An OAP has been found dead in her home with her head apparently devoured, sparking fears she could have been killed by a mythical Chupacabra.
The body of María Vicenta Carrasco was found lying on her back in her home
The 80-year-old’s head appeared to have been eaten.
But there were bizarrely no traces of blood anywhere in the room, according to reports.
Doors to the pensioner’s home, in Cerro Bonito, Honduras, had also been left open.
The elderly victim’s body was found by neighbours, with local media suggesting it could only be the work of Chupacabra.

They are mythical beasts who suck the blood of their victims.
Forensic experts arrived on the scene to start the investigation and remove the victim’s remains for post-mortem analysis.
The National Police have confirmed that they are investigating the woman’s mysterious death and have not ruled out the possibility of violence by a third party.
Chupacabras are said to drink the blood of livestock, terrorising local farmers and agricultural workers throughout South America.
There have been numerous alleged sightings of Chupacabra in the Americas since the 1970s, including as far north as Maine in the US and as far south as Chile.
However, all reported sightings have been disregarded as anecdotal and lacking evidence.
In October, hunters claimed they killed Chupacabra in the woods in Guia Lopes da Laguna, Brazil.
