Kraken Cans Cast: Cryptids, Urban Legends, and All Things Spooky
Ep. 65 The Cursed Whistler of the Plains: El Silbón
This week, the boys crack a cold one and head deep into the windswept plains of Venezuela and Colombia to uncover one of Latin America’s most chilling legends — El Silbón, “The Whistler.”
Spoiled since birth, a man’s unchecked rage and horrific crime against his own father lead to an eternal curse — doomed to wander the earth carrying a sack of bones and announcing his presence with a haunting whistle. But beware: the louder it sounds, the safer you are… the quieter it gets, the closer he is.
Corey and Mike dig into the many versions of this story — from drunken revenge to twisted family secrets — and debate what El Silbón really is: a restless spirit, an ancient god of the wind, or just the ghostly echo of the Llanos themselves. Along the way, they share a terrifying Reddit encounter, talk about the moral lessons hidden in the legend, and current pop culture.
Go crack a beer and get ready for the Whistler!
