2. • THIS STORY IS VERY FAMOUS IN CORDOBA. THERE IS AN OLD HOUSE IN THE CENTER OF THE CITY, AND THIS HOUSE IS
HAUNTED. A LONG TIME AGO THERE LIVED A FAMILY WHO HAD A YOUNG DAUGHTER AND MANY MAIDS AT THERE
SERVICE.
• ONE NIGHT WHILE SHE WAS SLEEPING HE HEARD A NOISE IN THE HALLWAY, SHE OPENED THE DOOR OF HIS ROOM TO
WATCH THE HALLWAY THAT CONNECTED THE ROOMS. AT THE FINAL OF THE HALLWAY THE GIRL SAW A BOY LIFTING
ONE OF THE TILES AND PUTTING SOMETHING INTO A GAP IN THE FLOOR.

3. • THE GIRL SAW THE BOY'S HAND IN GOLD COINS. WHEN THE CHILDREN LEFT, SHE WENT THITHER; THEN CAME ONE OF THE
MAIDS WITH A HUGE SAIL. THE MAID HAD SEEN WHAT HAD HAPPENED. THEY DECIDED THAT THEY WOULD NOT SAY
ANYTHING TO ANYONE.
• EVERY NIGHT THEY WENT TO THAT PLACE WITH A CANDLE, THEY LIFTED THE TILE AND THEY TOOK THE COINS AS NOT TO
LEAVE ANY. EVERY NIGHT THE GIRL GOT INTO THE GAP UNDER THE TILE AND SHE WAS GIVING COINS TO THE MAID,
WHO'S GOING SAVING IN A HUGE SACK. EACH NIGHT THAT PASSED THE CANDLE WAS CONSUMED MORE AND MORE,
BUT THE COINS NEVER ENDED.

4. • ONE NIGHT THE CANDLE BEGAN TO DIM, THE MAID TOLD THE GIRL TO GET OUT OF THE HOLE. THE GIRL LEFT THE GAP,
BUT AT THE LAST MOMENT A COIN FELL THROUGH THE GAP AND THE GIRL GOT INTO THE HOLE. THE MAID TRIED TO
GRAB THE GIRL BUT SHE COULDN’T, AND SHE SCREAMED AT HIM TO GET OUT OF THERE AND LET THE COIN.
• FINALLY THE CANDLE WENT OUT AND THE TILE CLOSED LEAVING THE GIRL INSIDE. THE MAID DIDN’T SAID NOTHING TO
ANYONE, THE PARENTS GAVE THE LITTLE GIRL DISAPPEARED AND THIS WAS FORGOTTEN WITH THE TIME.

5. • BUT EVEN TODAY IN THAT HOUSE CAN STILL BE HEARD AT NIGHT THE CRIES FOR HELP OF THE GIRL REPEATED NIGHT
AFTER NIGHT IN THE HALLWAY "PLEASE... HELP... GET ME OUT OF HERE...". EVEN THE POLICE HAVE GONE MANY TIMES,
BUT WHEN THEY ARRIVED AT THE OLD HOUSE THEY HAVE EVER FOUND AN OLD CANDLE PLACED RIGHT IN THE CENTER
OF A TILE
