Chupacabras

On this episode of Mythic Existence, host Jack Daly takes the listener to the island of Puerto Rico, where in the 1990s a stealthy, vampiric creature was reported to kill livestock and suck their blood. This creature came to be known as the chupacabra. By the end of this episode, you’ll come to see the tie between the chupacabra and the United States’ dark legacy of imperialism, and that the origin of the chupacabra came from somewhere you might not expect.
