Also recommended: Memento Mori by Paul Koudounaris, an author and photographer who has researched several global traditions involving death and rituals involving human remains, and extensively studied ñatitas for a chapter of this book.

For centuries, the coast of Chile has been haunted by the stories of the ghost ship Caleuche... a phantom vessel that employs members of the living dead! Come aboard as we explore the folklore behind this supernatural phenomena and listen to those who claim to have seen the Caleuche... and its sinister crew of undead sailors, witches, and tortured souls...
