00:00:05.080 --> 00:00:10.919
The ghost of the urn. I
went to live in the center of the
2
00:00:11.000 --> 00:00:15.679
country so I could do my degree. Fortunately, I was able to enter
3
00:00:15.679 --> 00:00:18.679
the university I wanted. I just
had one problem. My parents didn'
4
00:00:18.719 --> 00:00:22.280
t support me with the decision and
I wasn' t surprised. They didn
5
00:00:22.320 --> 00:00:25.719
' t want me to leave the
house until I got married. Besides,
6
00:00:25.800 --> 00:00:29.480
I was born in a very violent
village. Gun detonations are heard here all
7
00:00:29.519 --> 00:00:33.840
the time. That' s why. I understand that they didn' t
8
00:00:33.880 --> 00:00:37.920
want me to leave the state,
but it was my dream and I couldn
9
00:00:37.920 --> 00:00:40.759
' t let him escape. That' s why I ended up in a
10
00:00:40.799 --> 00:00:45.200
place that belonged to someone. When
I entered the university it was for the
11
00:00:45.280 --> 00:00:49.200
cycle that began in January. I
got ready to go with the little money
12
00:00:49.320 --> 00:00:53.320
I made on a farm I worked
on for a while. My parents gave
13
00:00:53.359 --> 00:00:59.079
me nothing or good luck, because
they were upset in the place where I
14
00:00:59.200 --> 00:01:03.719
was going to live. I was
waiting for Lucero, a girl who had
15
00:01:03.960 --> 00:01:07.640
spent three semesters in the same career
as me and who had contacted through the
16
00:01:07.680 --> 00:01:12.760
group where all the people in the
division to which my career belongs, told
17
00:01:12.840 --> 00:01:18.319
me that in the student house where
she lived, she had taken a room
18
00:01:18.359 --> 00:01:22.879
and that I could stay in it. That' s right, I contacted
19
00:01:22.879 --> 00:01:26.000
the owner, gave her my references
and Lucero welcomed me to the house.
20
00:01:26.599 --> 00:01:29.920
That' s the nicest thing anyone' s ever done that doesn' t
21
00:01:29.959 --> 00:01:32.680
know me with the good luck I
thought I' d had. Upon arriving
22
00:01:32.680 --> 00:01:36.640
at the house where we were all
going to be, I ran into another
23
00:01:36.680 --> 00:01:41.439
girl who was arriving who would occupy
the same room. The situation became confusing
24
00:01:41.519 --> 00:01:45.400
for the owner of the house and
admitted two girls at the same time,
25
00:01:46.280 --> 00:01:51.239
even though there was only one room
available. It had become uncomfortable my arrival
26
00:01:51.680 --> 00:01:56.040
to feel completely welcomed by this great
city, by Lucero and by my new
27
00:01:56.120 --> 00:02:00.079
life. Now I had to wait
for the owner' s resolution to find
28
00:02:00.200 --> 00:02:02.920
out if she would have a home
or not. In the end, the
29
00:02:02.959 --> 00:02:07.239
resolution was not what I expected.
Apparently, the house had a room on
30
00:02:07.280 --> 00:02:12.120
the roof where another space was to
be provided for someone else, but the
31
00:02:12.120 --> 00:02:15.719
adaptation of the place had not begun. That room was the one she called
32
00:02:15.759 --> 00:02:21.120
the room for the Tiliches. It
was just above the area where the four
33
00:02:21.199 --> 00:02:24.919
rooms were for the students. Since
the house was two floors, I was
34
00:02:25.039 --> 00:02:29.960
going to end up on the third
floor there was only one detail. The
35
00:02:30.000 --> 00:02:34.719
room could only be accessed by means
of a metal staircase that had to be
36
00:02:34.759 --> 00:02:38.479
recharged on the edge of the ceiling, where the laundry room was. There
37
00:02:38.560 --> 00:02:43.360
was the roofless space through which the
sun entered to dry the clothes on the
38
00:02:43.400 --> 00:02:47.439
clothesline. When I told her I
was interested in seeing the room, that
39
00:02:47.479 --> 00:02:52.240
one went out looking for the neighbor, who lent us the ladder so we
40
00:02:52.240 --> 00:02:55.800
could do that. Since the lady
could no longer climb stairs like that without
41
00:02:57.120 --> 00:02:59.639
handrails because she was dangerous because of
her age. I stare that r urra
42
00:02:59.719 --> 00:03:04.199
told me that only a few times
had they gone up to that place.
43
00:03:04.759 --> 00:03:08.759
They had even thought it was a
good idea to make a small terrace for
44
00:03:08.800 --> 00:03:13.400
parties, but the floor was full
of paint and dirt stains. I didn
45
00:03:13.520 --> 00:03:17.520
' t have a bathroom on the
top was hard to get up and there
46
00:03:17.520 --> 00:03:21.159
was just that little room where the
lady' s stuff was kept. When
47
00:03:21.280 --> 00:03:24.280
I lived there, I thought luck
wasn' t so bad, but seeing
48
00:03:24.319 --> 00:03:29.960
the little room without ventilation, I
wanted to run away, but I didn
49
00:03:30.039 --> 00:03:32.240
' t know where I didn'
t even have anyone around to go back
50
00:03:32.240 --> 00:03:35.319
to my parents. It wasn'
t an option for me either. In
51
00:03:35.360 --> 00:03:37.879
spite of everything, I took the
place. I told the owner that it
52
00:03:37.919 --> 00:03:40.520
was okay for me and she lowered
the rent a little bit that week,
53
00:03:42.360 --> 00:03:46.919
before starting the classes I had thought
of walking around the city so I could
54
00:03:46.039 --> 00:03:51.680
learn how to move, I was
going to spend it cleaning up and settling
55
00:03:51.719 --> 00:03:54.319
things so I could live. That' s where I started cleaning alone.
56
00:03:54.360 --> 00:03:59.479
The next day, having arrived the
day before, Sunday afternoon, I woke
57
00:03:59.479 --> 00:04:03.639
up at six as usual, I
climbed up with some plastic bags to throw
58
00:04:03.719 --> 00:04:10.960
away most of the garbage that had
been kept. I went up there broom
59
00:04:11.039 --> 00:04:14.840
picker and a boat with water in
case I needed it. That roof was
60
00:04:14.919 --> 00:04:19.240
totally latched and small around. I
could only see the other houses set up.
61
00:04:19.399 --> 00:04:24.920
Covering the view, I opened the
door with the key that the lady
62
00:04:24.959 --> 00:04:30.079
gave me warning me that I had
to always leave the door locked when I
63
00:04:30.120 --> 00:04:32.000
wasn' t using my space.
I opened the room again. Again I
64
00:04:32.079 --> 00:04:36.759
felt that the dust went deep into
my lungs and I began to cough too
65
00:04:36.839 --> 00:04:43.360
much. There were old furniture like
those used to store crockery. There was
66
00:04:43.480 --> 00:04:46.959
a base of a bed standing.
There were also about fifteen cartons. I
67
00:04:46.959 --> 00:04:51.720
started cleaning without calling a star.
I also didn' t wait for the
68
00:04:51.800 --> 00:04:55.480
owner' s nephew who said he
could help me lower the heavy stuff.
69
00:04:55.920 --> 00:05:00.240
Honestly, I' d rather do
it as soon as possible. Eating I
70
00:05:00.279 --> 00:05:04.319
started taking out the boxes. I
dropped some very old toys. They were
71
00:05:04.399 --> 00:05:09.800
also filled with dust a lot of
cut cloths with which I filled myself with
72
00:05:09.920 --> 00:05:14.399
dirt to my mouth. I was
feeling disappointed. I didn' t see
73
00:05:14.439 --> 00:05:17.000
a way to use that space.
When I had pulled out the boxes and
74
00:05:17.000 --> 00:05:21.279
other trash, I realized there was
some kind of weird shadow in the background
75
00:05:21.399 --> 00:05:27.040
near an ironing board. I saw
that there was a window covered with black
76
00:05:27.079 --> 00:05:30.240
bags up above a wall attached to
the ceiling but I didn' t know
77
00:05:30.240 --> 00:05:33.920
how to remove it. I didn' t have a half- light staircase
78
00:05:34.000 --> 00:05:38.720
just lit with the door open.
I kept seeing that a dense shadow was
79
00:05:38.759 --> 00:05:43.240
behind that ironing board, but I
also managed to see that there was one
80
00:05:43.279 --> 00:05:47.439
behind a damaged bookseller full of bags
and garbage. It caught my attention because
81
00:05:47.560 --> 00:05:53.000
I couldn' t find shape in
that bag. Little by little I cleared
82
00:05:53.040 --> 00:05:58.199
the space, the boxes were stacked
outside and I was close to reaching the
83
00:05:58.240 --> 00:06:03.279
wall of the background. When I
heard Lucero yell at me, my cell
84
00:06:03.519 --> 00:06:05.879
phone had been ringing and I hadn' t noticed that I was silent.
85
00:06:06.560 --> 00:06:12.040
I walked out of the room to
look at the stairs and told her I
86
00:06:12.160 --> 00:06:16.079
had started a while ago and she
was sorry for not fulfilling her promise to
87
00:06:16.079 --> 00:06:19.360
help me clean up. He accompanied
me to finish settling things in the nephew
88
00:06:19.360 --> 00:06:24.800
' s arrival to bring everything down. I swear it didn' t take
89
00:06:24.879 --> 00:06:29.920
us five minutes between that conversation and
what it took Lucero to come up with
90
00:06:29.959 --> 00:06:33.240
me to go to the room.
That' s why it was extremely rare
91
00:06:33.360 --> 00:06:38.680
to realize that everything I' d
swept away had been useless. There was
92
00:06:38.759 --> 00:06:42.399
a lot of land inside the room. I figured it might have been a
93
00:06:42.439 --> 00:06:46.480
very strong wind that put everything this
dirty, but when I came in I
94
00:06:46.639 --> 00:06:50.319
got entangled in a huge web.
Lucero started screaming. As I became muddy
95
00:06:50.399 --> 00:06:56.000
with cobweb, I also tried to
find out where that cobweb came from,
96
00:06:56.360 --> 00:07:00.879
because I had not seen anything like
it when I opened the room or the
97
00:07:00.920 --> 00:07:04.160
day before because of the broom with
the intention of cleaning the cobwebs, but
98
00:07:04.199 --> 00:07:06.600
it was not in the place where
I had left it. I didn'
99
00:07:06.680 --> 00:07:12.040
t know if I had left it
there, but I also vaguely remembered that
100
00:07:12.120 --> 00:07:15.040
I had put it next to the
old boxes. Lucero had gone out screaming.
101
00:07:15.720 --> 00:07:19.439
He told me he didn' t
like spiders at all. She found
102
00:07:19.480 --> 00:07:24.639
the broom because she saw it lying
in the middle of the garbage bags she
103
00:07:24.680 --> 00:07:29.360
had left next to where the ladder
was to go down. We started cleaning
104
00:07:29.759 --> 00:07:32.720
up Lucero also caught his attention that
shadow that was to the bottom of the
105
00:07:32.800 --> 00:07:39.600
room. So we agreed to remove
everything as soon as possible. When we
106
00:07:39.600 --> 00:07:45.120
finally realized it was that, we
were disappointed. It was just a cloth
107
00:07:45.240 --> 00:07:49.600
attached to the wall a fabric of
black velvet with flowers that I had not
108
00:07:49.680 --> 00:07:55.199
been able to appreciate well until between
the two we removed the black bags from
109
00:07:55.240 --> 00:08:00.000
the window in order to see better, because the room lacked focus of light
110
00:08:00.040 --> 00:08:03.360
both of us were seeing the velvet
fabric laughing. It was clear that it
111
00:08:03.439 --> 00:08:07.120
was glued with some kind of staples
to the wall it didn' t look
112
00:08:07.399 --> 00:08:11.360
like they did, but I was
wrapping something I touched the cloth with the
113
00:08:11.360 --> 00:08:13.879
broom and this one didn' t
fall, so I decided to pull it
114
00:08:13.879 --> 00:08:16.720
a little bit, but nothing happened
either. Lucero suggested that we remove all
115
00:08:16.839 --> 00:08:22.920
the furniture by pushing them to the
sides by the end, when we finished
116
00:08:22.040 --> 00:08:26.199
cleaning the cloth. We went on
a little longer, but one heaviness took
117
00:08:26.240 --> 00:08:30.879
over both of us. It felt
like we' d been cleaning for hours,
118
00:08:31.240 --> 00:08:35.519
but barely an hour had passed.
A girl named Daniela, who also
119
00:08:35.639 --> 00:08:39.159
lived there, went up to see
the novelty of that room. He didn
120
00:08:39.240 --> 00:08:43.000
' t pay attention to me.
He didn' t seem interested in knowing
121
00:08:43.039 --> 00:08:48.399
me, but he talked a lot
to the star I heard that the owner
122
00:08:48.480 --> 00:08:52.440
had called to warn him that his
nephew had had a problem with one of
123
00:08:52.440 --> 00:08:56.600
the tires in his truck. When
I heard that, I turned around to
124
00:08:56.720 --> 00:09:00.519
ask what happened. It wasn'
t possible for that to happen now.
125
00:09:00.639 --> 00:09:03.279
I was urged to have a safe
place to live before going to school.
126
00:09:05.639 --> 00:09:09.159
At the time, I think I
pulled my clothes or something. One of
127
00:09:09.200 --> 00:09:15.200
the banks of books stacked on the
ground fell all making an intense noise,
128
00:09:15.679 --> 00:09:20.360
a black dust, rose all three
we began to cough. When I could
129
00:09:20.399 --> 00:09:24.279
open my eyes, I saw that
I was stepping on one of the books
130
00:09:24.360 --> 00:09:28.360
and realized that they were not normal
books, they were photo albums. I
131
00:09:28.440 --> 00:09:33.159
was stepping on one of the photographs
that had fallen was the photo of a
132
00:09:33.279 --> 00:09:35.559
little girl. I don' t
think I was over six years old.
133
00:09:37.000 --> 00:09:41.559
The picture was black and white.
In it that girl bit a bread holding
134
00:09:41.639 --> 00:09:45.799
it with one hand looking at the
camera, while holding a jar of mud
135
00:09:45.799 --> 00:09:48.200
in the other hand. He wore
braids and a suit that looked winter.
136
00:09:50.200 --> 00:09:52.600
I took my foot off right away. After that, a gnash was heard.
137
00:09:54.159 --> 00:09:58.360
All three of us were quiet.
We were hoping to know what that
138
00:09:58.399 --> 00:10:01.320
was, but we never heard the
noise again. I took the picture.
139
00:10:01.840 --> 00:10:05.200
Daniela came up to grab the photo
album and started seeing them with Lucero.
140
00:10:07.360 --> 00:10:09.960
I looked again at the photo I
stepped on. The girl seemed to stare
141
00:10:11.000 --> 00:10:13.879
at the camera, but it was
such an intense look that you could feel
142
00:10:13.960 --> 00:10:18.840
like she was looking at you.
I checked the back and saw the name
143
00:10:18.879 --> 00:10:24.840
Juana. February of seventy- two. The gnashing was heard again. He
144
00:10:24.919 --> 00:10:28.679
took me by surprise and I got
scared. And then the door of the
145
00:10:28.679 --> 00:10:33.720
room closed violently. All three of
us ran to the exit, but we
146
00:10:33.759 --> 00:10:37.799
couldn' t open the door.
We felt that she was adored. It
147
00:10:37.879 --> 00:10:41.559
occurred to Lucero that we could push
the door at three o' clock to
148
00:10:41.559 --> 00:10:46.039
open it. I told her it
was a good idea, but Daniela asked
149
00:10:46.120 --> 00:10:48.960
me about the key right away.
I put my hand in my pants,
150
00:10:50.120 --> 00:10:54.360
but there was no key. It
made us very worried and scared to be
151
00:10:54.440 --> 00:10:58.919
there and suddenly we heard how something
started to spin, like when the wood
152
00:11:00.080 --> 00:11:03.399
thunders when the temperature changes. When
I stopped talking, we kept listening to
153
00:11:03.440 --> 00:11:09.600
the sound and I started feeling nervous
because it wasn' t normal. Lucero
154
00:11:09.639 --> 00:11:13.720
started looking for something to fall.
Daniela told us the nephew was coming at
155
00:11:13.720 --> 00:11:18.799
some point in the afternoon when he
could fix the flat tire. So it
156
00:11:18.879 --> 00:11:24.679
was better to calm down because we
were listening to things. We didn'
157
00:11:24.759 --> 00:11:26.840
t have a cell phone. We
thought it was a matter of time before
158
00:11:26.919 --> 00:11:31.279
the other two girls or the owner' s nephew came looking for us.
159
00:11:31.759 --> 00:11:35.519
Daniela sat down. The sounds surrounded
us, but she seemed to ignore everything.
160
00:11:35.600 --> 00:11:39.720
Looking at the photo albums I had
taken before. Lucero came up to
161
00:11:39.799 --> 00:11:43.919
me and told me that he felt
like they were seeing us I looked everywhere.
162
00:11:45.320 --> 00:11:48.480
I told him we had to find
out what to do for a while,
163
00:11:48.919 --> 00:11:50.679
and I moved the bumps that were
left in the bookseller at the bottom.
164
00:11:52.399 --> 00:11:56.120
They slipped some vanities magazines. I
started to lift them, but a
165
00:11:56.120 --> 00:12:01.879
series of large spiders with thin legs
ran in I Among them I released everything.
166
00:12:01.000 --> 00:12:05.519
Lucero started panicking. Daniela was ignoring
us, but what she couldn'
167
00:12:05.639 --> 00:12:09.399
t ignore was that, under a
small bureau that was in between some wrapped
168
00:12:09.480 --> 00:12:15.519
plastic bags, she rolled out a
ball. My body froze and I could
169
00:12:15.600 --> 00:12:20.240
feel as if my soul had slipped
out. It didn' t make sense
170
00:12:20.320 --> 00:12:24.240
how that ball turned up. The
worst thing is that she had rolled to
171
00:12:24.279 --> 00:12:28.480
the feet of a star and she
got very pale and I tried to distract
172
00:12:28.519 --> 00:12:31.519
her from that by telling her that
she was a ghost wanting to play with
173
00:12:31.519 --> 00:12:35.440
her. I said it as a
joke, but Daniela told me scared that
174
00:12:35.519 --> 00:12:39.960
you wouldn' t play with those
things. Lucero contained tears pressing his lips.
175
00:12:39.879 --> 00:12:45.440
I was worried he was going to
faint or something because the atmosphere felt
176
00:12:45.519 --> 00:12:48.679
too heavy. I went to hug
her and kicked the ball a little bit
177
00:12:48.679 --> 00:12:54.080
in the distance, without the intention
of putting it somewhere specific, but I
178
00:12:54.120 --> 00:12:58.799
stood up every beautiful one of the
body when I saw that the ball seemed
179
00:12:58.840 --> 00:13:03.159
to spin touched by something invisible to
return to our feet. Daniela got up
180
00:13:03.200 --> 00:13:07.240
from where she was sitting and hugged
us, we didn' t know what
181
00:13:07.240 --> 00:13:09.279
to do. We looked at each
other with terror, we didn' t
182
00:13:09.279 --> 00:13:13.720
talk. I felt that whatever was
throwing the ball at us, I could
183
00:13:13.840 --> 00:13:20.120
hear the star crying in silence,
covering his mouth with one hand. I
184
00:13:20.159 --> 00:13:24.720
approached to try to take the ball
and just hold it in my hand.
185
00:13:24.120 --> 00:13:28.480
Maybe that' s how she'
d stop moving alone. We were facing
186
00:13:28.519 --> 00:13:33.320
something ghostly. So, when I
tried to take the ball to end our
187
00:13:33.320 --> 00:13:37.879
panic, the ball moved itself to
keep it from taking it. I stayed
188
00:13:37.919 --> 00:13:43.159
in the position where I was as
if I had been petrified. I was
189
00:13:43.240 --> 00:13:48.799
trying to figure out what to do, but when I looked at the girls
190
00:13:48.879 --> 00:13:50.080
to find out how they were,
they were both hugged crying in silence.
191
00:13:50.879 --> 00:13:54.559
We couldn' t get out of
there. And now something invisible was in
192
00:13:54.600 --> 00:14:01.200
the room, tormenting us, I
slowly incorporated myself felt bread and to do
193
00:14:01.200 --> 00:14:03.320
something abrupt. I told them it
was time to look to knock the door
194
00:14:03.360 --> 00:14:07.279
down, even if it was a
kick and both nodded with their heads.
195
00:14:07.440 --> 00:14:13.840
I looked around and saw a small
table turned upside down. It was between
196
00:14:13.919 --> 00:14:18.919
paper bags and other garbage. I
thought that might help us stare would cover
197
00:14:20.039 --> 00:14:24.159
his eyes as Daniela told me to
hurry, because she wasn' t going
198
00:14:24.159 --> 00:14:26.480
to get her hands on any of
those things, because something bad was there.
199
00:14:28.279 --> 00:14:31.279
Well, despite the terror, I
had to touch that, even though
200
00:14:31.320 --> 00:14:35.840
I thought the same thing, it
was more my need to get out of
201
00:14:35.879 --> 00:14:39.759
there than the fear I felt for
a lot of garbage. That' s
202
00:14:39.799 --> 00:14:45.440
how I played brave and took the
coffee table. I easily grabbed her by
203
00:14:45.480 --> 00:14:50.279
dropping the bags and newspapers that were
on or around her. I pulled the
204
00:14:50.360 --> 00:14:54.879
table to release her, but I
stopped the star- care cry. I
205
00:14:54.919 --> 00:14:58.600
looked around and about ten or fifteen
spiders maybe more had come down with their
206
00:14:58.679 --> 00:15:03.399
cloths to stay around me. I
screamed. Those spiders weren' t normal.
207
00:15:05.039 --> 00:15:09.519
It was impossible to explain to those
spiders they hadn' t even left.
208
00:15:09.559 --> 00:15:13.720
When I started to move things around, I was moving everywhere, fanning
209
00:15:13.759 --> 00:15:16.960
with the table, and even though
I killed several spiders, I had the
210
00:15:18.039 --> 00:15:22.799
feeling that they were walking between my
legs or arms. I laughed at the
211
00:15:22.840 --> 00:15:26.879
girls and started shaking at the table. Next to them they looked at me
212
00:15:26.919 --> 00:15:31.639
like I was crazy, but at
the same time they yelled at me not
213
00:15:31.639 --> 00:15:33.960
to throw the spiders at them.
Over. Daniela grabbed the table while I
214
00:15:33.960 --> 00:15:39.519
was in hysteria trying to take the
feeling out of those spiders and I say
215
00:15:39.639 --> 00:15:43.559
feeling because I didn' t see
them. But I still felt something moving
216
00:15:43.679 --> 00:15:46.840
through my skin. With a dry
blow, I put aside my struggle against
217
00:15:46.960 --> 00:15:52.440
those invisible beings and watched Daniela knock
on the door with the table. The
218
00:15:52.559 --> 00:15:58.279
third blow. We felt as if
the whole room had trembled and the creaks
219
00:15:58.320 --> 00:16:03.320
increased. Get out of my pants. The photograph of the girl that I
220
00:16:03.360 --> 00:16:07.639
found loose among the photo albums,
I didn' t know how she got
221
00:16:07.639 --> 00:16:12.519
there. The woods thundered the photo
half terror because for a second I saw
222
00:16:12.559 --> 00:16:18.399
as if that girl had blinked.
I don' t know if Daniela saw
223
00:16:18.399 --> 00:16:22.279
that blink too, but she started
screaming like crazy as she hit the door
224
00:16:22.360 --> 00:16:25.919
with the table, until she hurt
her right hand and had to stop.
225
00:16:26.879 --> 00:16:30.360
Lucero wanted to take care of her, but in the middle of the way
226
00:16:30.440 --> 00:16:33.120
he pointed his hand at the bottom
of the room. We looked at where
227
00:16:33.240 --> 00:16:37.799
he was aiming and saw some papers
moving alone from one side to the other.
228
00:16:37.320 --> 00:16:42.000
Some bags were also vibrating, but
what really made me unable to contain
229
00:16:42.039 --> 00:16:47.799
myself from the terror and started asking
for help screaming at every lung, was
230
00:16:47.879 --> 00:16:52.759
to see the magazines that were lying
on the ground alone. As expected,
231
00:16:52.960 --> 00:16:57.120
Lucero fainted from the impression, Daniela
contained it and I took the table with
232
00:16:57.120 --> 00:17:02.679
which I was knocking on the door
to throw it to the bottom, where
233
00:17:02.799 --> 00:17:07.720
the booksellerâ s bags vibrated,
where the ironing board was recharged. The
234
00:17:07.799 --> 00:17:14.240
same one that was hiding that stapled
cloth from the wall with the throw I
235
00:17:14.240 --> 00:17:18.920
broke several things. Books, toys, hidden, plates came out and that
236
00:17:18.960 --> 00:17:23.880
ironing board fell. The movements stopped
for a second. I was relieved.
237
00:17:25.039 --> 00:17:27.599
But it didn' t end there, because when things fell off because of
238
00:17:27.599 --> 00:17:32.920
the blow on the table, the
cloth was also cut. We heard her
239
00:17:32.960 --> 00:17:37.559
tearing up hard. The dust came
out of her. As the fabric broke,
240
00:17:37.920 --> 00:17:41.599
it hid a dark wooden box.
It looked polished. She was pretty,
241
00:17:42.359 --> 00:17:48.160
or so I thought momentarily until I
saw a cross on her. Daniela
242
00:17:48.240 --> 00:17:52.519
lost all reason and started screaming,
telling me that was an ash box.
243
00:17:52.680 --> 00:17:57.519
The worst was not that, but
they started to run many small spiders around
244
00:17:57.599 --> 00:18:04.119
the box to spread slowly everywhere.
Lucero ended up on the floor, so
245
00:18:04.160 --> 00:18:08.920
I approached her to lift her up. A little tears began to cloud my
246
00:18:08.960 --> 00:18:14.440
eyes, I began to cry for
help. While I was reloading at the
247
00:18:14.440 --> 00:18:18.400
door. It was obvious that a
spirit or something worse was punishing us for
248
00:18:18.440 --> 00:18:23.000
entering that place. I was begging
God to get us out of that place
249
00:18:23.519 --> 00:18:29.480
and when I was more scared from
behind, I heard a voice asking if
250
00:18:29.519 --> 00:18:32.559
we were okay with what the three
of us started screaming to get us out
251
00:18:32.559 --> 00:18:37.559
of there. Lucero was already awake
and as soon as he moved the door
252
00:18:37.720 --> 00:18:41.519
leaving us free. She pushed me
out to crawl out. The sun was
253
00:18:41.599 --> 00:18:45.359
setting. I remember feeling neither hot
nor cold, but I couldn' t
254
00:18:45.440 --> 00:18:51.799
stop shaking. The other two girls
had come looking for us when they heard
255
00:18:51.920 --> 00:18:56.000
screams in the distance at the end, when we told them what happened,
256
00:18:56.200 --> 00:19:00.000
obviously they didn' t believe us
too much, but they didn' t
257
00:19:00.000 --> 00:19:02.480
contradict us either. They said and
for my part, I didn' t
258
00:19:02.559 --> 00:19:04.920
stay in that student house for another
day, but, to my surprise,
259
00:19:06.599 --> 00:19:11.720
neither Lucero nor Daniela. The three
of us ran away from that place because
260
00:19:11.880 --> 00:19:15.359
we knew there was something trapped there
because of ashes that didn' t find
261
00:19:15.359 --> 00:19:22.039
their place. And the worst thing
is, it looked like we released him
262
00:19:22.039 --> 00:19:23.759
looking on the Internet. Some time
later, for all the doubts I had
263
00:19:23.799 --> 00:19:29.880
about that experience. I heard that
some spirits are fixed to places where they
264
00:19:29.920 --> 00:19:33.240
spread their ashes. That' s
why some people even use them to do
265
00:19:33.400 --> 00:19:37.160
witchcraft if that' s possible.
It' s a horrible practice. One
266
00:19:37.200 --> 00:19:41.279
of the girls who lived there saw
the owner pull things out and told us
267
00:19:41.319 --> 00:19:45.440
that the urn dates indicated that they
were the remains of a girl no more
268
00:19:45.559 --> 00:19:52.119
than nine years old. Story written
and adapted by Patricia González
1
00:00:05.080 --> 00:00:10.919
The ghost of the urn. I
went to live in the center of the
2
00:00:11.000 --> 00:00:15.679
country so I could do my degree. Fortunately, I was able to enter
3
00:00:15.679 --> 00:00:18.679
the university I wanted. I just
had one problem. My parents didn'
4
00:00:18.719 --> 00:00:22.280
t support me with the decision and
I wasn' t surprised. They didn
5
00:00:22.320 --> 00:00:25.719
' t want me to leave the
house until I got married. Besides,
6
00:00:25.800 --> 00:00:29.480
I was born in a very violent
village. Gun detonations are heard here all
7
00:00:29.519 --> 00:00:33.840
the time. That' s why. I understand that they didn' t
8
00:00:33.880 --> 00:00:37.920
want me to leave the state,
but it was my dream and I couldn
9
00:00:37.920 --> 00:00:40.759
' t let him escape. That' s why I ended up in a
10
00:00:40.799 --> 00:00:45.200
place that belonged to someone. When
I entered the university it was for the
11
00:00:45.280 --> 00:00:49.200
cycle that began in January. I
got ready to go with the little money
12
00:00:49.320 --> 00:00:53.320
I made on a farm I worked
on for a while. My parents gave
13
00:00:53.359 --> 00:00:59.079
me nothing or good luck, because
they were upset in the place where I
14
00:00:59.200 --> 00:01:03.719
was going to live. I was
waiting for Lucero, a girl who had
15
00:01:03.960 --> 00:01:07.640
spent three semesters in the same career
as me and who had contacted through the
16
00:01:07.680 --> 00:01:12.760
group where all the people in the
division to which my career belongs, told
17
00:01:12.840 --> 00:01:18.319
me that in the student house where
she lived, she had taken a room
18
00:01:18.359 --> 00:01:22.879
and that I could stay in it. That' s right, I contacted
19
00:01:22.879 --> 00:01:26.000
the owner, gave her my references
and Lucero welcomed me to the house.
20
00:01:26.599 --> 00:01:29.920
That' s the nicest thing anyone' s ever done that doesn' t
21
00:01:29.959 --> 00:01:32.680
know me with the good luck I
thought I' d had. Upon arriving
22
00:01:32.680 --> 00:01:36.640
at the house where we were all
going to be, I ran into another
23
00:01:36.680 --> 00:01:41.439
girl who was arriving who would occupy
the same room. The situation became confusing
24
00:01:41.519 --> 00:01:45.400
for the owner of the house and
admitted two girls at the same time,
25
00:01:46.280 --> 00:01:51.239
even though there was only one room
available. It had become uncomfortable my arrival
26
00:01:51.680 --> 00:01:56.040
to feel completely welcomed by this great
city, by Lucero and by my new
27
00:01:56.120 --> 00:02:00.079
life. Now I had to wait
for the owner' s resolution to find
28
00:02:00.200 --> 00:02:02.920
out if she would have a home
or not. In the end, the
29
00:02:02.959 --> 00:02:07.239
resolution was not what I expected.
Apparently, the house had a room on
30
00:02:07.280 --> 00:02:12.120
the roof where another space was to
be provided for someone else, but the
31
00:02:12.120 --> 00:02:15.719
adaptation of the place had not begun. That room was the one she called
32
00:02:15.759 --> 00:02:21.120
the room for the Tiliches. It
was just above the area where the four
33
00:02:21.199 --> 00:02:24.919
rooms were for the students. Since
the house was two floors, I was
34
00:02:25.039 --> 00:02:29.960
going to end up on the third
floor there was only one detail. The
35
00:02:30.000 --> 00:02:34.719
room could only be accessed by means
of a metal staircase that had to be
36
00:02:34.759 --> 00:02:38.479
recharged on the edge of the ceiling, where the laundry room was. There
37
00:02:38.560 --> 00:02:43.360
was the roofless space through which the
sun entered to dry the clothes on the
38
00:02:43.400 --> 00:02:47.439
clothesline. When I told her I
was interested in seeing the room, that
39
00:02:47.479 --> 00:02:52.240
one went out looking for the neighbor, who lent us the ladder so we
40
00:02:52.240 --> 00:02:55.800
could do that. Since the lady
could no longer climb stairs like that without
41
00:02:57.120 --> 00:02:59.639
handrails because she was dangerous because of
her age. I stare that r urra
42
00:02:59.719 --> 00:03:04.199
told me that only a few times
had they gone up to that place.
43
00:03:04.759 --> 00:03:08.759
They had even thought it was a
good idea to make a small terrace for
44
00:03:08.800 --> 00:03:13.400
parties, but the floor was full
of paint and dirt stains. I didn
45
00:03:13.520 --> 00:03:17.520
' t have a bathroom on the
top was hard to get up and there
46
00:03:17.520 --> 00:03:21.159
was just that little room where the
lady' s stuff was kept. When
47
00:03:21.280 --> 00:03:24.280
I lived there, I thought luck
wasn' t so bad, but seeing
48
00:03:24.319 --> 00:03:29.960
the little room without ventilation, I
wanted to run away, but I didn
49
00:03:30.039 --> 00:03:32.240
' t know where I didn'
t even have anyone around to go back
50
00:03:32.240 --> 00:03:35.319
to my parents. It wasn'
t an option for me either. In
51
00:03:35.360 --> 00:03:37.879
spite of everything, I took the
place. I told the owner that it
52
00:03:37.919 --> 00:03:40.520
was okay for me and she lowered
the rent a little bit that week,
53
00:03:42.360 --> 00:03:46.919
before starting the classes I had thought
of walking around the city so I could
54
00:03:46.039 --> 00:03:51.680
learn how to move, I was
going to spend it cleaning up and settling
55
00:03:51.719 --> 00:03:54.319
things so I could live. That' s where I started cleaning alone.
56
00:03:54.360 --> 00:03:59.479
The next day, having arrived the
day before, Sunday afternoon, I woke
57
00:03:59.479 --> 00:04:03.639
up at six as usual, I
climbed up with some plastic bags to throw
58
00:04:03.719 --> 00:04:10.960
away most of the garbage that had
been kept. I went up there broom
59
00:04:11.039 --> 00:04:14.840
picker and a boat with water in
case I needed it. That roof was
60
00:04:14.919 --> 00:04:19.240
totally latched and small around. I
could only see the other houses set up.
61
00:04:19.399 --> 00:04:24.920
Covering the view, I opened the
door with the key that the lady
62
00:04:24.959 --> 00:04:30.079
gave me warning me that I had
to always leave the door locked when I
63
00:04:30.120 --> 00:04:32.000
wasn' t using my space.
I opened the room again. Again I
64
00:04:32.079 --> 00:04:36.759
felt that the dust went deep into
my lungs and I began to cough too
65
00:04:36.839 --> 00:04:43.360
much. There were old furniture like
those used to store crockery. There was
66
00:04:43.480 --> 00:04:46.959
a base of a bed standing.
There were also about fifteen cartons. I
67
00:04:46.959 --> 00:04:51.720
started cleaning without calling a star.
I also didn' t wait for the
68
00:04:51.800 --> 00:04:55.480
owner' s nephew who said he
could help me lower the heavy stuff.
69
00:04:55.920 --> 00:05:00.240
Honestly, I' d rather do
it as soon as possible. Eating I
70
00:05:00.279 --> 00:05:04.319
started taking out the boxes. I
dropped some very old toys. They were
71
00:05:04.399 --> 00:05:09.800
also filled with dust a lot of
cut cloths with which I filled myself with
72
00:05:09.920 --> 00:05:14.399
dirt to my mouth. I was
feeling disappointed. I didn' t see
73
00:05:14.439 --> 00:05:17.000
a way to use that space.
When I had pulled out the boxes and
74
00:05:17.000 --> 00:05:21.279
other trash, I realized there was
some kind of weird shadow in the background
75
00:05:21.399 --> 00:05:27.040
near an ironing board. I saw
that there was a window covered with black
76
00:05:27.079 --> 00:05:30.240
bags up above a wall attached to
the ceiling but I didn' t know
77
00:05:30.240 --> 00:05:33.920
how to remove it. I didn' t have a half- light staircase
78
00:05:34.000 --> 00:05:38.720
just lit with the door open.
I kept seeing that a dense shadow was
79
00:05:38.759 --> 00:05:43.240
behind that ironing board, but I
also managed to see that there was one
80
00:05:43.279 --> 00:05:47.439
behind a damaged bookseller full of bags
and garbage. It caught my attention because
81
00:05:47.560 --> 00:05:53.000
I couldn' t find shape in
that bag. Little by little I cleared
82
00:05:53.040 --> 00:05:58.199
the space, the boxes were stacked
outside and I was close to reaching the
83
00:05:58.240 --> 00:06:03.279
wall of the background. When I
heard Lucero yell at me, my cell
84
00:06:03.519 --> 00:06:05.879
phone had been ringing and I hadn' t noticed that I was silent.
85
00:06:06.560 --> 00:06:12.040
I walked out of the room to
look at the stairs and told her I
86
00:06:12.160 --> 00:06:16.079
had started a while ago and she
was sorry for not fulfilling her promise to
87
00:06:16.079 --> 00:06:19.360
help me clean up. He accompanied
me to finish settling things in the nephew
88
00:06:19.360 --> 00:06:24.800
' s arrival to bring everything down. I swear it didn' t take
89
00:06:24.879 --> 00:06:29.920
us five minutes between that conversation and
what it took Lucero to come up with
90
00:06:29.959 --> 00:06:33.240
me to go to the room.
That' s why it was extremely rare
91
00:06:33.360 --> 00:06:38.680
to realize that everything I' d
swept away had been useless. There was
92
00:06:38.759 --> 00:06:42.399
a lot of land inside the room. I figured it might have been a
93
00:06:42.439 --> 00:06:46.480
very strong wind that put everything this
dirty, but when I came in I
94
00:06:46.639 --> 00:06:50.319
got entangled in a huge web.
Lucero started screaming. As I became muddy
95
00:06:50.399 --> 00:06:56.000
with cobweb, I also tried to
find out where that cobweb came from,
96
00:06:56.360 --> 00:07:00.879
because I had not seen anything like
it when I opened the room or the
97
00:07:00.920 --> 00:07:04.160
day before because of the broom with
the intention of cleaning the cobwebs, but
98
00:07:04.199 --> 00:07:06.600
it was not in the place where
I had left it. I didn'
99
00:07:06.680 --> 00:07:12.040
t know if I had left it
there, but I also vaguely remembered that
100
00:07:12.120 --> 00:07:15.040
I had put it next to the
old boxes. Lucero had gone out screaming.
101
00:07:15.720 --> 00:07:19.439
He told me he didn' t
like spiders at all. She found
102
00:07:19.480 --> 00:07:24.639
the broom because she saw it lying
in the middle of the garbage bags she
103
00:07:24.680 --> 00:07:29.360
had left next to where the ladder
was to go down. We started cleaning
104
00:07:29.759 --> 00:07:32.720
up Lucero also caught his attention that
shadow that was to the bottom of the
105
00:07:32.800 --> 00:07:39.600
room. So we agreed to remove
everything as soon as possible. When we
106
00:07:39.600 --> 00:07:45.120
finally realized it was that, we
were disappointed. It was just a cloth
107
00:07:45.240 --> 00:07:49.600
attached to the wall a fabric of
black velvet with flowers that I had not
108
00:07:49.680 --> 00:07:55.199
been able to appreciate well until between
the two we removed the black bags from
109
00:07:55.240 --> 00:08:00.000
the window in order to see better, because the room lacked focus of light
110
00:08:00.040 --> 00:08:03.360
both of us were seeing the velvet
fabric laughing. It was clear that it
111
00:08:03.439 --> 00:08:07.120
was glued with some kind of staples
to the wall it didn' t look
112
00:08:07.399 --> 00:08:11.360
like they did, but I was
wrapping something I touched the cloth with the
113
00:08:11.360 --> 00:08:13.879
broom and this one didn' t
fall, so I decided to pull it
114
00:08:13.879 --> 00:08:16.720
a little bit, but nothing happened
either. Lucero suggested that we remove all
115
00:08:16.839 --> 00:08:22.920
the furniture by pushing them to the
sides by the end, when we finished
116
00:08:22.040 --> 00:08:26.199
cleaning the cloth. We went on
a little longer, but one heaviness took
117
00:08:26.240 --> 00:08:30.879
over both of us. It felt
like we' d been cleaning for hours,
118
00:08:31.240 --> 00:08:35.519
but barely an hour had passed.
A girl named Daniela, who also
119
00:08:35.639 --> 00:08:39.159
lived there, went up to see
the novelty of that room. He didn
120
00:08:39.240 --> 00:08:43.000
' t pay attention to me.
He didn' t seem interested in knowing
121
00:08:43.039 --> 00:08:48.399
me, but he talked a lot
to the star I heard that the owner
122
00:08:48.480 --> 00:08:52.440
had called to warn him that his
nephew had had a problem with one of
123
00:08:52.440 --> 00:08:56.600
the tires in his truck. When
I heard that, I turned around to
124
00:08:56.720 --> 00:09:00.519
ask what happened. It wasn'
t possible for that to happen now.
125
00:09:00.639 --> 00:09:03.279
I was urged to have a safe
place to live before going to school.
126
00:09:05.639 --> 00:09:09.159
At the time, I think I
pulled my clothes or something. One of
127
00:09:09.200 --> 00:09:15.200
the banks of books stacked on the
ground fell all making an intense noise,
128
00:09:15.679 --> 00:09:20.360
a black dust, rose all three
we began to cough. When I could
129
00:09:20.399 --> 00:09:24.279
open my eyes, I saw that
I was stepping on one of the books
130
00:09:24.360 --> 00:09:28.360
and realized that they were not normal
books, they were photo albums. I
131
00:09:28.440 --> 00:09:33.159
was stepping on one of the photographs
that had fallen was the photo of a
132
00:09:33.279 --> 00:09:35.559
little girl. I don' t
think I was over six years old.
133
00:09:37.000 --> 00:09:41.559
The picture was black and white.
In it that girl bit a bread holding
134
00:09:41.639 --> 00:09:45.799
it with one hand looking at the
camera, while holding a jar of mud
135
00:09:45.799 --> 00:09:48.200
in the other hand. He wore
braids and a suit that looked winter.
136
00:09:50.200 --> 00:09:52.600
I took my foot off right away. After that, a gnash was heard.
137
00:09:54.159 --> 00:09:58.360
All three of us were quiet.
We were hoping to know what that
138
00:09:58.399 --> 00:10:01.320
was, but we never heard the
noise again. I took the picture.
139
00:10:01.840 --> 00:10:05.200
Daniela came up to grab the photo
album and started seeing them with Lucero.
140
00:10:07.360 --> 00:10:09.960
I looked again at the photo I
stepped on. The girl seemed to stare
141
00:10:11.000 --> 00:10:13.879
at the camera, but it was
such an intense look that you could feel
142
00:10:13.960 --> 00:10:18.840
like she was looking at you.
I checked the back and saw the name
143
00:10:18.879 --> 00:10:24.840
Juana. February of seventy- two. The gnashing was heard again. He
144
00:10:24.919 --> 00:10:28.679
took me by surprise and I got
scared. And then the door of the
145
00:10:28.679 --> 00:10:33.720
room closed violently. All three of
us ran to the exit, but we
146
00:10:33.759 --> 00:10:37.799
couldn' t open the door.
We felt that she was adored. It
147
00:10:37.879 --> 00:10:41.559
occurred to Lucero that we could push
the door at three o' clock to
148
00:10:41.559 --> 00:10:46.039
open it. I told her it
was a good idea, but Daniela asked
149
00:10:46.120 --> 00:10:48.960
me about the key right away.
I put my hand in my pants,
150
00:10:50.120 --> 00:10:54.360
but there was no key. It
made us very worried and scared to be
151
00:10:54.440 --> 00:10:58.919
there and suddenly we heard how something
started to spin, like when the wood
152
00:11:00.080 --> 00:11:03.399
thunders when the temperature changes. When
I stopped talking, we kept listening to
153
00:11:03.440 --> 00:11:09.600
the sound and I started feeling nervous
because it wasn' t normal. Lucero
154
00:11:09.639 --> 00:11:13.720
started looking for something to fall.
Daniela told us the nephew was coming at
155
00:11:13.720 --> 00:11:18.799
some point in the afternoon when he
could fix the flat tire. So it
156
00:11:18.879 --> 00:11:24.679
was better to calm down because we
were listening to things. We didn'
157
00:11:24.759 --> 00:11:26.840
t have a cell phone. We
thought it was a matter of time before
158
00:11:26.919 --> 00:11:31.279
the other two girls or the owner' s nephew came looking for us.
159
00:11:31.759 --> 00:11:35.519
Daniela sat down. The sounds surrounded
us, but she seemed to ignore everything.
160
00:11:35.600 --> 00:11:39.720
Looking at the photo albums I had
taken before. Lucero came up to
161
00:11:39.799 --> 00:11:43.919
me and told me that he felt
like they were seeing us I looked everywhere.
162
00:11:45.320 --> 00:11:48.480
I told him we had to find
out what to do for a while,
163
00:11:48.919 --> 00:11:50.679
and I moved the bumps that were
left in the bookseller at the bottom.
164
00:11:52.399 --> 00:11:56.120
They slipped some vanities magazines. I
started to lift them, but a
165
00:11:56.120 --> 00:12:01.879
series of large spiders with thin legs
ran in I Among them I released everything.
166
00:12:01.000 --> 00:12:05.519
Lucero started panicking. Daniela was ignoring
us, but what she couldn'
167
00:12:05.639 --> 00:12:09.399
t ignore was that, under a
small bureau that was in between some wrapped
168
00:12:09.480 --> 00:12:15.519
plastic bags, she rolled out a
ball. My body froze and I could
169
00:12:15.600 --> 00:12:20.240
feel as if my soul had slipped
out. It didn' t make sense
170
00:12:20.320 --> 00:12:24.240
how that ball turned up. The
worst thing is that she had rolled to
171
00:12:24.279 --> 00:12:28.480
the feet of a star and she
got very pale and I tried to distract
172
00:12:28.519 --> 00:12:31.519
her from that by telling her that
she was a ghost wanting to play with
173
00:12:31.519 --> 00:12:35.440
her. I said it as a
joke, but Daniela told me scared that
174
00:12:35.519 --> 00:12:39.960
you wouldn' t play with those
things. Lucero contained tears pressing his lips.
175
00:12:39.879 --> 00:12:45.440
I was worried he was going to
faint or something because the atmosphere felt
176
00:12:45.519 --> 00:12:48.679
too heavy. I went to hug
her and kicked the ball a little bit
177
00:12:48.679 --> 00:12:54.080
in the distance, without the intention
of putting it somewhere specific, but I
178
00:12:54.120 --> 00:12:58.799
stood up every beautiful one of the
body when I saw that the ball seemed
179
00:12:58.840 --> 00:13:03.159
to spin touched by something invisible to
return to our feet. Daniela got up
180
00:13:03.200 --> 00:13:07.240
from where she was sitting and hugged
us, we didn' t know what
181
00:13:07.240 --> 00:13:09.279
to do. We looked at each
other with terror, we didn' t
182
00:13:09.279 --> 00:13:13.720
talk. I felt that whatever was
throwing the ball at us, I could
183
00:13:13.840 --> 00:13:20.120
hear the star crying in silence,
covering his mouth with one hand. I
184
00:13:20.159 --> 00:13:24.720
approached to try to take the ball
and just hold it in my hand.
185
00:13:24.120 --> 00:13:28.480
Maybe that' s how she'
d stop moving alone. We were facing
186
00:13:28.519 --> 00:13:33.320
something ghostly. So, when I
tried to take the ball to end our
187
00:13:33.320 --> 00:13:37.879
panic, the ball moved itself to
keep it from taking it. I stayed
188
00:13:37.919 --> 00:13:43.159
in the position where I was as
if I had been petrified. I was
189
00:13:43.240 --> 00:13:48.799
trying to figure out what to do, but when I looked at the girls
190
00:13:48.879 --> 00:13:50.080
to find out how they were,
they were both hugged crying in silence.
191
00:13:50.879 --> 00:13:54.559
We couldn' t get out of
there. And now something invisible was in
192
00:13:54.600 --> 00:14:01.200
the room, tormenting us, I
slowly incorporated myself felt bread and to do
193
00:14:01.200 --> 00:14:03.320
something abrupt. I told them it
was time to look to knock the door
194
00:14:03.360 --> 00:14:07.279
down, even if it was a
kick and both nodded with their heads.
195
00:14:07.440 --> 00:14:13.840
I looked around and saw a small
table turned upside down. It was between
196
00:14:13.919 --> 00:14:18.919
paper bags and other garbage. I
thought that might help us stare would cover
197
00:14:20.039 --> 00:14:24.159
his eyes as Daniela told me to
hurry, because she wasn' t going
198
00:14:24.159 --> 00:14:26.480
to get her hands on any of
those things, because something bad was there.
199
00:14:28.279 --> 00:14:31.279
Well, despite the terror, I
had to touch that, even though
200
00:14:31.320 --> 00:14:35.840
I thought the same thing, it
was more my need to get out of
201
00:14:35.879 --> 00:14:39.759
there than the fear I felt for
a lot of garbage. That' s
202
00:14:39.799 --> 00:14:45.440
how I played brave and took the
coffee table. I easily grabbed her by
203
00:14:45.480 --> 00:14:50.279
dropping the bags and newspapers that were
on or around her. I pulled the
204
00:14:50.360 --> 00:14:54.879
table to release her, but I
stopped the star- care cry. I
205
00:14:54.919 --> 00:14:58.600
looked around and about ten or fifteen
spiders maybe more had come down with their
206
00:14:58.679 --> 00:15:03.399
cloths to stay around me. I
screamed. Those spiders weren' t normal.
207
00:15:05.039 --> 00:15:09.519
It was impossible to explain to those
spiders they hadn' t even left.
208
00:15:09.559 --> 00:15:13.720
When I started to move things around, I was moving everywhere, fanning
209
00:15:13.759 --> 00:15:16.960
with the table, and even though
I killed several spiders, I had the
210
00:15:18.039 --> 00:15:22.799
feeling that they were walking between my
legs or arms. I laughed at the
211
00:15:22.840 --> 00:15:26.879
girls and started shaking at the table. Next to them they looked at me
212
00:15:26.919 --> 00:15:31.639
like I was crazy, but at
the same time they yelled at me not
213
00:15:31.639 --> 00:15:33.960
to throw the spiders at them.
Over. Daniela grabbed the table while I
214
00:15:33.960 --> 00:15:39.519
was in hysteria trying to take the
feeling out of those spiders and I say
215
00:15:39.639 --> 00:15:43.559
feeling because I didn' t see
them. But I still felt something moving
216
00:15:43.679 --> 00:15:46.840
through my skin. With a dry
blow, I put aside my struggle against
217
00:15:46.960 --> 00:15:52.440
those invisible beings and watched Daniela knock
on the door with the table. The
218
00:15:52.559 --> 00:15:58.279
third blow. We felt as if
the whole room had trembled and the creaks
219
00:15:58.320 --> 00:16:03.320
increased. Get out of my pants. The photograph of the girl that I
220
00:16:03.360 --> 00:16:07.639
found loose among the photo albums,
I didn' t know how she got
221
00:16:07.639 --> 00:16:12.519
there. The woods thundered the photo
half terror because for a second I saw
222
00:16:12.559 --> 00:16:18.399
as if that girl had blinked.
I don' t know if Daniela saw
223
00:16:18.399 --> 00:16:22.279
that blink too, but she started
screaming like crazy as she hit the door
224
00:16:22.360 --> 00:16:25.919
with the table, until she hurt
her right hand and had to stop.
225
00:16:26.879 --> 00:16:30.360
Lucero wanted to take care of her, but in the middle of the way
226
00:16:30.440 --> 00:16:33.120
he pointed his hand at the bottom
of the room. We looked at where
227
00:16:33.240 --> 00:16:37.799
he was aiming and saw some papers
moving alone from one side to the other.
228
00:16:37.320 --> 00:16:42.000
Some bags were also vibrating, but
what really made me unable to contain
229
00:16:42.039 --> 00:16:47.799
myself from the terror and started asking
for help screaming at every lung, was
230
00:16:47.879 --> 00:16:52.759
to see the magazines that were lying
on the ground alone. As expected,
231
00:16:52.960 --> 00:16:57.120
Lucero fainted from the impression, Daniela
contained it and I took the table with
232
00:16:57.120 --> 00:17:02.679
which I was knocking on the door
to throw it to the bottom, where
233
00:17:02.799 --> 00:17:07.720
the booksellerâ s bags vibrated,
where the ironing board was recharged. The
234
00:17:07.799 --> 00:17:14.240
same one that was hiding that stapled
cloth from the wall with the throw I
235
00:17:14.240 --> 00:17:18.920
broke several things. Books, toys, hidden, plates came out and that
236
00:17:18.960 --> 00:17:23.880
ironing board fell. The movements stopped
for a second. I was relieved.
237
00:17:25.039 --> 00:17:27.599
But it didn' t end there, because when things fell off because of
238
00:17:27.599 --> 00:17:32.920
the blow on the table, the
cloth was also cut. We heard her
239
00:17:32.960 --> 00:17:37.559
tearing up hard. The dust came
out of her. As the fabric broke,
240
00:17:37.920 --> 00:17:41.599
it hid a dark wooden box.
It looked polished. She was pretty,
241
00:17:42.359 --> 00:17:48.160
or so I thought momentarily until I
saw a cross on her. Daniela
242
00:17:48.240 --> 00:17:52.519
lost all reason and started screaming,
telling me that was an ash box.
243
00:17:52.680 --> 00:17:57.519
The worst was not that, but
they started to run many small spiders around
244
00:17:57.599 --> 00:18:04.119
the box to spread slowly everywhere.
Lucero ended up on the floor, so
245
00:18:04.160 --> 00:18:08.920
I approached her to lift her up. A little tears began to cloud my
246
00:18:08.960 --> 00:18:14.440
eyes, I began to cry for
help. While I was reloading at the
247
00:18:14.440 --> 00:18:18.400
door. It was obvious that a
spirit or something worse was punishing us for
248
00:18:18.440 --> 00:18:23.000
entering that place. I was begging
God to get us out of that place
249
00:18:23.519 --> 00:18:29.480
and when I was more scared from
behind, I heard a voice asking if
250
00:18:29.519 --> 00:18:32.559
we were okay with what the three
of us started screaming to get us out
251
00:18:32.559 --> 00:18:37.559
of there. Lucero was already awake
and as soon as he moved the door
252
00:18:37.720 --> 00:18:41.519
leaving us free. She pushed me
out to crawl out. The sun was
253
00:18:41.599 --> 00:18:45.359
setting. I remember feeling neither hot
nor cold, but I couldn' t
254
00:18:45.440 --> 00:18:51.799
stop shaking. The other two girls
had come looking for us when they heard
255
00:18:51.920 --> 00:18:56.000
screams in the distance at the end, when we told them what happened,
256
00:18:56.200 --> 00:19:00.000
obviously they didn' t believe us
too much, but they didn' t
257
00:19:00.000 --> 00:19:02.480
contradict us either. They said and
for my part, I didn' t
258
00:19:02.559 --> 00:19:04.920
stay in that student house for another
day, but, to my surprise,
259
00:19:06.599 --> 00:19:11.720
neither Lucero nor Daniela. The three
of us ran away from that place because
260
00:19:11.880 --> 00:19:15.359
we knew there was something trapped there
because of ashes that didn' t find
261
00:19:15.359 --> 00:19:22.039
their place. And the worst thing
is, it looked like we released him
262
00:19:22.039 --> 00:19:23.759
looking on the Internet. Some time
later, for all the doubts I had
263
00:19:23.799 --> 00:19:29.880
about that experience. I heard that
some spirits are fixed to places where they
264
00:19:29.920 --> 00:19:33.240
spread their ashes. That' s
why some people even use them to do
265
00:19:33.400 --> 00:19:37.160
witchcraft if that' s possible.
It' s a horrible practice. One
266
00:19:37.200 --> 00:19:41.279
of the girls who lived there saw
the owner pull things out and told us
267
00:19:41.319 --> 00:19:45.440
that the urn dates indicated that they
were the remains of a girl no more
268
00:19:45.559 --> 00:19:52.119
than nine years old. Story written
