There are many monsters in the world whose existence has not been proven official science. This is chupacabra, and the bigfoot, and Loch Ness monster, and many other mysterious cryptids, occupying the minds of alternative researchers from all over the planet. However, the most terrible creatures, perhaps, do not live in dense forests and impassable deserts, and right at our doorsteps with you houses. And this cannot but horrify.
English writer, teacher and journalist Nick Radfern, interested in, among other things, supernatural phenomena Foggy Albion, recently published a very interesting article, which told the world about one little-known British paranormal.
A man writes that he was born in Birmingham County West Midlands. According to Radfern, despite the fact that this the metropolis is for the most part very modern in its historical areas there are many places that are practically not have undergone changes since the Middle Ages when Birmingham was a small european town.

These places include an extensive and mysterious network of freshwater canals, the “heart” of which is the Bay of Gas Street Baysen. If to believe in urban legends, there are some terrible creatures in it. One of them, for example, was observed here in 1997. Journalists then they even christened this cryptid a monster from Gas Street. Local the fisherman said that the creature looked like a black eel in length about 6 meters with tiny beady eyes.
Nick himself has repeatedly heard about the monsters in the channel system in the 80s years as a child. Now, having studied a lot of materials about meetings with similar creatures, the journalist determined that in the monster bay was not seen so often. Mostly they were met in narrow canals, some of which are located 5 kilometers apart from each other. As a result, Radfern concluded that underwater monsters are here there should not be very many, however they are, and deny this fact quite difficult.
Cases of meeting with the creepy monster of the water channels of Birmingham
Especially Englishman highlights the story told by employees the locksmith company that served the canals. It happened in the summer 1988 year. Workers having lunch break were sitting near water and threw bread at it, readily eaten by ducks. Unexpectedly they they saw a large, snake-like creature floating near the surface. It first aimed predatoryly at the ducks, but then changed course and soon disappeared into the depths.

In the same channel in 2003 they found a dead 4.5-meter python with strange wounds on the tel. Someone says that it is snakes generated rumors about monsters in the water, but cryptozoologists are convinced that in reality the python himself fell victim to these creatures, where more powerful and monstrous.
Many Birmingham residents are concerned that observations of monsters in channels coincide in time with mysterious extinctions of domestic animals. Over the past 40 years gone several hundred cats, dogs, rabbits, dwarf pigs and others pets of local residents. Some witnesses claim that a monster from Gas Street crawls out at night to the shore and every time throws itself into the water if you approach it or shine from afar flashlight. As if it possesses not only fantastic sizes and monstrous power, but also a well-developed consciousness.

Every day, hundreds of thousands of citizens pass near dark canals, cross them on bridges, swim here in boats and go fishing, not even suspecting that he may be hiding in the depths beneath them. But maybe it and for the better. The less you know the better you sleep. In addition, fortunately, not not a single case is known that these creepy cryptids attacked people. For now…
