The body of a Chupacabra?

In North Texas the sightings of possible Chupacabra's have, it seems, rocketed within the past few days. Over the course of three days two unidentified animals have been killed which have a strong resemblance to the (supposedly) mythical creature that sucks the blood of goats  and (according to myth) can eat human babies, not to mention the countless sightings and encounters of these creatures in these region of Texas. Animal control officers are even confused as to what this creature could be. Is it the real thing? Have we just found undeniable prove that these creatures do exist? Or is it a rather ugly looking dog?

Here's a link to an article on this news.

Attack of the Mutant Animals!

No it's not a 1950s communist-fearing sci-fi film, I'm talking about the sudden abundance of freakishly mutated animals. Added today (here's a link)to the quickly increasing list of mutant pests was this five legged frog which a dog walker spotted. Along with the two headed cow and the 12 fingered/toed child are we seeing a rise in mutants? Could this be the start of a mutant animal outbreak? Hopefully.

This strange occurrence is nothing new however and freaky animals have been recorded before records began (yes, that makes no sense.) So, ladies and gentlemen, here is a list of the best and most famous freaky mutated animals. I present to you the Circus of the Freaky Mutated Creatures...

Oh and NONE of these are photo-shopped in any way. They're the real deal.


1) The Winged Cat - and not just one odd feline either. There's been well over 20 off these creatures. Very strange. How the hell does this happen! Must be something to do with the genes. Unless of course they're parents were naughty pussies.Check out the Wikipedia page for a whole list of them!

2) The Featherless Chicken - Not all mutations are natural or the product of a freak accident. Some are purposefully altered such as the Featherless Chicken which was breed not to just look ugly, but to make it easier to prepare for eating.
Think about it - how macabre could you get.

3) Two Headed Turtle- Born in a Pennsylvanian Aquarium, this little turtle was born with two heads at either end of it's shell, yet only had one pair of back feet and one tail. Teenage Mutant Ninja Conjoined Twin Turtles!

4) Two Faced Star - No, I'm not talking about celebrities! This is a genuine cow with two faces on one head.  Born in Virginia  has THREE sets of teeth and two tongues. Most freaky of all though is that the cow has only one eye socket in the middle of it's head...with two eyes in!

Urban Legend 1: The Drip

Ladies and Gentlemen and everyone else, here at the Circus of the Freaky Urban Legends are the staple diet for the demons that dwell in the darkness. Everyone loves to hear them, even if they may not be totally true, they still have the power to send shivers up the spines of listeners, especially on a cold, stormy night. Every legend has a beginning.

So, grab your safety blanket as we kick off with the very first Circus Of The Freaky Urban Legend. Below are three well known modern Legends, each of which share two things in common; an old lady and a dog. Nothing creepy about that, I hear you squeal.

The first one is an Urban Legend I like to call "The Old Woman and the Dripping Dog"

Urban Legend 2: Hot Dog!

Now, you rotten scumbags, time for the next dog/OAP related spook story. This one I call "Hot Dog"....

A rather old lady, around the age of 60, offered to look after her daugter's new puppy, whilst she went out with her husband to see their young sons perform in their school's play. The house is empty and there's nothing on TV, so, the woman has an idea; let's take the dog for a walk! Why not? Why not, indeed.

Urban Legend 3: Alone With The Dogs

In a similar way to the first story, this Legend focuses on an OAP who has recently lost her husband. And like that story, she too had dog companionship. However, unlike the first, she had more than one dog, in fact she had several.

Well, this story takes place during the summer holiday (early August). The woman's only son's family have gone off on holiday for a month (to Spain where the wife's family live) and asked their neighbour (their only neighbour) to look after her, in case anything should happen. This goes to plan for the first few days as the neighbour constantly checks on the old lady to see how she's coping, etc. But it doesn't last too long, and VERY quickly the neighbour stops visiting. So, the OAP is forced to do everything herself, despite her restrictive old body. A few nights later, the old woman is struggling to step out of the bath. It has a raised edge to it and she is unable to lift her legs up high enough to step over this edge. So, obviously, she struggles, slips and trips cracking her back against the floor tiles. Perhaps it was her old age, or maybe she had broken her already weak neck/spine as she fell, but she was completely paralysed and unable to move from the neck down. Her screams of pain caused the dogs to come rushing up to the bathroom door and begin scratching at it.

Real zombie animals

Roll up, roll up for the first ever (non-introductory) post on the Circus of the Freaky blog. And what a way to kick it all off.

Whether or not you're prepared for the inevitable zombie apocalypse (if you're not prepared, well, good luck with that), zombies have ripped and torn it's way into pop culture like never before. With what appears to be a never-ending stream of books, games, films, music, clothes, gadgets, gizmo's, and other such zombie themed mumbo jumbo, it's undeniable proof that the zombies have taken over. Don’t get me wrong, the Freak is the biggest zombie fan you’re likely to meat. In fact, I’m currently building an army of those undead flesh-eaters from Hell, but that’s just our little secret. Got it?

So, below are three, apparently, real videos of zombie animals!

Up first we have the re-animated zombie dog's head, along with some very much alive inner organs. It's reportedly footage of a 1956 Soviet experiment by a certain Russian who goes by the name of Sergei S. Bryukhonenko, one of the most prolific characters in regard to open-heart surgery in Russia. What do you think? Real or fake? Is it really alive?




It’s a dog life. But what about cats? Who would like to see a cat running without a brain? Who wouldn’t want to see a cat running without a brain?! Here’s another macabre experiment involving a ‘dead’ moggy seemingly running on a treadmill after it had it’s brains scooped out of its skull. Pretty freaky stuff indeed. But perhaps the biggest worry is whether this proves that uncle Romero was wrong? Would destroying the brain actually (re)kill a zombie?




And finally, this one isn't of the experimental/evil-scientist-with-a-little-too-much-time-on-his-hands video. It is instead a filleted, skinned, headless zombie fish (straight from the local supermarket) flapping around on the counter. Is this one a fake? A sign of the apocalypse? Or a very odd sex toy?
