Half-man half-owl creature spotted in Cornwall

A mythical half-man half-owl creature that scares off holidaymakers in Cornwall has been filmed in a graveyard - for the first time in 40 YEARS.

The terrifying apparition has been the subject of folklore since the 1920s but villagers began to rest easy as it hadn't been seen since 1976.

But local Mark Davies has now sparked curiosity among the current flock of tourists in Cornwall by capturing the infamous character on camera.

Mark filmed the shadowy horned figure known as the Owlman of Mawnan Smith prowling a graveyard in the village.

This video was filmed 20th August 2019.
