A Lucky Rabbit's Foot?


This superstition is an old voodoo legend and, actually, only the left hind foot of a rabbit that was shot or captured in a graveyard during a particular phase of the moon is considered to be lucky.

"Sometimes a man needs another type of faith," said former Tijuana policeman Marcos, who left the city force a year ago after surviving a drug gang attack.

"I was saved when they killed two of my mates. I know why I didn't die." Read More

Creeepy!
