Silampa
A figure from Panamanian folklore, a female spirit who wanders through forests and mountains seducing men to drain their life. Legend says she emits a high-pitched sound that is misleading: if it sounds distant, she is actually close by, and if it sounds close, she is far away. (She is typically described as a ghostly, white, sheet-like figure).
"Don't talk to the little girl about the Silampa, or she won't be able to sleep" : "I was going to tell him the story of the Silampa, but he didn't know it"
