In 1975,  the chupacabras first gained attention when there was rash of dead farm animals in Puerto Rico.  Since then,  the creature has allegedly been spotted in the Caribbean, Mexico, Central America, Chile, Argentina, Florida, Arizona and Texas.

The Chupacabras is described as being three to five feet in height with black eyes or red or orange glowing eyes.  It has sharp fangs and short forearms with three-fingered claw-like hands.  Chupacabras means “the goat sucker”.

Paramormal writer Stephen Wagner relates this account of a chupacabras attack.  The panicked cries of his chickens woke up a farmer in the middle of the night.  He checked on the chickens and found several dead ones.  In the middle of the carnage stood a chupacabras.

In the 1990’s eight sheep were found dead, each drained of its blood. The attacks have increased and have become more bizarre.  The chupacabras mystery continues.
