In this episode, Phil and Travis delve into the legend of the Chupacabra, a strange cryptid that is said to inhabit parts of the Americas. The episode begins with a brief overview of the history and legend of the Chupacabra, which began in the mid-1990s with reports of a strange, hairless creature attacking and killing livestock in Puerto Rico. The Chupacabra's physical appearance is described as a small, hairless creature with spikes or spines running down its back, around three to four feet tall, and with a head similar to that of a reptile. The legend has since spread to other parts of the Americas, including Mexico and the United States, where the creature is often described as feeding on the blood of livestock and attacking pets and small animals.

They explore various theories about the Chupacabra, including the possibility that it is a previously undiscovered species or a genetic experiment gone wrong. The episode also examines some of the reported sightings of the Chupacabra, including the Vampire Beast of Brazil and the Texas Chupacabra, which turned out to be a coyote with mange.

The show acknowledges that some skeptics argue that the Chupacabra sightings are simply the result of hoaxes and pranks, while others suggest that misidentification or wildlife diseases could be the reason for some of these sightings. However, the podcast leaves the mystery of the Chupacabra unsolved, acknowledging that despite extensive efforts to capture or study the creature, there has been no conclusive evidence of its existence.
