El Silbón

353

A young man working on his father's farm in Venezuela once killed his father after his father murdered his wife. The farmer's grandfather decided to wreak revenge on his grandson and ordered other farmers to abuse him cruelly. The grandfather initially whipped his grandson's back, then applied salt to exacerbate the pain. Eventually, in an attempt to kill his grandson, he let free two horrible black dogs that attacked his ankles while the grandson cried out and fled into the adjacent jungle, where his body has never been recovered. Some claim he became a damned soul bent to destroy everyone he encountered, primarily intoxicated individuals or adulterers.
