You don’t need to speak Spanish, you just need to think logically.

“El” means “The”, obviously.
“Mundo” is an intensifier, as in “correctamundo” (a word I have never used before and hopefully never will again).
And “Gira” is clearly “Giro” with a feminine suffix.
So it means “The Awesome Female Bank Transfer”.

Do Not Truffle with the Humungous Fungus Among Us

From that list, the ones I like the best are (in order of appearance):

1. Christmas Carol / Emily
2. The Pine Bluff Variant.
3. Dreamland I & II.
4. S.R. 819.
5. Monday.
6. Field Trip.

[I haven`t watched the last three yet]

Have we gotten to the episode with the psilocybin mushroom colony that causes hallucinations while it’s digesting its victims in an underground cave?

I dunno, they did at least two different kinds of vampires (not counting the fat, melanin and liver vampires). They coulda done two different kinds of chupacabras too.

Hell, even in real life cryptozoology and urban legends there at least two different kinds of chupacabras, and several different interpretations of the Jersey Devil. None of them even remotely resemble the ones in the show, mind, but it still leaves a little room to go back and fix that.

Both episodes always felt disappointing to me because they basically and for no real reason wasted the opportunity to do an actual chupacabra/Jersey devil episode later. I mean, neither story in any way needs to reference those myths in order to work. They’d be just fine (well, as fine as they already are, at least) “monster of the week” eps without trying to tie their shenanigans to the CC/JD. X-files writers made up stuff out of the blue all the time, so they’d fit right in. But by tying them explicitly to those respective creature myths, they basically established “this is what the CC/JD actually is in the X-Files universe”, and thus blocked themselves from doing anything with the actual myths later.

Technically the plural would be “los chupacabras”

Although its not as if the fans of a show about conspiracy theories and the paranormal can be expected to notice that the writers got absolutely every single detail wrong about one of the most popular cryptids in the world. Remember how nobody noticed when they did the same thing with the Jersey Devil?
