Description

A long time ago in Nahualá there was an epidemic and many people in the town were being turned into zombies. One of these was a woman who returned to her home and ate her baby. Finally her family, with the help of a priest, re-buried her with prayers, and she remained for good in her tomb. Note: This story is similar to another story (#78) in this collection.
