The alligator man

0Montenegro was Saul, a handsome young fisherman

brown skin tanned by the sun, who looked in his mouth

a gold tooth smile that made him attractive to women.

But he had an unhealthy fondness for appreciating the

naked bodies of the washerwomen and bathers who

visited the barrel of "Women" of Plate.

0 In the Magdalena River Plate at the height of

Magdalena, swam naked young women, voluptuous,

lustful, who with her beauty wowed a man Io region

and led to the disaster. The man hidden in the

Magdalena river bank, fairies spied perfect geometry,

face adorable, desirable body, blinding looking, that

would be the cause of his fate.

0Legend has it that in the town of plate fisherman lived

a man, who liked to look at women who washed and

bathed in the waters of the Magdalena River. I was so

interested in observing them, yet so afraid of being

discovered that he was looking for a sorcerer to Alta

Guajira (whose capital know, Riohacha). This solution

witch gave as two potions, one red and one white. With

the red potion would become alligator, and could look

closely at the girls without fear of being discovered and

then, of course, they were going to make an example.

0The white potion instead would return to its natural

state human and a friend had supplied around their

raids. For a time the man enjoy his status and his

escapades, watching women as they bathed, innocent,

in the river. One day his buddy could not go with him,

but sent to another person who was in charge of

supplying the potion that would man.

0Seeing the alligator up close, the man got scared

and dropped the bottle, spilling its contents. He

missed the antidote, but a few drops fell on the

head of the alligator man, leaving half man, half

alligator.

0From there the man could not spy on more women

while bathing that became the terror of the place. No

one bathroom but in that part of the river and the

alligator man alone was visited by his mother, who had

been prepared and their favorite foods.

0A death by his mother alligator man decided to be

swept away by the river to its mouth, where it

disappeared. Even now fishermen are hoping to

hunt.

The Slender man

0 Faceless, is thin, very tall and dressed in black. You can

increase its size, lengthen your arms and legs or tentacles

pull back. Stalks his victims for long periods, invisible at

will to go unnoticed. Usually leads to mental disorders and

do not know how its victims die: they just disappear ...

0 It started with a photograph of the Eighties, rescued from

the rubble of a fire in a library of the city of Sterling, in

California, United States. In that picture you could see a

group of fourteen children playing in a local park, but at the

bottom and in an attitude of silent observer unnoticed, lay a

disturbing and black male figure: high (over two meters),

faceless , with black suit, with tentacles, blurred by the

shadow of a tree.

0The really disturbing in the picture was the presence of

children playing around the stranger, as if they could not

see it ... what kid does not attract the attention of a tall,

faceless and tentacles? But the worst came later, as the

children disappeared without trace and Mary Thomas,

the alleged author of the photograph. Their bodies were

never found ...

0 Slender man was born as a tall figure, with arms like tentacles

coming out of his body, which appeared in photos with many

children. While the myth grew, became a monster tall and thin

(estimated height would be between three and four meters) able to

change shape (shape-shifting) in order to catch and enchant its

victims, at times it may look to broad strokes like a normal man,

and other produce countless tentacles. Perhaps what led to make

such a popular figure in "internet Yankee" were the traits that

would identify today: his head completely devoid of any feature,

your skin completely white, and black formal attire.
