In this episode of Real Unexplained Stories, we explore one of Britain’s strangest cryptid legends: the Owlman of Cornwall.

First reported near Mawnan Church in Cornwall, the Owlman has been described as a terrifying winged figure with owl-like features, glowing eyes, and a human-shaped body. Some say it was a misidentified bird. Others believe something far stranger was seen in the shadows above the churchyard.

From eerie eyewitness accounts to the mystery surrounding Mawnan Smith, this episode looks at the chilling stories behind the Owlman and why this Cornish legend still unsettles people decades later.

Was it a giant owl, a local myth, or one of the UK’s most disturbing cryptid encounters?
