ORIGIN: New Orleans, Louisiana.
This infamous urban legend has been whispered among locals for generations, especially around the remote, desolate stretch known as Grunch Road, located on the outskirts of the city.
The road is said to lead deep into the woods, where only few dare to venture, especially after dark.
According to legend, those who drive down this isolated path may encounter a strange creature— the Grunch.
The Grunch is often described as a goat-like human like creature with leathery skin, sharp claws, glowing eyes, and a foul stench.
Some versions say it is just like the chupacabra, known for draining the blood of livestock and unfortunate victims.
Others claim it has a demonic appearance, with horns and a hunched, animalistic walking pattern.
The creature is believed to deceive travelers by mimicking the cries of a distressed child or an injured animal.
Those who stop to help quickly realize their mistake when the Grunch emerges from its hiding spot to attack.
Over the years, many reports of mutilated animals and strange sightings have fueled belief in the creature.
However, many people prefer to regard the Grinch as a superstition.
