Why are giant toothed 'vampire fish falling from the sky'?

Mysterious giant 'vampire fish' are 'falling from the sky' terrifying locals in a small Alaskan town.

Foot-long Arctic lampreys, which have five rows of sharp teeth, were found in gardens, streets and even a car park in Fairbanks.

The fish, which is not sold locally nor is it found in nearby rivers, is giving people nightmares.

Families are terrified of the bizarre creatures, which they are labelling 'vampire fish' or 'fish monsters.'

Lamprey use their sharp rows of teeth to latch onto other fish by piercing through their scales before using its tongue to suck up their blood and fluids.

While many fish die due to the severity of their injuries, some do survive. More + photos...
