A mysterious suspected goblin foetus found by builders is now on display in a museum.

The bizarre specimen was discovered during construction work in a disused warehouse.

It was found in the historical town of Santa María Regla, northeast of Mexico City, Mexico, in April.

The bizarre corpse is now on exhibition at the Museo de los Duendes – translated as Goblin Museum – in Huasca de Ocampo.

Anyone interested in viewing the creature can pay MXN 40 (£1.80) at the door and decide for themselves.

At the time, municipal mayor Francisco Mayoral Flores said the mummified remains could be from a “goblin or a nagual.”

In Mesoamerican mythology, a nagual is a human with the ability to shape-shift into an animal counterpart.

The foetus has a small body, four limbs, a disfigured face with a pronounced nose, claws, and a tail.

Huasca de Ocampo is a well known region for legends related to goblins, naguals and other mythical Mayan entities such as aluxes.

The area is surrounded by forests and is said to have a mystical aura, leading many to consider it a land of goblins.

The mayor said: “If it had been found in another municipality, it would not have been relevant.

“But due to the themes of goblins and the mystical here, there is a cultural and social demand to give it importance.”

He added: “Doctors and vets have stated that it is a malformed foetus of a cat or dog.

“However, samples have already been taken to determine a scientific explanation.”

Experts at the Autonomous University of the State of Hidalgo analysed the mummified remains and concluded that it did not belong to any known race of mammals, according to reports.

Mayoral also claimed that both the National Autonomous University of Mexico and La Salle University were going to analyse the alleged goblin as well.

However, the universities later clarified that they did not analyse the specimen and rejected the statements made by the local authorities.

The mayor said: “Everyone can value it themselves based on their beliefs and traditions.”
