The Chrighton Leprechaun gained viral fame in 2006 through a local news report in Mobile, Alabama, which featured amateur footage capturing what some claimed to be a leprechaun in a tree. The video sparked widespread debate and amusement, with viewers speculating about the creature's existence and authenticity. The footage featured interviews with residents who described seeing a leprechaun, leading to a surge in interest and humorous interpretations of the event, as well as sparked what could be a very real mystery. The Chrighton Leprechaun remains a quirky and enduring phenomenon, but some say it is the textbook example of mass hysteria and the power of suggestion.
