Maco Pempén
A well-known street character in Santo Domingo during the Trujillo dictatorship. He was said to be so hideous that pregnant women avoided looking at him, fearing that he would cause their babies to be born with deformities (Rafael Trujillo was a dictator who ruled from 1930 to 1961).
Anyone who actually saw Maco Pempén is more than 50 years old.
