The first reported attacks ocurred in March 1995 in Puerto Rico. In this attack, eight sheep were discovered dead, each with three puncture wounds in the chest area and completely drained of blood. A few months later, in August, an eyewitness, Madelyne Tolentino, reported seeing the creature in the Puerto Rican town of Canovanas, when as many as 150 farm animals and pets were reportedly killed. in 1975, similar killings in the small town of moca. were attributed to El vampiro de Moca. Initially it was suspected that the killing were comitted by a satanic cult.
Puerto Rican comedian and entrepeneur Silverio Perez is credited with coining the term chupacabras soon after the first incidents were reported in the press. Shortly after the first reported incidents in Puerto Rico, other animal deaths were reported in other countries such as the Dominican Republic, Argentina, Bolivia, Chile, Colombia, Honduras, El Salvador, Nicaragua, Panama, Peru, Brazil, United States, Mexico and Venezuela.

The Headless Horseman.
The legend of the Headless Horseman begins in Sleepy Hollow, New York. The horseman was a Hessian of unknown rank; one of many such hired to suppress the American Reavolutionary War. During the war, the Horseman was one of 548 Hessians killed in a battle for Chatterton Hill, wherein his head was severed by a cannonball. He was buried in a graveyard outside a church. Thereafter he appears as a ghost, who presents to nightly travelers an actual dangr (rather than the largely harmless fright produced by the majority of ghosts), presumably of decapitation. Now he headless horseman is one legend in around the world.
