American Horror Story - Grey Puppy

#Share a very interesting horror story # Horror stories are never just stories

Once upon a time, an American couple on vacation in Mexico wanted to buy a present for their child at the nanny's house when they were heading home.

Sitting in the central plaza of the Mexican market, the couple discussed their son's preferences and ate burritos. Perhaps it was the spice in the air, the smell of grilled chicken was too sweet, and a small gray furry thing approached from his feet.

"Look! That dog is so cute!" His wife threw the meat out of his mouth. After he finished eating, he raised his head and rolled his round eyes.

"And so good." Even the husband couldn't help throwing out a piece of meat.

After the meal, the couple walked into the market, and the cute little thing followed meekly all the way.

In the end, they picked a Mexican hat for their son, and when they were about to leave, the wife crouched down, "I'm really reluctant, this should be a stray dog, right?"

When the husband saw the little thing shaking his head and begging for pity, he couldn't bear it. "Ask the people in the market. If there is no owner, we will take it away."

The wife took it in her arms, walked around the market unclaimed, and finally put it in the box.

Stepping into the house across the border and opening the wooden box, his son was so happy, "How did you know I was looking for a puppy?" He bathed it, brushed it, and even named him Jimmy, officially becoming a member of their family.

The next morning, screams came from their son's room, and the couple rushed into the room, only to find Jimmy foaming at the mouth and limp. They rushed to the veterinary hospital.

The veterinarian asked with a stern expression, "Where did you find it?"

The wife was puzzled, "What happened to our dog?"

"It wasn't a dog, it was a rat, and it was a rat with rabies."

This is obviously a nonsense horror story, but it has been circulating in the United States for a long time. The hidden meaning behind it is the hatred of the United States for illegal immigrants in Mexico. They vilify Mexican illegal immigrants as mice and dogs, allusions to have diseases.

Looking at Chinese and Western horror legends, horror stories are never only horror, it represents what people in an era and culture are afraid of. Just like the legend of ancient ghosts in the East, there are always more female ghosts than male ghosts. It is because of the thousands of years of patriarchal repression, women can only use the retribution after death to stretch the injustice that is nowhere in reality.
