Reminds me of a story that happened in Peru back in 2023, The “Peru face peelers,” also referred to as Los Pelacaras, are reports and stories that emerged from remote areas of the Peruvian Amazon, especially around 2023. Residents in some Indigenous and rural communities described sightings of tall humanoid figures, sometimes said to wear dark or metallic-looking suits and behave in unusual ways. In some accounts, people claimed these figures attacked or attempted to harm individuals, with descriptions including cutting or “peeling” facial skin.
These accounts spread from local testimony into wider media coverage and online discussion, where they were linked to interpretations involving unidentified beings, advanced technology, or other unexplained phenomena.
At the same time, the narrative has also been connected by commentators to older regional folklore such as the Pishtaco, a traditional Andean figure described in various ways across time as a predatory human or outsider.
Different explanations have been suggested in response to the reports, including misidentification, criminal activity in remote areas, rumor amplification in isolated communities, and the possibility of folklore influencing interpretation of events.
The story remains part of ongoing discussion between local testimony, cultural folklore, and modern internet speculation, with varying interpretations depending on source and perspective.
