A small video from Argentina allegedly shows the shocking encounter of several teenage girls walking in a field near the village of Taco Palta y Marta, located in the northwestern province of Tucuman, with a strange creature (see video below).
The voice-over appears to be from one of the girls who shouts to her friends to watch something strange emerging from the forest.
"Is this a duende?" the girl asks, referring to a character from South American folklore who looks like a dwarf or a goblin.
It seems that her suspicions are confirmed by other teenagers, because they immediately start screaming in fright and hurriedly run away when a dark little figure enters the road and turns in their direction.
Unfortunately, it is rather difficult to see anything on the constantly jumping video, although, judging by several frames, the two-legged creature really looks like a goblin.
The origin of the footage, which quickly spread across social media, is difficult to determine, as the names of eyewitnesses and the details of the story remain a mystery.
Perhaps the clearest confirmation of the video's authenticity is the reaction of frightened teenagers when they realize what kind of creature has appeared in front of them. However, before jumping to any conclusions regarding this video, it would be wise to remember that such frames can be easily faked using a computer.
