Cadejo
El Cadejo is a creature from Central American folklore. They’re described as being as large as a cow with shaggy black or white hair and cloven hooves. Seeing a white Cadejo is thought to bring good fortune and protection during a dangerous journey. Some describe Cadejo as large shaggy black dogs with a white spot on their chest. They’re always sighted by burial grounds. If left alone then Cadejo typically just keep walking, but if bothered then they attack mercilessly. Seeing a black Cadejo is bad, and there are three different species of them. The first form of black Cadejo is thought to be a form of the devil himself.…
