The Vallecas Case: A True Horror Story That Inspired The Film Veronica
Well there are a few things about this story that make it kind of scary. First of all, real events took place which gave it a sense of authenticity often not seen in some horror movies.
Estefanía Gutiérrez Lázaro was a 18-year-old Spanish girl who died in mysterious circumstances in 1991. Her death has been the subject of much speculation and debate, with some believing that she was the victim of demonic possession, while others believe that her death was caused by a medical condition.
The inspiration for the 2017 Spanish horror film “Veronica” is based upon the story of Estefanía Gutiérrez Lázaro, a 15-year-old girl who died mysteriously in 1991 after using a Ouija board.
While the events which led up to Estefanía’s death are literally just as chilling as the movie was. In the film, they made her character a bit younger.
Back during the year 1991, Estefanía along with her two younger sisters would end up using a Ouija board in an attempt to contact their late grandmother.
When this séance took place, Estefanía claimed that she made contact with a spirit known as “Javier”. The girls were trying to contact their grandmother but remained skeptical.
