A nagual turned into a dragon and tried to abduct Meche, the most beautiful girl in the town. But Meche said the powerful name of the Virgin of Guadalupe at loud, and the nagual got scared and vanished like smoke.

I was attacked by a horrible nagual that suddenly appeared. Terrified, I implored the Virgin of Guadalupe who made so that the nagual disappeared. However, I went through such a shock that my hair turned gray.

Every night, a nagual came from under my bed and scared me. I prayed to the Virgin of Guadalupe, and the monster didn’t appear anymore.

Doroteo Juarez used to drink a lot of mescal. One evening he saw a giant nagual in shape of dragon. The nagual asked for a drink, and Doroteo got so frightened that he promised to the Virgin of Guadalupe to stop drinking if she chase the nagual away. The nagual disappeared like smoke in the air. The Doroteo’s wife thanks the Virgin because her husband doesn’t drink anymore and his life is happier now.

The night of October 23, 1957, the Romero brothers were coming back home after having drunk in the town. They met a nagual. They thank the Virgin for they didn’t die of fear and the nagual didn’t attack them and let them go.

You saved me, Virgin, from a nagual that appeared to me this night. Thank you for scaring him away.

Maria Guadalupe and I loved each other, but her brother Poncho was against our relationships. Since he was a sorcerer, he came at nights as a furious nagual to separate us. Only thanks to the Virgin of Guadalupe’s help and her blessing, we managed to run away and get married in another town.

When Matilda Corona went to gather some prickly pears, a nagual appeared to her. The nagual started to persuade her to go with him and he promised her a treasure. Matilda thanks the Virgin of Guadalupe because she realized that the nagual was lying. She didn’t accept his proposition and didn’t fall in his trap. Matilda came back home, and the nagual never bother her since.

The Lopez sisters watched a horror movie in the cinema. And after, on their way home, they met a nagual in an alley. They thank the Virgin of Zapopan because with her protection they managed to run away from the spell of this horrifying monster.

We went to the desert to gather some peyote and on our way we encountered a huge colorful nagual. We entrusted ourselves to Saint Francis and he made us invisible to the nagual’s eyes. He didn’t see us so we could escape. We thank for it.

I wanted to go to the Town Day celebration, so early at the morning, when even the sun had not yet arisen, I went to the river wash my clothes. There I met a nagual with long sharp claws. He went towards me. I thank the Virgin of Guadalupe [. . .]

The top shelf of my wardrobe was possessed by a horrible nagual who didn’t even let me take my new shoes. I prayed the Virgin of Guadalupe for her intervention so that she would deliver me from this evil animal. And June 4, 1959, it disappeared.
