Literally translated to goat sucker, the Chupacabra is a legend that originated in Puerto Rico but spread throughout all of Latin America.
Images captured by Jam Press have spread like wildfire throughout the southern countries and sparked rumors that the creature is on the move.
The grainy video was taken by a drone that captured what appears to be an idyllic rural scene with rows of crops laid out before impressive mountains.
However, the scene changes when the video zooms in on a foreboding figure that appears to crouch while standing on two legs.
The haunting clip comes after pictures of a mangled goat that was killed in Mexico already made the rounds online last month.
The horned creature had its eyeballs ripped out with slash marks across its throat, which locals say could be a clear sign of a chupacabra attack.
Jenni Silvia Pardo posted the discovery on Facebook and said that she found the goat completely lifeless a day after it was walking around perfectly fine.
However, online critics countered that it appeared to have been there for several days which would explain its terrifying state.

Another person commented that the jaguarundi, which is a wild cat, will usually eat the soft parts of dead animals such as the eyes and the tongue.
Legend has it that the chupacabra specifically targets goats when looking to suck the blood from livestock.
Rumors of the creature stem from a series of livestock killings in the small town of Moca, Puerto Rico, in 1975.
Locals believed that a Satanic cult were using the animals as ritualistic sacrifices, but the issue spread throughout the island.
In 1995, the first-ever eyewitness reported seeing a large kangaroo-like creature with reptilian features such as scales and massive red eyes.
Terrified Puerto Ricans linked the sighting to the deaths of uneaten livestock that had been found dead, thus the name chupacabra was coined.
Since then, sightings have been reported all over North and South America and even in far east countries like Russia.
Another carcass that washed up on the shores of South Carolina was even linked to the chupacabra due to its telling injuries.
