The Yellow Moon Filled the Sky Tonight! Watch Out for the Chupacabras!

As my husband and I were driving home tonight, the full yellow moon filled the Dallas sky! It was so close, we could almost touch it. I took this picture just to show you how close, big and yellow it was. I decided to check the internet and it says it is the Wolf Moon.

The Wolf Moon is a full moon that occurs in January. Its name comes from hungry wolf packs that would howl outside the villages of Native Americans. This full moon is also known as the Old Moon or the Moon After Yule.

According to Native American/Mexican American folklore, now is the time that wolves howl at the moon. Pregnant women cannot walk outside during a Wolf Moon, otherwise their children are destined to become chupacabra. Brrrrr. Makes you shiver, just to think about it. The Good News? It's only a folklore!

Chupacabras in Texas

The internet is abuzz with Chupacabra sightings in Hood County in Texas. This week, a pair of chupcabras were found on a Hood County ranch.

A Hood County Rancher heard growling sounds coming from inside his barn. When he went to inspect the sounds, he found a pair of ugly creatures which resembled Chupacabras.

He ran back to his house, found his shotgun, then shot them. Later he called animal control and an officer arrived at the scene.

The animals were so ugly even the officer described the creatures as appearing to be the legendary chupacabras. Chupacabras are said to be mythical creatures. Seeing is believing. Look at the pictures. They look like Chupacabras to me!
