A video (see below) purportedly showing a leprechaun running on a road in Argentina has gone viral on social media, sparking debate and speculation among netizens, reports coasttocoastam. with.
The footage was reportedly recorded by a security camera outside a police officer’s home in the city of José de San Martín on Christmas Eve.
The video shows a dog barking at something off-screen, and then a small, dark figure walks past the camera, moving very fast and looking blurry.
Some viewers have suggested that the figure could be a leprechaun, a mythical creature from Latin American folklore that is said to be a mischievous spirit or goblin. Others rejected the idea, saying the figure is human or animal, or that the video is fake.
The police officer who owns the camera told local media that he was not at home when the incident occurred, but checked the footage later and was surprised by what he saw.
He said he didn’t know what the figure was, but he didn’t believe it was a leprechaun. He also said that his dog was not frightened by the figure, but rather curious.
The video has generated a lot of interest and comments on social media, with some users sharing their own stories and experiences with leprechauns or other paranormal phenomena.
A leprechaun is a humanoid figure in folklore, with variations from Iberian, Ibero-American, and Latin American cultures, comparable to dwarfs, gnomes, or goblins.
Some expressed fear or curiosity about the figure, while others made jokes or memes about it. The video also attracted the attention of paranormal researchers and investigators, who expressed a desire to analyze the footage and interview the witnesses.
