She’s buried in the village the next day. Tormented by what she has done Maria drowns herself – some stories argue she died from grief. Maria runs down the riverbank, wailing: “Ay, mis hijos! ” which translates to ‘Oh, my children! or Oh, my sons!’ She desperately tries to rescue them but to no avail.
She suddenly realises what’s she’s done and is filled with regret. Enraged by what she’s seen she throws the children into the river staring on as they drop into its murky depths. Then, one day when Maria was walking with her children she sees her husband with another woman. Her husband apparently began to spend less time at home, ignoring her but pouring his attention on the children. The pair have two children, but after a few happy years together, their marriage hits the rocks. The most common version of the La Llorona story begins with Maria, a beautiful, but vain woman who marries a very rich man. Buy The Curse of La Llorona on DVD and Blu-Ray.
