"La pasajera fantasma del Batán” – The ghost passenger of Batán

 Hi, everyone!

This week, I have to tell you an unbelievable legend. Recently, I was talking with my uncles and some of them are taxi drivers. They told me a story that happens at the north of the city, and most of them confirmed that the legend is real. I don’t know if I have to believe in what they told me so, please after read this post tell me, what do you think?


They say that around 10 years ago in Quito, a famous call at midnight was happening to many taxi drivers. A beautiful lady calls a taxi driver in the historic center towards “El Batán” cemetery. The taxi driver agrees and follows her route normally until reaching her destination. Once at the place, the taxi driver asks for his payment but the lady does not listen him and gets out of the car. The driver follows her, but she continues walking towards the cemetery walls. Finally, the taxi driver reaches the lady and tries to grab her arm however, she begins to rise and crosses the walls towards the cemetery.



I’ve never heard about that, but they assured me that it is a real story! Do you think it is possible?

    Hi Emy. I have never heard this story, but there are many stories like this in different parts of our country. For example, in Esmeraldas there is "La tacona" or in Guayaquil there is "La dama tapada". All these stories are too similar. For this reason, I do not know if they are true or not.

Well, in this legend you will know a mysterious story about a little demon that happens in Quito city, but it does not exist a specific area. S ome people says that “Guagua Auca” is a demon  created by a child’s soul who was born and died without being baptized. It is he who terrifies drunkards on the roads late at night. What likes to do it is cry with an incessant and noisy shriek that makes anyone desperate. The drunken men unknowingly search for the source of the squeal until they find what seems to be a little baby wrapped in a blanket. After that, drunkards discover how the appearance of the supposed child changes and they realize that they were actually carrying a demon. Some drunk men said that after that day, it was the final of his drunkenness. However, most people say that many drunkards have been found de...
