Welcome back to the Ghost Bunny podcast. I'm your host, Bridget Markort, with a brand new episode for you guys. This week, my guest is Jonathan Perez. Jonathan Perez is a full-time content creator, gamer, and TTRPG enthusiasts. I had to look up what that meant because I didn't know. It is tabletop role-playing games. Most of you probably already knew that,

but I didn't. So for those of you who are like me, there you go. Born in 1993 in Ensenada,

Baja, California, and raised in Seattle, Washington from 1998 onward, he created Latinos against

spooky shit on TikTok, blending cultural humor and the supernatural.

Now he's focused on building an inclusive community for gaming, laughs, and all things

as spooky.

Jonathan embraces his culture and Mexican heritage to bring satirical comedy to all things

that go bump in the night.

And I cannot wait to talk to him today about Mexican folklore, the supernatural,

and ghost stories. Jonathan, thank you so much for doing the show today. Absolutely. I'm excited

to be on here. Thank you so much for the invite. Yes. So I talked about a little bit in the bio,

but like I really wanted to do, and I've told you this already, but just for the listeners,

I really wanted to do a Cinco de Mayo themed episode. And I know a lot of people have like come

down on me before about celebrating Cinco de Mayo. I absolutely love it. I look at it as a time to just

celebrate Mexican culture. Sure. Like I mentioned to you beforehand, the food, the people, the music,

the everything. I think it's just like a good time to like celebrate it. I know it's not Mexican

Independence Day. I know that everybody doesn't celebrate it. I know that it was a small battle

back in like the late 1800s where the, um, where a small town in Mexico beat the French. I know that's all that it was. That's very good, very good research. Like so many people don't know even that much. So that's, you're off to a great start. Well, I know that much because I, I love, I really truly love celebrating Cinco de Mayo and I've gotten flat from it before. Like, you don't even know what that means. It's not Mexican independence

and stuff. And I'm like, no, I do know what it means. But that doesn't mean that I can't use it to celebrate it the way I want to celebrate it. So anyway, I thought this was a great time to talk about all the Mexican ghost stories. Well, not all of them. I'm sure there's a million I don't want to But just like some of the cultural stuff is totally different.

The folklore is different.

And I really want to... all of them. I'm sure there's a million I don't know. But just like some of the cultural stuff is

totally different. The folklore is different. And I really wanted to kind of dive into that
