A mysterious volcanic crater, believed to be an alien landing site and home to a Loch Ness Monster-like creature, has been discovered in Rincón de Parangueo, Mexico.
Accessible only through a 1,640-foot-long tunnel, visitors crouch through this stone passageway, emerging into a large crater surrounded by mountains and green vegetation.
Local legends speak of the crater as a landing spot for alien spacecraft and mention sightings of a creature akin to the Loch Ness Monster.
The crater, housing water varying from lake-sized to puddle-like, displays a unique phenomenon.

Depending on rainfall levels, the water may turn red during certain times of the year. Locals associate the red hue with a bad omen, tied to a legend of a man’s death in the tunnel, suggesting a supernatural link.
However, scientifically, the red water results from a lack of oxygenation.
Despite the explanation, paranormal beliefs persist, and numerous reports of supernatural events continue.
