The story of Pascualita.

31 69

Greetings my dear reader friends, yesterday I was reading posts in several of the networks and in some of them I came across something interesting. It was already very late at night, I was very sleepy but the story is one of those that catch my attention because of its tone of mystery.

I stayed listening to the audio of the story until it ended, I only remember that I wrote down the name of the story and where it took place because with my tiredness I was sure that in the morning I would forget it.

Now when I opened my laptop and checked my notes I found at the end what I wrote and this is what I remember from the audio of this story...

It happened in a place in the city of Chihuahua in the Republic of Mexico.

A pretty girl by the name of Pascuala was about to get married, she was very happy putting on her wedding dress, innocent of everything around her, she never imagined her cruel destiny. Next to her was making an appearance one of the most dangerous species of spiders, the black widow.

This spider was creeping up the dress of the beautiful and unsuspecting bride, until it reached a place where it was apparently noticed by the girl and thrown from her body… but not before the named poisonous spider left its precious toxic load on the girl's body.

The girl immediately suffered from dizziness and fell on her precious white dress, leaving her last breath.

The bride fell, a day of tragedy for all. She was the only daughter of a proud mother who had raised her daughter with the fruits of her labor. She had a store selling wedding dresses and her own daughter was charmingly sporting the best dress of all.

She was a girl with big, expressive eyes, a very God-graced profile face and a very smooth complexion.

The mother did not allow anyone to see her dead daughter anymore. She did everything she had to do to mourn the girl and for a while the store remained closed to the public.

When again the woman opened her store she had a mannequin that had come to her from somewhere in the world with similar characteristics to her daughter, the people of the town began to say that the daughter had been embalmed and put into that mannequin.

They said that the expression of the mannequin's gaze, which they named La Pascualita, was very penetrating and seemed to look at people through the glass of the dresser, some even dared to say that the mannequin sometimes cried. That it moved its eyes, wiggled its fingers and a number of other things.

The mannequin became the attraction of the town and attracted tourists and a large number of people eager to see if it was real.

Journalists interviewed the locals and many said that they did observe that it moved and even cried from time to time.

After many years the Pascualita's mannequin was replaced by another one. This difference was noticed by everyone and although it was very similar to the previous one, it did not have the same expression of the Pascualita.

So everything went back to normal and people no longer crowded behind the sideboard to see the Pascualita.

It’s a good story to tell, to let the imagination fly, but it’s something of fiction in my opinion, created by the minds of the curious people of the town. Because there are laws, if it had anything to do with reality, I think the town authorities would have found out and arrested the girl's mother, taken her into custody and found out if the mannequin was really the body of the tragically deceased daughter.

But none of that happened. Although let me say that so many mysteries have occurred without police intervention, who knows if the Pascualita really existed, if it really was her daughter? What do you think, my dear commentators?

Let me know what you think, the comment that I find the most creative, whether it is formulated in a fictitious way or according to reality, will have my reward in the form of a Christmas cash prize. This prize will be given within 24 hours of the publication of this post.

Merry Christmas to all of you my dear readers and sponsors!

I believe Pascualita was real, and was truly loved by her mother, that is why she had made a a mannequin in her honour, to serve as a memento much as people build statues for people. The widow spider may have been predominant in that part of the country, and could have gotten into the house/shop.

Making a mannequin resembling your daughter would not be bad. But that people noticed the changes in movement, that's the weird thing.

Oh wow, there are quite a lot of possibilities and all of them scare me! From just a fictitious story told around the neighborhood to a bereaved mother who couldn't bear to lose her daughter and did something horrible to her body.

Yes, there are so many things to do.

It may happen if she is doing an enchantment to transfer a soul to another things like mannequin/doll. If she's a witchcraft. It could be possible... But the devil is the one controlling not the soul of the deceased person.

But, if embalmed it's pretty not quite convincing for the people out there telling the story.

Who knows if it might be a matter of incantations or other spirit things.

Intriguing story that gives much to think about, it is possible that someone has invented the story, but it was great. On the other hand there are many legends, the work of embalming a body is not easy and it is never the same as the original. It is possible that the mannequin was made with the image of the girl, giving birth to the urban legend.

Yes, it is likely. That could be, that the mother asked for that mannequin with her daughter's face and the rest are people's inventions.

I think the supermodel is her daughter. Death took her daughter and she doesn't want to be away from her because she is her only daughter and she did it so that she would always be by her side and feel her presence in this store.

This may have been the case.

I think the mannequin was her daughter herself and she had done something to her daughter after death just like mummification that's why that mannequin was able to move her eyes, fingers, but not her while body. If she had done this thing then she must not do this thing coz after doing this she was actually doing harm to her daughter...

But it was the same mother who later withdrew it from the wedding dress show. She would have left it there for its entire existence until she was discovered or something.

Hi, my friend.

A somewhat gloomy short story for my taste, while still being interesting. But, very possible if we consider the museums. I remember an exhibition of embalmed corpses that went on a world tour.

Perhaps this company passed through town and hired the unfortunate Pascualita.

By the way, if I'm not mistaken, in Ávila, on the Spanish road there is a large house where a scientist mummified several corpses years ago. So, it would be nothing strange if Pascualita's mother hired a colleague of his who made Ávila her home.

Greetings to you and your family this festive season.

I read something about that house on the Avila. I also saw a horror movie many years ago where the mannequin collector was a serial killer and had all his crimes covered up in the mannequins. He embalmed them and covered them in wax. Until he was discovered.

In my opinion, I didn't believe that the mannequin was her daughter. Might be that it was made so that she would not have to think about her daughter much, when she sees the mannequin she will feel as though the daughter is still alive

If it could be that.

There is always one or more urban legends, especially in settlements such as towns with a limited population. These urban legends are told by word of mouth and carried forward for years, but are never proven true. Buddha is one of them, it may be a coincidence that the mannequin really looks alike, and other people in town wanted to make this coincidence a reality with the perception that "eyes and fingers are playing". There is a saying; "If you say something forty times, it will happen." As word of mouth spreads, even the first person who started it believes the story he made up. I think this is a discourse based on perception rather than fiction, and her mother was also uncomfortable with the situation and removed the mannequin. An intriguing and intriguing story.

Yes, it is true. The voice that is passed from mouth to mouth changes over time. A lie is told so many times that we end up believing it.

So strange story but do you know things are bound to happen in reality and leave us to wonder what it's all about. I am thinking if the mother had done something to her daughter and transferred the rites to the mannequin.
