La Llorona
This should be easy to recognize (and its the least scary thing on this list). Basically, your Hispanic parents would tell you that if you didn't do what they said "La Llorona" would take you.

Esto debería ser fácil de reconocer, pero es el que menos miedo da en la lista. Básicamente, tus padres hispanos te dirían que si no hicieras lo que dijeron, La Llorona te llevaría.
