Mary SIDA y otras agresoras fatales en el folclore internáutico: enfermedad, miedo y mito / Mary AIDS and other fatal aggressive women in the internatic folklore: disease, fear and myth
Keywords:
urban legends, internet, AIDS’s folklore, succubi.Abstract
Although the urban legend's versions of «Mary AIDS» and its sequels are mainly transmitted through the new molds for the digital era (blogs, social networks, applications cross- platform messaging as WhatsApp and websites like YouTube), if it deepens in the territories of the oral and written literature, myth, History and the press notes that its content is much more traditional than we might imagine. Between parallels mentioned here, among others, an episode of the Gesta Romanorum, a Breton ballad of the Middle Ages, a popular tale of the Ozarks and a tale by Guy de Maupassant. Furthermore, it's linked here the protagonists of these stories with characters like the serranas of Spanish popular ballads and creatures as lamias, nymphs and succubi of different traditions, cultures and periods of time.
