The haunted trail
A few kilometers from the house where I lived in my childhood, there is a land that from the 18th century until the middle of 20th century, was occupied by a small building of Franciscan missionaries. It is said that more than 100 religious lived in that building served as shelter, dispensary and church and as time passed in the backyard a crypt was built to bury those who were dying.
In the middle of the 60's, and before some changes that took place in the Catholic Church, including what was called the theology of liberation, the building was demolished and a beautiful playground full of leafy trees was displayed on the ground, swings, slides and rounds. However, it was striking that there was a space in the back of the park that no child wanted to approach and when he did he cried inconsolably for no apparent reason.
