Johnny Depp has claimed that he was recently attacked by a "chupacabra" and that is why he missed his press conference.
'The Charlie and the Chocolate Factory' star although admitted to being sick but mentioned that the main reason he missed the conference was because he was fighting with a very rarely seen or experienced animal called "chupacabra" for hours, E! Online reported.
Depp further mentioned that chupacabra's are very persistent and it probably came into his suitcase, but the actor made sure that it won't come back as he threw him off the 23rd floor.
The legendary, mythical animal, which means "goat sucker" in Spanish, has been rumored to inhabit parts of the Americas but has been rarely seen. The name comes from its alleged habit of attacking and drinking the blood of goats.
