The location was not far from Christmas City Cafe/Tavern. The water in the riverbed was drained about 2 days before at Murdock diversion dam.

The baby had been wrapped in a sheet and weighed down with a large rock likely when the water was still running. The body was too decomposed so the cause of death could be found. She was likely a 7-month fetus and it undetermined if she was born or aborted.

GHOST: Caleuche The Ghost Ship

  

Photo by Tanner Mardis

The Caleuche is a ghost ship in Chile folklore and comes from the island Chiloé. 

One version claims that the crew of the Caleuche is of those who drowned in the sea. These souls are brought to the ship by three Chilote Mythological siblings. The two sisters Sirena Chilota and Pincoya and their brother Pincoy. On the ship, the dead seem to live again as if they never died. The ship will arrive briefly and have the sounds as if there was a party on board. 

Another version of the legend is that the ship appears in the sea of the Chiloé Archipelago and attracts fishermen and sailors. It plays enchanting music that enslaves them to be a part of the crew for eternity. These new crewmembers would forever have a leg folded over their back for eternity.  

Another version of the ship is that it is a magic ship that Warlocks use to have parties and transport their 

goods. It's used by warlocks to improve their magical abilities every three months. The warlocks are only able to reach the ship by summoning caballo marino chilote because Millalobo, king of the seas, prohibited any other people from boarding the ship or getting to it by any other means.
