Porto Roc Presents: La Maldicion de Sabor Haunted House

Before Porto Roc, this ground held the spirit of Catalina de la Cocina, a healer-chef whose food carried the voices of her Yoruba and Taíno ancestors.

Her best friend, María de la Ribera; the woman the world has come to know as La Llorona, once came to her doorstep in Villalba, drenched from the Canóvanas River, weeping for the children she drowned.

When Catalina’s fingers brushed the soaked gown, silence fell. The whispers that once guided her hand went still. The ancestors no longer spoke through the sizzle of her pans or the scent of her seasoning. Her sabor died that night— not from lack of flavor but from losing her connection to the ancestors and with it, losing her ability to cook from the soul.

They fled north to El Túnel de Guajataca, hoping to catch the last night train but vanished inside. The train derailed, killing two workers who chased them.

Centuries later, the land that swallowed that fire became Porto Roc. Every business here failed. Not from bad luck or business but from forgetting the ancestors.
