The Chupacabra. A 'vampiric canine' whose very name translates to "goat sucker". But is this millennial cryptid a mange-ridden dog from the US, or is the original, scaly reptilian figure of Puerto Rican folklore the true monster?

In this episode of Krystal Clear Lore, we dive deep into the chilling story of Luis Sanchez, a farmer in Moca who came face-to-face with the hulking, kangaroo-like beast that attacked his livestock. We trace the creature’s history from the 2015 sighting all the way back to the documented exsanguination attacks of 1995 and the earlier terror of the Moca Vampire in the 1970s.

We explore the competing origin theories: was it an extraterrestrial predator , or a failed top-secret government experiment conducted in a US territory? Most shockingly, we review the official Puerto Rican government report that tried to debunk the Chupacabra by claiming that vampires are "too stupid to know where the jugular vein is" —a bizarre argument that raises more questions than it answers. Tune in to separate the documented sightings from the bandwagon-jumping theories and discover the definitive lore of the Chupacabra.
