For the second week in Georgia, they are discussing the "Kumiss ghost" (as the locals call him). Kumysi is a village in the Gardabani region (Kvemo Kartli region).
The "Kumiss ghost" has already been seen, as the locals say, in the neighboring villages - Koda, Borbalo, Asureti and Goubani. Locals say that this is a tall, thin creature with a painted face, making strange sounds … First, it knocks on the windows to be allowed into the house, and if it is not opened, it starts breaking the window. It is not possible to catch it … It disappears …
“One or several men dressed in black walk along Kumysi. They frighten the population, enter houses at night, wake people up and grimace in front of them, make strange sounds, and if they cannot enter the house, they scratch the doors and windows … Residents faint from fear, children have lost sleep,”this message appeared in social networks ten days after the appearance of a strange creature in Kumys.
The author claims that the "ghost" has already entered one of the houses.
“The residents of the neighboring village also complain about this… Presumably, there are several of them (“ghosts”- ed.), And they are scattered … The patrol is chasing after them, but to no avail (they are extremely fast, smart and dexterous). I don’t know, whom I should mark in this post, but you can tighten the measures ?! It works so smart that I doubt it is crazy. Until there are victims, maybe you will wake up? !!! , - said in the message.
Ghost hunters
Mir TV journalist Mikhail Robakidze and cameraman Khvicha Samadashvili went to Kumysi last week to prepare a story about the “ghost”. Near the store, at the entrance to the village, they were met by several young guys who assured that the ghost visits Kumys every day. On the eve, it turns out, about 200 people chased him, but to no avail … The creature, as they say, ran across the track on all fours and disappeared in the direction of the lake.
Promotional video:
“Some say that it is long-haired, others claim that its hair is thrown back, and for others it is completely bald. Someone proves that it is red-haired with a wrinkled face, there are those who believe that this is a former special forces soldier hired by the owner of Kumiss Lake to intimidate the residents, in order to then take possession of their lands. Although, in this case, it is not clear why this creature also visited neighboring villages,”Robakidze told Sputnik.
The film crew of the TV company, after talking with the local population, went up to the cemetery overlooking the village.
“We wanted to record on camera that the village is empty, and people out of fear do not even turn on the lights. At this time, we noticed someone in the bushes, but we do not know who it was, because when we called him, he disappeared. He was wearing sportswear, his height was about 180 centimeters, and he moved quickly even in the bushes,”the journalist told us.
According to him, there is an opinion that the "ghost" is a paranormal rake creature, which, according to the Kumis people, was brought from Lugar's laboratory. Villagers found it similar to rake after watching Bigfoot videos on the Internet.
“According to Wikipedia, the rake is a Bigfoot whose existence has not been scientifically proven. It is a cross between the Neanderthal primate, a species whose evolution has been interrupted. In 1957, a special commission was created at the USSR Academy of Sciences, whose purpose was to study the rake. Scientists were even sent on an expedition, but the results of their research are classified,”said Robakidze.
According to the journalist, local residents are afraid of a strange creature and demand from the police to install night vision cameras in order to fix the "ghost" and then detain him.
The villagers say that if the existence of a "ghost" is not confirmed by video, it turns out that they are crazy, and the police are normal. Law enforcement officers make one circle in the evenings and come back. In addition, the police say that there is also no reason to detain this creature, because it did not commit a crime, "Robakidze said.
Suspected of encroaching on someone else's property …
According to the press service of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, law enforcement officials did not disregard a single message about the "Kumiss ghost" and even opened a case under Article 160 of the Criminal Code, which implies a violation of the inviolability of housing or other property.
“The investigation began on the basis of scratches in the house of a local resident of Kumys, and all reports are checked very carefully. The case includes all the facts that the population associates in this unidentified object. At this stage, something significant has not yet emerged, the press service of the Ministry of Internal Affairs said, reports the Novosti-Georgia news agency.
The situation is further complicated by the fact that all the witnesses describe the "ghost" in different ways, the Interior Ministry noted.
“There are mutually exclusive messages, and when there is nothing concrete, it’s difficult to do something. This ghost or something else, while no one knows, it did not cause physical harm to anyone, and the houses were not seriously injured,”the press service said.
The police are also on duty at night, and they say that they have not yet noticed the "Kumiss ghost". And local residents are convinced that the police themselves are afraid and try not to go out again.
