🧬 Serpentine body, glowing eyes, spiny back

⚠️ Danger: 4

Aglebemu is a river cryptid believed to haunt the Cross River area in Nigeria. Locals describe it as a serpentine creature with glowing red eyes and a spine lined with jagged fins. It’s said to emit a low hum or vibration when angered, which some associate with supernatural power. Folklore connects it to river spirits and as a guardian of sacred waters. Fishermen tell tales of boats being capsized mysteriously or nets shredded overnight. While no photographs exist, there have been consistent oral reports across generations. Some cryptozoologists suggest it may be a large, unknown eel species or exaggerated crocodile sightings.
