Sihuanaba

Intro

The Sihuanaba, La Siguanaba, Cigua or Cegua is a shapeshifting Spirits of Fear that typically takes the form of an attractive, long haired woman seen from behind. She lures men away into danger before revealing her face to be that of a horse's skull. When encountered, she is a beautiful woman who is either naked or dressed in flimsy white clothing; she usually appears bathing in a public water tank, river, or other water source, although she may also be found washing clothing. She likes to lure lone men out late on dark, moonless nights, without letting them see her face at first. She tempts such men away from their planned routes to lose them in deep canyons and dark forests. When appearing to children, the Siguanaba will take on the appearance of the child's mother in order to lure her victim into her grasp; once touched by the Siguanaba the child is driven mad and she will lead her victim into the wilderness to leave the child lost and insane. Sihuanaba are dual-astral beings with the majority of their essence on the Astral plane.
