I think this could be true, that the Spanish brought the story to Mexico way back when, because it seems that the story was told in various places, but another version I found originated with the Aztecs and their empire eventually covered quite a large portion of Mexico, so descendants and immigrants alike would have carried on this tradition of telling such a frightening story to keep children away from riverbanks, etc. so they would stay safe, like a boogey man story.
