Meanwhile, in the valleys north of Beijing, one tourist was left terrified after seeing a Gollum-like creature hiding in the valleys of Huairou.
A Chinese tourist was in for a "shock" after he came across a bizarre looking "monster" while out camping near Beijing
The man was camping with friends in a valley in Huairou, Beijing, when he spotted the Gollum-like "monster"
A Chinese tourist, who does not want to be named, said he was camping in Huairou, Beijing, when he took a quick toilet break where he encountered the beast. He took several pictures of the mystery creature, which resembles Gollum from Lord of the Rings.
mirror.co.ukThe tourist who took the pictures said: 'I walked far away to have a pee, and suddenly saw a monster. I took a few pictures of it, but I am now terrified by my courage then.'
dailymail.co.ukThe images sparked speculation as to the origin of the creature after they were posted online. But one online commenter in China thought he had the solution to the "mystery".
Any debate however as to what the creature was appears to have been settled after an online commenter described being spotted while filming with friends.
mirror.co.ukThe actor wrote: 'Over the weekend I and my friends went to the mountains to take a mini sci-fi film. And when I was having a pee a person popped up and took pictures of me and shot away.'
telegraph.co.ukFor now at least it appears the matter is settled, but there is no doubt conspiracy theorists will call the revelation a convenient cover-up.
