Lore
Cegua is a vengeful spirit in Nicaraguan folklore, a beautiful woman who offers rides to unfaithful men, then reveals a horse's skull face to terrify or punish them with madness or death. She haunts roads at night, targeting womanizers as retribution for infidelity. The legend serves as a moral warning about fidelity and respect in relationships, blending colonial and indigenous elements. Cegua embodies female vengeance and the dangers of lust, a cautionary figure in Central American oral traditions.
