Gets on your goat!

-

Back in 1995, stories of a blooddrink­ing monster began to circulate in South America. This vampiric monster broke into farms, draining the blood from goats and chickens. First known as the Goatsucker, it later became famous as the Chupacabra. Described as a humanoid figure with small wings, claws like a bird and a long, pointed beak, the Chupacabra was apparently beyond capture by the local police, leaping over 10-foot fences and seemingly disappeari­ng into thin air. Researcher­s into vampire lore found that legends of the Chupacabra went back hundreds of years. Modern investigat­ors had linked the creature with UFO phenomena, but the older myths identified the monster as the Lobishomen, a vampire-entity from Brazil. This abominatio­n took the form of a monkey-like being, who preyed on the blood of humans and animals, mostly farm variety.
