In 1995, the town of Canóvanas became the epicenter of the Chupacabra legend after dozens of livestock were found dead, their blood reportedly drained. Witnesses described a strange, reptilian creature with spikes along its back stalking the outskirts of town. These chilling reports triggered a wave of sightings across Puerto Rico, securing Canóvanas as the birthplace of one of the world’s most famous cryptid mysteries.
