Assombrado means Haunted, yes. Recife é is the name of my city, is a coast
city, and the beachs have very nice arrecifes (reefs) on it. We have one (if
not the one) of the best urban beaches in world (bite me, Rio. :)). [ppl
THINK that Recife comes from Arrecifes, but nobody can really claim it for
sure, the name of the city is then, one mistery on itself.]
O Recife Assombrado is a website that deals with the haunted places of the
city, and around it. :) Very cool stuff. :) Recife is close to Olinda,
and both are almost "twin cities". But once in the past, Recife overshadow
Olianda and became the capital of Pernambuco. With about 400 years old,
Recife have pretty nice ghost stories lying around, and some of the most
important battles in Brazil history have been happened around here. :)
Yeah, i love my dirty old and dark city. :)
Some pictures of it:

Recife have about 5.000.000 habs. Is a nice number. :)
High criminality on its peripherical "bairrios". Its "bairros" in portuguese
actually. What i call in english? Neightborhoods?
Anyway...daughter os what? Ummo are not some ET related stuff?
Brazil have a famous case, about something ppl called "chupa-capra", but
that was far from here.

That's a cool name for a website, from an English view
the words seem exotic and ominous and I have no idea
what they mean in Portuguese.
I know this falls a little outside of ghosts and
apparations, but do you know anything about the
Daughters of Ummo?
