Tunda

The Tunda (Spanish: La Tunda) is a myth of the Pacific coastal region of Colombia and Ecuador, and particularly in the Afro-Colombian community of the Chocó department, about a shapeshifting entity, resembling a human female, that lures people into the forests and keeps them there. It is capable of changing its shape to appear in the form of a loved one, as in the likeness of a child's mother, to lure its victims into the forest and feed them with shrimps she has farted upon (camarones peídos) to keep them docile. This is called entundamiento and a person in this state is entundado(a).
