THE CHAPEL OF CHRIST, PIRATE ROBERTO COFRESI, CHUPA CABRA LEGEND.

The Island of "Borinquen", the given name of the Island called Puerto Rico, a time were Taino people ruled their land. As it stands today, the name is deeply rooted in the souls and spirit of every living Puerto-Rican. Perhaps forgotten for some, but well-kept in the hearts for others. Yes, Los Taino's, our people who invoked the tell-tales accounts. The celebrations of ritual ceremonies and legends perhaps might seem far-fetched from the real truth. But to many it remains a testament of valor, honor and respect. The Folk-Tale legends and stories repeatedly heard in successions through History Books, the infamous fall over the City Wall that ended a young life of a Horse rider named Baltazar Montanez.

This tiny island and those who inhabit it, but yet so engulfed into the richest culture in the Caribbean, reaching from as far east of Fajardo, to as far west of Quebradillas. So embellished in every corner, surrounded by lushy palms. But Legends of stories some considered to be true, but others unquestionable is what truly brings out the embodiment of "La Cultura".

The most feared Puerto Rican Pirate, Roberto Cofresi" who made his fortune by looting the treasure ships throughout the Atlantic Ocean. Once a loyal licensed corsair for the Monarchy of Spain. Roberto Cofresi once dominated the ocean waters by targeting and looting treasure fleets from European ships. For many islanders he became a true hero who shared his entire fortune with the most needed who loved and adored Roberto Cofresi as one of their own.

The Tell-tale Chupa-Cabra, "Goat-sucking goat who terrorized many towns in Puerto Rico, including South America and Mexico. The foreseen moment of truth when the National Geographic got so involved with the story at first glance, with all the drama and suspense, but yet failed in all efforts to deliver the truth behind "El Chupa Cabra". The overriding concern on neighbors in Puerto Rico shifted as they vowed never to entrust rumors on Grotesque monsters sucking the blood of chickens scattered through the mountains of Puerto Rico.
