Following the reports of mutilated farm animals in Puerto Rico, eyewitnesses began coming forward to describe the predator. Said to have glowing red eyes, the face of a gargoyle and the wings of a vampire bat, the culprit was named El Chupacabras, 'The Goat Sucker', by the press. Quickly, the creature made the leap to parts of the U.S. and Latin America. Some say it's simply the public's imagination running amuck. Others say the creature is a genetic experiment that escaped, a space alien, or a supernatural being.
