The identical twin brothers are called Sam and Eric, or Samneric for short, not Simon and Eric. In chapter 6: Beast From air Samneric simultaneously describe the beast, and I quote.... "It was furry. There was something moving behind its head--wings. the beast moved too---" "that was awful. It kind of sat up---" "There were eyes---" "Teeth---" "Claws--" "The beast followed us---" "I saw it slinking behind the trees---"
The signal fire went out when Jack made Samneric leave the fire duty to go hunting. It also goes out when Samneric "see the beast".
Yes, I have to agree with that about Samneric climbing the Mountain.

Why don't you read the book and find out? They go to Castle Rock which is the only place that Jack admits that he has never been to during his hunting expeditions. When no beast is found they then decide to look on the mountain top, which is where Samneric reported they had seen it.
When Simon discovers that 'the beast' which Samneric had seen on the mounatin top is simply the dead body of an airman he untangles the parachute lines which have caused the body to move like a puppet when the wind blows.

It is the parachute of the dead parachute guy

Ralph suggests a hunt for what Samneric saw, which is the "beast" they claimed to have spotted on the mountain. He wants to investigate the sighting to ensure the safety of the group and understand the perceived threat.
The "beast" that Samneric see in "Lord of the Flies" is actually a dead parachutist whose body gets tangled in the trees and moves with the wind, creating the illusion of a monster. The boys mistake the parachutist for a frightening beast and report it as such to the rest of the group.
In "Lord of the Flies," the three boys who continue the search for the beast are Jack, Ralph, and Roger. They believe they see a beast, which turns out to be a dead paratrooper dangling from a tree with a parachute.
Samneric explained that they were frightened and saw a figure they thought was the beast, so they ran back to the group to warn them. However, in their panic, they were unsure of what they saw and may have exaggerated the details.
Littlun Phil sees what he believes to be the beast in the jungle; however, it is actually Samneric pretending to be the beast. This incident showcases the growing fear and paranoia among the boys, as they start to believe in the existence of a monster on the island.
Samneric in the flickering light of the signal fire see the dead body of an airman, which appears to move as wind blows against the parachute which is still attached to it. They think that they see the beast and in their frightened and confused state the movement of the parachute suggests wings. Later Ralph, Roger and Jack also see the dead body on the mountain top, in the failing light of evening, and reach the same conclusion, that they have also seen the beast.
Yes, I have to agree with that about Samneric climbing the Mountain.
Samneric exaggerate what they saw by describing the beast in vivid and terrifying details, which instills fear in the other boys. This exaggeration fuels the boys' paranoia and leads to increased tension and division among them. The distorted account by Samneric creates a sense of danger and further contributes to the breakdown of order and reason on the island.
The "beast from the air" is the dead body of a pilot, suspended from a parachute, which descends from the air and lands on top of the mountain. This body and it's "flapping" parachute are mistakenly identified in the dark as a"winged beast" by the twins Sam n Eric, who are called Samneric by the other boys.
