A mysterious humanoid figure baring a striking resemblance to a ‘dementor’ from the Harry Potter movies terrified residents at a shopping center in Zambia this week.  According to locals, a human-like giant figure hovered around the clouds above a shopping center in Kitwe,  in north-central Zambia, for around 30-minutes before disappearing. Photographs show a large humanoid head and torso, hovering menacingly in the sky and it is thought to have measured over 100 metres long.
