Campfire Chronicles: Stories After Dark

San Antonio, TX is one of the biggest cities in the enormous state of Texas. It's also one of the largest mass graves in the state's history. Between the alamo and natives being eradicated by disease, it's no surprise that the city is flooded with ghost stories. Today we're looking at the patient zero for the curse of "La Llorona." Do you believe in ghosts? Let me know in the comments down below.
