The Chupacabra interview

[graflok]

Here is an interesting transcript of interviews with chupacabra witnesses.

This is in regards to the original chupa creatures first reported in Puerto Rico.
Other strange animals have since been reported and called chupacabras, such
as the dog-like animals in Texas, but those are completely different animals
(though weird in their own right).

The original chupacabra is quite a strange creature that walks upright and hops
and apparently has some flying ability. It has self luminous eyes and a
series of long spikes along its back.

What is interesting about this interview to me is that it reveals a number of
characteristics common to creatures described in folklore from many cultures
and thought to be subterranean in origin: luminous eyes, strong foul odor,
flying ability but not via flapping wings, robotic movements as if remotely
controlled, vampirism and even an aversion to iron.

What do think these creatures are, Graflok?

[graflok]

I think they're one type of what we call demons.

There are many types described in the folklore of different cultures but they all
pretty much boil down to being ugly little critters that serve more powerful
entities such as the Sumerian Annunaki.

They're also often described in folklore as being created by their masters which I
take to mean that they were either genetically engineered or may even be robots
or possibly a combination of the two.

In one case a man was being victimized by something that was killing his
animals and he hid out one night to try to kill it. During the night a chupacabra
showed up and he hit the thing with a machete. He said the impact made a
sound as if he'd hit a drum and the thing ran off unhurt.

That sounds to me like it was something a bit out of the ordinary. ;)

KALIKANTZAROI, THE CHRISTMAS SPRITES

Kalikantzari, or the Christmas Sprites, are small blackish and hairy creatures, with long arms and tail, who reside in the bowels of the earth. With a big saw, they compete to cut down the huge wooden stake which holds the earth in place. But the column is very thick and the sawing seems to go on forever.

Right before Christmas, however, they almost accomplish their mission and the column seems ready to fall. Overjoyed by their almost successful effort, but also fearful that the earth will topple over on their heads, they rush to the top to bother and annoy the people.

Thousands of these creatures come up to the surface from every hole or crack they can find. However, they are very much afraid of the light, so they hide during the day. But at night - that's when they strike! As soon as it's dark, they scramble from their hiding places to taunt and menace people. Because they are small, some even very tiny, they can get into the homes through chimneys, keyholes, even from the little cracks on windows and doors.

They enjoy lollygagging around in places like oil vats, frying pans, oily pots and dishes, and they really get a kick out of soiling food with their filthy fingernails and leaving their excrement all over the place. About the only good thing that can be said about these nasty pests is that they never steal anything - oh, but what a mess!

Their name comes from the adjective, kalos, meaning good, and kantharos, the word for beetle. The beginning of the myth regarding the Christmastide Sprites can be found in ancient times. The people of that time believed that when the souls in Hades found the door open they would come up to our world and make the rounds among people without any restrictions.

Much later the Byzantines celebrated with music, song and masquerading. Because the people hid their faces they were shameless and behaved boldly. They would bother people on the street, and go into the homes uninvited, pestering the people by continuously asking for sausages and sweets. The homeowners would slam the doors and shut the windows, but the persistent masqueraders would always find a point of entry - like coming down the chimney.

All this activity would occur during the 12 days of Christmas and on the Epiphany. Then, after the big sanctification all would become calm again as the people settled back down into their normal routine.

Today, the Kalikantzaroi disappear during the celebration of the lights, after the waters are blessed by the priests. As those pesky little creatures depart, you can hear them saying: "Leave we shall, because the crazy priest has arrived with his incense burner and his holy water sprinkler . . ."

Possible Chupacabra? VIDEO (http://www.alienvideo.net/video-chupacabra.php)...or hoax?


:confused:

[graflok]

I'm skeptical of that vid, tinny.

The subject has the feel of an animation to me and I think the lighting looks suspicious.

[tinmenace]

Yeah, I found it weird how they would be video taping it from back there. If it was genuine, why not go IN with the camera? That seems more like a normal thing to do.

I may have missed it, but have you seen any footage that you think is worth considering?

[graflok]

Nope. No footage of a chupa that I've seen.

There are some good still images of those strange dog-like animals in Texas.
Those do seem to be creatures from "outside our biosphere" but they don't
fit the descriptions of the original chupacabras.
