The first Stanley Yelnats, an ancestor of the protagonist in "Holes" by Louis Sachar, was cursed by a fortune teller named Madame Zeroni after failing to fulfill a promise to her. This curse brought bad luck to his family for generations. The story reveals that his misfortunes were tied to his inability to carry Madame Zeroni up a mountain to drink from a special spring, which ultimately impacts his descendants, including the main character, Stanley Yelnats IV. The curse is only broken when Stanley helps his friend Zero, paralleling the actions of his ancestor.
