Legends Of Our Magdalena's Waterways


The One-Legged Woman 


This is the legend about a woman who was cheating on hier husband with the owner of the farm they worked on.


Her husband was noticing some changes on his wife, so a friend of him told him about the affaire; however, the man needed to see by himself to believe it.

So, he told his wife that he was going on a trip, but he didn’t go anywhere and he rather stayed spying on her. Then, at night he saw how his chief went to his wife’s room and kissed her.

As a result, he was furious when he saw them. In his anger he rushed to cut his wife’s leg and he killed both of them. 

He later went to jail for the murders. Now, it is said that the woman lives on farms and she haunts men, she tricks them and makes them follow her into the woods and when they are there, she shows her awful face, her only leg, and scares them to death.
