Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. Pages: 18. Chapters: Alux, Baile de la Conquista, Cadejo, Dogs in Mesoamerican folklore and myth, El Sombreron, La Llorona, Maximon, Nagual, Pedro Urdemales, Popol Vuh, San Pascualito, Sihuanaba, Tecun Uman, Tonal (mythology), Worry doll.
