DESCRIPTION: In the village of Mawnan, Cornwall, a flying humanoid cryptid was sighted around a church tower, dubbed the ‘Owlman’. Described as a humanoid figure resembling that of an owl, with large wings, a human like body and glowing red eyes. The first sighting of the creature occurred during a families holiday, when two girls claimed to have seen a large man-like creature, flying in circles over the Church Tower! They were so scared that the family cut their holiday short. They’re have been other reportings of the creature, but some experts claim it to be a misidentification of a real Owl or a trick by the illusionist, Tony Doc Shiels.
