WTF?

Don't even ask me what these things are - I don't want to know. Submitted by 'Anonymous in Maine'.

Real? Photoshopped? I don't have any way of verifying what they are or where they come from, but there's a strange symmetry to the second photograph...

The Pale Men, legend says, are mutated and malformed, joined with creatures of the sea. Some are only slightly larger than humans, some are giants, with the tentacles of octopi and the claws of crabs.

If that doesn't sound like something straight out of Lovecraft, I don't know what would.

I have a feeling that these pictures are an 'artist's impression' of the very creatures I have spent the last few years looking for. How else would he/she have gotten them? This island isn't that big. And the Pale Men have never been sighted elsewhere. They are bound to Solomon Island. Something draws them here, something keeps a few here, and something will draw the rest of them back...some day.

Let's just pray that 'some day' isn't soon.
