“El Cuco has always been what parents threaten their children with, in order to get them to behave. My theory is that he's a physical manifestation of the very limits of a parent's control over their children. It is he they turn to when they no longer have any influence. And in calling him, they had the power over to him.” — Ann Dávila Cardinal
