The Mud Volcano

An hour away from Cartagena, Colombia, is a 15 meters high mound, El Totumo, popular for its alleged healing mudbath. According to local lore, the volcano used to spew fire, lava, and ashes, but it was turned into mud by a local priest who believed it was the work of the Devil, and ensued to banish him by sprinkling holy water into it.
