A Facebook picture circulating Thursday has a lot of people up there worried. The post was shared thousands of times within a few hours and had a lot of people uttering the word skinwalker, a well-known legend in Indian country.
The picture shows an unexplained being lurking on the side of a road.
According to the legend, a skinwalker is a person with the supernatural ability to turn into any animal and walks on all fours.
But everyone can rest easy. It didn't take long for the picture and story to be debunked.
It apparently comes from a 1980s science fiction move "Xtro," where a creepy being is born, then goes on the prowl and is spotted by a couple driving along the road.
Asije akawa...wale alliens...Hat a sijui yawezekana ni jini Lakini si mahaba
Wewe ni mvuvi?
Hapana mimi ni night patroller
Mkuu, hii nyapi iliposkia ocean road ikaskia harufu ya samaki fasta!
Tehe tehe tehe!
Hawa manyapi wa pwani kwa samaki ni balaa!
Na wewe ni nyapi ya mkoani? Manake hukawii kutamani kuogelea saa hizi.
