In 1939, West
African Review reported about a captured Sasabonsam. Sasabonsam was originally a vampire creature
of the Ashanti myth though others claimed that it is another name for
kongamato.
The
newspaper shared their accounts about the killing and the examination of the
sasabonsam. Based on the account, the
creature was a humanoid with wings similar to a bat that is attached to its
long arms. The wingspan is measured at around 20 ft. The other description of the creature turns
out to be so odd.
It is said
to have two short horns located on its head.
The creature hand can also be retracted and it has a nose similar to a
human. It also has a noticeable ridge in
the middle of its chest. The hind legs
of the cryptid are described as slim and long, the hair on its head is stiff
and it possesses sharp teeth. Furthermore,
they say that the creature is unlike any other creature that we are aware of.
The
description of the captured sasabonsam bears a striking similarity to the
owlman which was included in an article published on the fall of 1991 in the
Strange Magazine 8 by Mark Chorvinsky.
