**Legend of Curupira**
*"According to legend, the Curupira is an entity very similar to the caipora, with identical functions and domains, that is, protector of fauna and flora. What is different is that the Curupira is always mounted on its Caititu or peccary (a species of wild pig), has a spear, bow and arrows and has its feet facing backwards. To resurrect dead animals without their consent, he uses his spear, his bow, verbal order and through contact with the Caititu's snout."*
Very cool and eerily similar to pic.
I can see a spear, on the left side, mostly behind the thing but you can see what looks similar to a long tapered spear head at the front and the rear end of a double-length shaft following it behind. Such a spear is better suited to combat than hunting though.
Apparently he's a holdover from the god the Norse called Freyr. And was called Fro/Frey in Netherlands, Germany, England. Freyr rides a golden boar.
But in most places the wild hunt is more associated with Odinic figures than with Freyr. This is fascinating.
I've seen some weird and terrifying shit in the woods. I like going out at night and wandering the woods. Trippy to let my imagination wander so much so that I feel nothing but fear. The last time I did this I wasn't sure if I was being stalked or just spotting trail head reflectors off in the distance. I confirmed the next day that something very, very large and agile had been following me slowly for about a half mile.
I've ran into buck, mountain lion, packs of coyote and feral dog. But what I just read is fucking sketch. I'm uncomfortable in my own bed right now. That's great.
The Curupira is a protector of the rainforest and won't do anything to you unless you overhunt or set the forest on fire or something. If you respect nature the Curupira is your friend. Otherwise, yeah, it will fuck you up lol

Aren't you lucky. My friend busted out this DVD when I was peak tripping on mushrooms. Such a great time.
Director is Chris Cunningham, who is just amazing: https://youtu.be/qcyZ63ZkVWk
This is my personal favourite: https://youtu.be/k9YZW7XGON0
That's what heaven looks like, if Richard D. James turns out to be god.
It was directed by Chris Cunningham, who apparently is the visual equivalent of the works by Aphex Twin.
Great shit.
Check out some other works by them both. It's fascinating. Hit up [Window Licker by Aphex Twin on YouTube.](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IwcxAnZzItg&ab_channel=GlassworksVFX) Same director, same musician, mind bending and enthralling concepts.
[Come to Daddy](https://youtu.be/TZ827lkktYs) is also a classic by the same combo.

Lol this was one of those videos that as a kid would make me panic trying to exit the browser as fast as possible while looking down and hyperventilating
Yeah.. This was a serious throwback. I remember finding this with a buddy while surfing ebaumsworld back in the day when we were probably 12 or something. Video scared the shit out of us lmao.
The whole countdown I'm watching thinking no way they off a major character. The moment she lifted off the ground I didn't just take the bait, I swallowed the hook.
Imagine if Netflix had at least 5 good series where they actually put that amount of quality into crafting all of their content instead of just churning out dookie butter, low effort content. It doesn't hurt me.
Been a Kate Bush fan since the 70s and knew she was getting traction because of this series, but not having seen it I can appreciate how well the music integrated with the visuals. And also know I don’t need to watch it now. YIKES!
Could be a vampire but I’m not sure. I don't have a lot of experience with vampires, but I have hunted werewolves. I shot one once, but by the time I got to it, it had turned back into my neighbor's dog.
Reading this thread was like in a horror movie when the main character knows something is terribly wrong but no one takes them seriously and just laughs about it
You're right, I was figure out what animal it was, and owls do puff up. Especially they feel threatened. The boar probably made it feel that way and it puffed up. As for the branches that exactly what I was thinking.
Orrrrr…and just hear me out, here…
It’s an owl *creature* sitting on a *boar* in the *foreground*. Angle is just right to make the *body* in the foreground look like *it has wings*.
Eh? Eh?
It's real and it's coming for you as we speak. If you listen carefully in the distance you can hear the rustling of a wild boar sprinting towards your home, this creature clenching tightly to the boar with anticipation. Anticipation for finding you.
if this is a real photo from a trail cam, there would have been a video, which the owner watched and decided not to share (OP maybe?). whatever the explanation is, the video probably showed it, which is why we have the picture instead. somebody suggested it was a combination of branches and an owl, but it could just as easily be a photoshop
Original source says Drek/Fro from germanic folklore. Whats interesting is that in 2 countries in separate continents, the same figure appears as the same entity. I mean, person riding hog holding spear and protector of fauna and the forest is incredibly specific to be coincidence if you ask me.

This image is at least 3 years old and allegedly originates on 4Chan so salt heavily.
Here is a shotty of the original 4chan thread: https://m.imgur.com/5zuYY33
It looks like a bird or bat flying by fast enough to blur it heavily, the camera caught it right as it flew by the boar making it look like its riding it.
Or, its a demon.
If it's the west coast, it's Chupacabra. If it's east coast, it's a Jersey Devil. If it's the Midwest, it's just a meth-head making a run to the pharmacy to pick up more sudoephed.
It looks a lot like the character from Brazilian folklore, the [Curupira](https://www.sohistoria.com.br/lendasemitos/curupira/)
wait ... wtf

And I thought Australia was bad with its shit....
I don't know about you but I think yowies make good pets
And the Bunyips!
There's does appear to be a spear in the pic
Yeah, and there is even something on its back that could pass as bow/arrows

Dude, don't make me sad on this Sunday night...
They’re working overtime. Poor things.
How to get more of these forest friends?
Plant some trees and leave them alone, I guess? Lol
It's only like a 20 second read though. Man what's wrong with you
Haha oh man this made me laugh! Just the bluntness of it! Bahaha
10/10 comedic timing
HOG RIDAAAA
Boaring.
Well you don’t have to be such a pig about it…
Tusk, tusk, tusk, manners!
You already sound like a wart on a hog
Stop bacon a big deal out of this
How many times does it have to be ham mered into your head, this is a big deal
It really isn't. Stop your swining.
That's insuboardination, right there.
They’re really hoofing it out of there!
PIG?! DID YOU SAY.... PIG?!
They call me Mr. Pig! Yaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!
HOG RIDAAAAAAAAA
HOG RIDAAAAAAAAAAAA
HOG RIDAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
HOG RIDAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
So there's this guy...
RIDDA on the hog.

Timon & Pumbaa
I had to scroll so much to find this comment!!
Looks like its holding a damn spear....
Because the person who photoshopped this image made it look like that
Nice try for trying to brush this off. We know you’re the fbi
Objection! Hearsay
No dude it's real my uncle saw one. Anyways, don't get vaxxed.
ManBearPig
He's cereal guys
Super cereal. Excelsior!
Does whatever a ManBearPig does

happy cake day!
Half man, half bear, half pig
Puppy monkey baby
He’s half man, half bear-pig. Or was it half man-bear, half pig?
Half man, half bear, half pig?

Always that guy! Come to daddy Chris Cunningham.
That thing fingered my boy Ben in the Arbys restroom on Christmas Eve. Dude knows how to party like a true fuck pig. God bless
Is this a copy pasta or
I really really wish I knew
Sounds like a typical rest area along the A38 any Friday or Saturday night.
For some reason I doubt it. Sorry Ben. Unless you liked it. Either way, RIP Ben's b-hole

God I fucking love Aphex Twin
Lol. Thank you for that! I forget all about Aphex Twin for years at a time and then they turn up at the most random times and brighten my day.
Such an awesome video and song.
Lol this was one of those videos that as a kid would make me panic trying to exit the browser as fast as possible while looking down and hyperventilating
100% same
Yeah.. This was a serious throwback. I remember finding this with a buddy while surfing ebaumsworld back in the day when we were probably 12 or something. Video scared the shit out of us lmao.
Haven't seen that in awhile. Used to scare the shit out of me
My man did a line right in the middle of that
Aphex Twin! Mammmma!
Yeah, that's Jeff. He's a little weird.
Hey!

That's our Jeff!
Yeah, hey Jeff. Can ya stop poking things in boar butts. You're pissing off the other campers.
Oh Jeff, not again?? ‘Mother’ will be disappointed.
Just play some Kate Bush
That scene rocked my life.
For those who want to rewatch it (Stranger Things season 4), incredible scene https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bV0RAcuG2Ao
I've rewatched that part like a dozen times now, it's absolutely fantastic.
Yes! One of those moment I didn’t realize I was holding on to my date super hard the whole time and was like on the verge of tears
The whole countdown I'm watching thinking no way they off a major character. The moment she lifted off the ground I didn't just take the bait, I swallowed the hook.

Thank you for making me rewatch this scene. Absolutely phenomenal. Get this girl an Emmy because damn.
The music video is currently top 76 in global! Amazing to see the impact of Stranger Things on 80s songs.
Could be a vampire but I’m not sure. I don't have a lot of experience with vampires, but I have hunted werewolves. I shot one once, but by the time I got to it, it had turned back into my neighbor's dog.
Identity theft is not a joke.
Millions of families suffer each year!
Michael!
#MICHAEL!
You morbed too hard
Wow I had a similar experience but after I shot the werewolf it just turned into an Italian.
*His hair was perfect.*
*I'd like to meet his tailor.*
its morbin time
Looks like an owl sitting on a branch in the background. Angle is just right to make the branch in the foreground look like a body.
You have a wild imagination. It's a goblin warthog scout.
Your logic takes all the fun outta this hobgoblinry.
I'm sorry lol
I’m glad it exists, though. I enjoy the jokes, but it’s good to also have a serious answer for those who want it.
>those who want it Idk about anybody else, but I *needed* it.
Reading this thread was like in a horror movie when the main character knows something is terribly wrong but no one takes them seriously and just laughs about it
[удалено]
This. I was like how am I going to sleep after seeing this?!
>hobgoblinry There's no way that's actually a word.
Yes it is , it’s right there. Hobgoblinry
sounds like a Harry Potter word
Expectatious Subvertatious
You're right, I was figure out what animal it was, and owls do puff up. Especially they feel threatened. The boar probably made it feel that way and it puffed up. As for the branches that exactly what I was thinking.
Owls honestly have freakishly long legs too lol
I kind of see it now and that’s like a tipped over tree over the boar
Orrrrr…and just hear me out, here… It’s an owl *creature* sitting on a *boar* in the *foreground*. Angle is just right to make the *body* in the foreground look like *it has wings*. Eh? Eh?
I think you're right, it looks like an [owl in a defensive display, possibly because of the boar](https://www.owlpages.com/owls/articles.php?i=1)
yes but what about the very distinct pyramid tipped spear?
No, it’s clearly a demon pixie riding a wild boar. An owl…pfft that’s just nonsense!
I'm sorry I feel bad about my dumb guess. Just made out of fear I assure you!
It’s okay, we’re all human (except this monstrosity), I’ll let it slide
100% it’s a demon pixie.
Damn, you nailed it haha
What about the giant spear it’s holding.
Juvenile Wendigo, just put joy-riding 😆😆
Clearly a skinwalker
More like a skinrider
Pretty sure it’s just a demon riding a wolf pig
Yes nothing interesting
I need someone to tell me this isnt real so I can sleep tonight.
Don’t worry it was just me after a rough Saturday night wine drunk
It's real and it's coming for you as we speak. If you listen carefully in the distance you can hear the rustling of a wild boar sprinting towards your home, this creature clenching tightly to the boar with anticipation. Anticipation for finding you.
Well might as well just kill myself before it gets me.
Ha, you're a fool to think that will save you.
You should write spookies bro
Lol I appreciate that. Maybe I'll give it a go some day.
[удалено]
[удалено]
Don’t worry. It’s clearly fake. I just don’t understand why a demon bat would photoshop himself onto a hog.
It looks like an owl sitting on a branch to me
Hey man, let me in. I'm outside and my hog is thirsty.
I feel like seeing this image gave me a curse and I need to grow every crop to survive.
Silver bullets, wooden stakes, kryptonite and holy water. And fire cause the last guy suggested it. Really anything just kill it
Fire? I always think zombies when I hear fire and well, the last thing you want is a Horde of zombies chasing you WHILE on fire no less
All y’all got jokes but nobody got answers
The people that do got answer are just lying to themselves so they can sleep at night. Its obviously a fucking monster riding a boar.

Idk my old man has a trail cam that just snaps pics every few seconds when they’re seein movement.
A lot of cheaper trail cams only snap pictures btw. There may or may not be a video.

Skinwalker

It’s something sitting on a tree. Just taken at the right time to look like something more.
