  • “Maybe their maraca player is a chupacabra,” I offered. —  RustyNail
  • My favorite stories are the bigfoot, loch ness monster, chupacabra-type encounters, but I also enjoy the discoveries of new species. —  Cryptomundo
  • I don't really believe or have time for other cryptids and think chupacabra is silly at best. —  Cryptomundo
  • What I least need from this site is updates on more Fortean creatures, such as Mothman, el chupacabra, and yes, the Beast of Bray road. —  Cryptomundo
  • The premise is fairly straightforwar: the show picks a topic-the blood-sucking chupacabra, for example-and then spends 44 minutes (without commercials) delving into creature legends, eyewitness accounts, reenactments, CG monster renditions, grainy home video, and typically a research team of experts who venture into the beastie's alleged domain, setting up camera traps and hunting for footprints, all in order to hopefully snag a bit of proof. —  digitallyOBSESSED.com DVD News and Reviews
