house. I couldn

199
00:15:46.440 --> 00:15:52.159
' t be there anymore. When
I saw Paco open the door, Marta

200
00:15:52.240 --> 00:15:56.639
and I ran away, I thought
of Gloria' s fate, but I

201
00:15:56.720 --> 00:16:00.240
was so afraid that she wouldn'
t allow me to reason without talking anything.

202
00:16:00.399 --> 00:16:04.000
We got home quickly, but my
parents weren' t there. I

203
00:16:04.080 --> 00:16:10.759
could only distinguish music at full volume
in my brothers' room. Without hesitation,

204
00:16:11.039 --> 00:16:17.480
I went to the backyard Marta was
following me through the door. I

205
00:16:17.480 --> 00:16:19.879
went into my grandmother' s house. I yelled at him desperate. My

206
00:16:19.879 --> 00:16:25.120
grandmother came out of the kitchen with
a rosary in her hands. He asked

207
00:16:25.279 --> 00:16:27.960
me what that scandal was that day. It was to be at peace and

208
00:16:29.000 --> 00:16:33.440
in complete prayer. I told him
I did something very wrong. My grandmother

209
00:16:33.559 --> 00:16:38.320
let go of her rosary holding him
with one hand and then holding my arm

210
00:16:38.399 --> 00:16:41.840
and putting me in the kitchen without
saying anything. He closed the windows,

211
00:16:42.240 --> 00:16:47.240
the doors, checked the whole house. When she was sure everything was closed,

212
00:16:47.720 --> 00:16:52.279
she sat me in a dining room
chair and my friend. My grandmother

213
00:16:52.320 --> 00:16:56.360
also told us to tell her what
had happened, because something very dark was

214
00:16:56.399 --> 00:17:03.359
following us bring such an unpleasant smell
and that was only evil. Without omitting

215
00:17:03.440 --> 00:17:07.759
any details, I told my grandmother
everything. I expected a complaint from him

216
00:17:08.279 --> 00:17:12.400
or a scolding, but I didn' t. My grandmother behaved well as

217
00:17:14.039 --> 00:17:17.480
she was very much a believer that
it was the time of the devil.

218
00:17:18.039 --> 00:17:22.200
He was scared, too. He
went into his room and pulled out a

219
00:17:22.279 --> 00:17:26.319
bottle of holy water, which also
had several blessed Christs. He gave one

220
00:17:26.400 --> 00:17:30.240
to me and one to my friend. He asked me to go for the

221
00:17:30.359 --> 00:17:36.359
blessed bouquet he bought me and took
his. He put them in a pot

222
00:17:36.400 --> 00:17:42.279
and started burning them as they became
ashes. She was praying the holy Rosary,

223
00:17:42.599 --> 00:17:48.240
when the palms were completely burned,
she collected the ashes in a small

224
00:17:48.440 --> 00:17:52.839
jar and divided it into three parts. She gave one to me, one

225
00:17:52.920 --> 00:17:56.200
to Marta, and the other to
her. He told us that it was

226
00:17:56.240 --> 00:18:00.960
ideal for a priest to come and
help us to Paco' s house to

227
00:18:02.000 --> 00:18:04.960
help my friend Gloria. But that
day, especially, the priests were busy.

228
00:18:07.720 --> 00:18:11.359
I wouldn' t bother any of
them. He grabbed his rosary along

229
00:18:11.440 --> 00:18:15.599
with the blessed palm ash and we
went to Paco' s house. As

230
00:18:15.640 --> 00:18:21.079
we approach the house. My grandmother
squeezed the beads of her rosary harder.

231
00:18:22.319 --> 00:18:26.480
All he saw was that he moved
his lips and kept praying non- stop.

232
00:18:26.839 --> 00:18:30.240
When we arrived at the house,
both Marta and I did not want

233
00:18:30.240 --> 00:18:36.279
to enter. We stood in the
garage of the house, but my grandmother,

234
00:18:36.680 --> 00:18:41.400
very brave, stepped forward and opened
the door immediately covered her nose with

235
00:18:41.440 --> 00:18:47.519
her hand. The tufo was getting
worse and worse. We went in behind

236
00:18:47.519 --> 00:18:51.799
her. My grandmother was our shield. We could see Gloria' s body

237
00:18:51.799 --> 00:18:56.000
in the living room I was afraid, a great fear. I was afraid

238
00:18:56.039 --> 00:19:00.559
she wasn' t alive anymore.
My midway grandmother put her hand on her

239
00:19:00.599 --> 00:19:06.160
neck. He turned us around to
see us nodding. I felt the soul

240
00:19:06.240 --> 00:19:11.279
returning to my body. Gloria seemed
only fainted, but her face was pale

241
00:19:11.319 --> 00:19:17.039
without color. My grandmother did what
she did was put Gloria on a cross

242
00:19:17.119 --> 00:19:19.880
with the palm ash. He put
it on his chest and on each of

243
00:19:19.880 --> 00:19:25.039
the wrists of his hand. I
don' t know if it was a

244
00:19:25.119 --> 00:19:30.359
coincidence, but I don' t
think it was because Gloria got her breath

245
00:19:30.359 --> 00:19:32.839
back She woke up very scared and
turned around. Between Marta and me,

246
00:19:33.240 --> 00:19:37.960
we helped her get up. We
held her between our shoulders and walked carefully.

247
00:19:38.920 --> 00:19:42.119
We were just on our way out. When we hear a very loud

248
00:19:42.240 --> 00:19:45.920
noise in the upper part of the
house. It was like someone was really

249
00:19:47.000 --> 00:19:52.839
upset. We got out as fast
as we could, but my grandmother stayed

250
00:19:52.839 --> 00:19:57.440
behind. When I saw her I
returned for her again I began to hear

251
00:19:57.519 --> 00:20:03.079
the sound of a caboose gallop.
The door of the entrance opened wide and

252
00:20:03.119 --> 00:20:07.839
a gust of iced air enveloped us
I feared the worst, but my grandmother

253
00:20:08.079 --> 00:20:14.960
kept praying at all times. When
the wind stopped, I was tightly embraced

254
00:20:15.079 --> 00:20:18.440
by her. I saw Gloria and
Marta with the fear reflected on her face.

255
00:20:19.599 --> 00:20:23.759
We left the Paco house without turning
back, but there was something bothering

256
00:20:23.839 --> 00:20:30.559
me. I had a feeling someone
was coming after us. Every moment I

257
00:20:30.839 --> 00:20:37.680
turned back, but my grandmother asked
me not to. He was right behind

258
00:20:37.720 --> 00:20:44.400
us. My grandmother was right.
We felt again when that gust of cold

259
00:20:44.519 --> 00:20:49.039
wind passed us through in its path. Screams, laments, disturbing voices were

260
00:20:49.119 --> 00:20:53.720
heard. When we arrived at my
grandmother' s house, we laid Gloria

261
00:20:53.759 --> 00:20:57.839
down on the couch in the living
room. She looked emaciated, absent disoriented.

262
00:21:00.559 --> 00:21:03.079
He didn' t seem to remember
what happened. For her part,

263
00:21:03.480 --> 00:21:08.720
Martha trembled with fear at that time, remembering the game of the Red Book

264
00:21:08.799 --> 00:21:14.799
and crying. I asked him to
calm down because he couldn' t understand

265
00:21:14.839 --> 00:21:18.119
what he was saying. Marta told
me that she had to go see her

266
00:21:18.160 --> 00:21:22.839
family and she left My grandmother was
still assisting Gloria, who slowly began to

267
00:21:23.119 --> 00:21:27.680
feel. It' s better when
my friend got startled. He said he

268
00:21:27.799 --> 00:21:33.400
saw it. He could see the
devil' s face was dark- eyed,

269
00:21:33.559 --> 00:21:38.599
black- eyed. Gloria wanted to
keep talking, but she opened her

270
00:21:38.759 --> 00:21:44.039
eyes too wide and stared at the
wall. My grandmother and I turned around

271
00:21:44.119 --> 00:21:48.319
without seeing anything, but we did
perceive someone' s presence, because the

272
00:21:48.559 --> 00:21:52.400
atmosphere began to get cold. My
grandmother, with her great faith, kept

273
00:21:52.480 --> 00:21:57.799
praying and putting holy water throughout the
room. The temperature. It gradually became

274
00:21:59.000 --> 00:22:03.839
normalized. Gloria couldn' t handle
it. She began to cry as her

275
00:22:03.920 --> 00:22:07.279
whole body shivered, but my grandmother, confidently, told her not to worry.

276
00:22:10.599 --> 00:22:14.960
That day. The demon would be
loose, but soon he would return

277
00:22:15.000 --> 00:22:19.359
to the place he belonged to,
although we had to keep praying all the

278
00:22:19.359 --> 00:22:22.920
time. He went to his room
and took out an image of Saint Benedict.

279
00:22:23.440 --> 00:22:29.119
In turn he gave a rosary to
each of us saying that they were

280
00:22:29.759 --> 00:22:33.880
blessed and that before the power of
prayer the devil was moving away. I

281
00:22:33.880 --> 00:22:37.359
took the rosary. I didn'
t even remember the prayers anymore. My

282
00:22:37.400 --> 00:22:41.799
grandmother started first, my friend and
I started later. That' s how

283
00:22:41.920 --> 00:22:45.759
we were for an hour, but
we were already tired. I told my

284
00:22:45.799 --> 00:22:49.279
grandmother I wanted to go to rest. Gloria also said the same thing.

285
00:22:49.880 --> 00:22:55.799
My grandmother approached us. He told
us the demon was still loose that night.

286
00:22:56.279 --> 00:23:00.599
It was necessary to be in constant
prayer. If we couldn' t

287
00:23:00.599 --> 00:23:04.200
do it, she would, but
we had to stay close. It was

288
00:23:04.319 --> 00:23:08.920
the only way he had to protect
us in another way. I couldn'

289
00:23:10.039 --> 00:23:14.319
t make sure of anything. Without
much thought. Gloria phoned her parents.

290
00:23:15.519 --> 00:23:18.319
He asked them permission to sleep with
me. They were a little strange,

291
00:23:18.440 --> 00:23:23.920
but they agreed. That night we
stayed at my grandmother' s for a

292
00:23:25.440 --> 00:23:30.039
while. He woke up and listened
to his prayers. I could see the

293
00:23:30.160 --> 00:23:34.440
power of his beliefs and the great
fervor he professed. I got up to

294
00:23:34.559 --> 00:23:40.160
thank you for everything I did.
For us who by our imprudence and immaturity

295
00:23:40.400 --> 00:23:44.279
open for such. It was the
first time I believed in everything my grandmother

296
00:23:44.359 --> 00:23:49.240
had told me, because a few
minutes later I heard as if many people

297
00:23:49.240 --> 00:23:55.400
were running in the street, there
was also a loud murmur. I snuck

298
00:23:55.400 --> 00:23:59.160
out the window without getting to see
anyone. My grandmother realized she was up

299
00:23:59.240 --> 00:24:04.480
and came up with me. He
told me they were the demons who were

300
00:24:04.480 --> 00:24:08.640
loose, as well as the souls
of his followers. Outside. A terrible

301
00:24:08.680 --> 00:24:15.200
noise was still being heard. It
was scary to imagine that it was evil

302
00:24:15.240 --> 00:24:18.440
spirits around us. My grandmother told
me that it was better for me to

303
00:24:18.480 --> 00:24:22.759
stay away from the window, because
if any of them realized my presence,

304
00:24:22.960 --> 00:24:29.319
I could try to get into my
body immediately I stopped seeing the street for

305
00:24:29.400 --> 00:24:33.279
a while. I stayed praying with
my grandmother until I got sleepy. I

306
00:24:33.400 --> 00:24:37.599
went to bed again, but before
I went to bed, I hugged her

307
00:24:37.640 --> 00:24:42.480
for everything she was helping us.
The next day, Gloria went home in

308
00:24:42.519 --> 00:24:48.240
the morning, my grandmother and I
accompanied her. After leaving her with her

309
00:24:48.319 --> 00:24:52.519
family. My grandmother asked me to
tell you what we had done. I

310
00:24:52.559 --> 00:24:56.279
gave him all the details. I
told him Paco was a very strange boy.

311
00:24:56.319 --> 00:25:00.039
Yesterday I realized that I knew very
little about him and his family,

312
00:25:00.279 --> 00:25:06.960
although I could never see anyone of
them. We went back to see the

313
00:25:07.000 --> 00:25:10.839
house. Being in front of the
house, it gave me the look of

314
00:25:10.880 --> 00:25:15.480
being abandoned. My grandmother thought the
same thing. I tried to get in,

315
00:25:15.640 --> 00:25:18.240
but she wouldn' t let me. He told me the place was

316
00:25:18.359 --> 00:25:22.279
full of evil energies. The best
thing was to get away right away.

317
00:25:22.359 --> 00:25:27.000
From there, next to my grandmother
I felt safe and protected. I asked

318
00:25:27.039 --> 00:25:30.839
her to stay with her all day. He opened the palm of my hand

319
00:25:30.920 --> 00:25:37.119
and put the rosary on it telling
me not to separate from it. He

320
00:25:37.160 --> 00:25:41.519
was my protector. Just like prayer. My grandmother was going to tell me

321
00:25:41.799 --> 00:25:48.079
to stay away from Paco, but
before I finished I told her that I

322
00:25:48.200 --> 00:25:52.160
was convinced I wasn' t standing
next to that boy who had evil in

323
00:25:52.160 --> 00:25:55.559
his body. My grandmother interrupted me
to tell me that the first time she

324
00:25:55.680 --> 00:25:59.319
saw him, she noticed a dark
shadow that followed him all the time.

325
00:25:59.359 --> 00:26:03.440
That' s why he told me
that time to stay away from him or

326
00:26:03.480 --> 00:26:07.880
that boy brings evil into him or
is about to allow him in. The

327
00:26:07.920 --> 00:26:12.039
best thing was not to make any
contact with him at school. When I

328
00:26:12.119 --> 00:26:15.000
saw Paco again, I didn'
t come near him anymore. I just

329
00:26:15.119 --> 00:26:19.720
greeted him from a distance. My
grandmother said we were very lucky that a

330
00:26:21.039 --> 00:26:26.720
demon didn' t hurt us.
Both Marta and Gloria were fine. After

331
00:26:26.759 --> 00:26:32.440
leaving school, we passed by Paco' s house curiously. All three of

332
00:26:32.559 --> 00:26:37.079
us agreed that the house seemed abandoned, was in total neglect. Perhaps it

333
00:26:37.119 --> 00:26:42.200
wasn' t even Paco' s
real home, although we were also afraid

334
00:26:42.279 --> 00:26:48.319
that if it was his home and
he would have hurt his parents because inside

335
00:26:48.400 --> 00:26:53.240
there was a smell of rot,
we moved away from the place with the

336
00:26:53.359 --> 00:27:00.200
idea of never coming back to the
next time Paco changed school and we never

337
00:27:00.279 --> 00:27:03.519
heard from him again. It was
a great respite for all three of us

338
00:27:03.720 --> 00:27:11.240
because of the experience I experienced I
could realize that it was true what my

339
00:27:11.240 --> 00:27:14.279
grandmother said on Holy Friday. It
was dangerous, because at three o'

340
00:27:14.400 --> 00:27:19.000
clock in the afternoon the glory is
closed and the devil is loose. Story
