Who is the Nahual?
Pretty sure you're like me and stumbled onto this whole Nahual thing through MTV'S FEAR. I thought it was just a show...and now I'm afraid. Like I get it, it's a freaking reality tv show on MTV but SERIOUSLY?
The long and short of it then...I always wanted to take a trip to the Mina Dos Estrellas Mine. I did...
​
The trip was pretty standard. Spooky mine that you couldn't get into without a permit.
​
In the event I start acting "strange" just know IT IS NOT ME!!!!!!!! jesus i'm scared...........................No nothings going to happen. It's just a show right?
​
I'm hoping if you stumbled across this it will be used as a warning. DO NOT GO LOOKING FOR THE NAHUAL. IT WILL LOOK BACK!
​
​
​
After I came back home, everything seemed pretty standard for about a week. Then I noticed the little black dog sitting outside my apartment. All it would do is watch me. And when I approached it the animal would run away. I remembered in episode 11 of Fear they mentioned that a Nahual could be a little black dog and I laughed at the coincidence.
​
Day in and day out, the same things would happen. Occasionally, in the evenings I'd see what I thought was the figure of a person behind the trees. Which ain't impossible, I live in an apartment complex.
​
It always looked like they were staring at me and I started to notice in the daytime, this was where the little black dog watched me.
If you look at some of the pictures below, you'll see that it isn't just some person...
So who is this??
​
A few days ago, I decided to be brave and approach the person standing out by the trees (I was drunk, sue me, but thankfully my three buddies were there with me). When I came around the tree, there absolutely was a shadow of a person there...but that's just it. THAT'S ALL IT WAS! I was standing face to face with a see through person with a pale white face. The longer I stared the more the face began to change into my own!
The only reason I've been able to piece together that this thing is a Nahual is that before I could get away from this thing IT HOWLED!
I thought I was dead...and you know what I kinda wish it did get me that night.
​
Since then I've called the cops multiple times, after being stalked by whoever this is. I've been chased home by this creature.
(Hence some of the pictures you see.)
The problem is, anytime the cops have gone to investigate, all they find is that LITTLE BLACK DOG! I must be going crazy...
​
I'm only guessing i'm dealing with a Nahual, process of elimination. I haven't been back that long from my trip, and I went there with one goal in mind.
​
I'm positive I'm not just dealing with a shapeshifting human. They have to be a ghost or some force. Ghosts have a way of messing with electronic equipment.
​
I don't know for sure yet...but I think the creature has found a way to get inside my house.
Who is the Nahual?
WHAT IS THIS??
At first I thought it was someone in a mask, then I saw it had my face...
NAHUALÂ FACTS
-A Nahual is a shapeshifting human
(Allegedly, more on that in a minute)
​
-A Nahual should only be able to transform into their tonal beast.
(Wolf, Monkey, etc etc, multiple transformations should not be possible!)
​
-Rooted in Mayan Culture
​
-A Shapeshifting Guardian Spirit
​
Honestly A lot of this stuff is from wikipedia, or a quick google search.
My Running Theory
In the Mina Dos Estrellas Mine episode of Fear the contestants went to an area that was in fact EXTREMELY HAUNTED. However the producers and others involved in the show thought it could be fun to spotlight South America. Not realizing they were in fact dealing with a real haunted location
​
Many miners lost their lives, and I'm banking at least one had the gift of tapping into their Nahual self.
The thought of more than one Nahual genuinely gives me the chills. However it could explain why I'm seeing the Nahual change into different people.
Maybe it's like a legion? A bunch of ghosts without a solitary form anymore, but still retaining the ability to tap into a "guardian spirit".
What I've been able to piece together about a Nahual is that they are meant to be a sort of guardian spirit to one person. What happens though when more than one person is in said body?
(Or maybe a more perverse entity is at work?)
When the contestants went they provoked the resting spirts of the perished miners. Leaving animal parts around and pushing over the cross.
(My guess the only the thing keeping whatever this thing is at bay.)
At the beginning of episode 12 (part 2) the contestants of that group state no one had been back to clean up the safe house. From this I'm inferring no one came back to bless or exorcise the area, and I'm guessing no one has gone back to bless it since.
​
20 years later and we have a pissed off vengeful spirit, that's just been stewing around in a mine...and I had to be the one to go looking for it. The worst part is, I'm pretty sure I found it.
​
​
Two of my friends who were there the night we tried to confront the Nahual have stopped returning my phone calls. One moved away. I'm alone and scared. I hope that I'm just going crazy, and I didn't lure something back that should have stayed in the mines.
