CREEPY SEA

>>every now and then tides bring in severed human limbs
There's a beach in northern Canada that has human feet wash up on it every so often. Most of them aren't from suicides off a nearby bridge.

Man, when is Innocent Dickgirls going to come out with new content?
Oh, that's right, when the new Green Arrow issue releases.

Deep Water is pretty interesting to watch if you're interested in what long time on the sea can do to already frail psyche.

>A globster washes up on shore.
>Thick fog rolls in and does not dissipate.
>Crabs whose shells look like human faces are seen scuttling around on the beach.
>A ghost ship is spotted in the distance.

Nice

the shotgun is to convince her not to eat your face during the ceremony

Can you really claim that you love a girl if you'ren't ready to let her eat your face?

There are no fingerprints deep underwater.

Here's what she looks like after the wedding.

No, it's actually worse.

That's your mother-in-law.

A horrible flood occurs at a rich coastal town. It happened suddenly and abnormally fast.
When the water eventually drew back to sea, government officials and rescue workers were horrified when they realised there wasn't a single survivor. 21,387 dead.

But that horror quickly turned to terror, when they noticed wounds around the mouths of many victims. Autopsy showed that someone, or something had been shoving jewelry, watches, smartphones, credit cards, childrens toys, paper money, and coins in the mouths of those poor people... while they were drowning. And it had happened to everyone in the town, adults, elderly, children, pets, lifestock, even babies.

a sailor imported cthulu beasties to a an american port town and now the entire town are halfbreeds.

NOTHING TO TIE ONE TO A CRIME

Young, unmarried women who swim in the waters alone find themselves mysteriously pregnant.

In a lot of ways it isn't a very good game, but damn if I don't love it anyways.

>Under the light of a full moon the sands turn a dazzling blue and the waves seem hushed. Things begin dancing in the corner of your eyes if you look at it for too long.

>on dark nights you can see drowning women wash ashore
>they are indescribably beautiful
>you try to resuscitate
>seawater floods your lungs
>the woman turns into a scaley monstrosity
>she drags you down into the depths

The most effective thing I've done with creepy sea shit was simply telling the players that they could see a large mass off shore moving around, and that small waves were crashing to shore. They quickly moved inland. I think they might already have some sea fears or something. That or they were just thinking too much and thought I was about to start an encounter. I dunno. They roleplayed it as being unsettled and worried at least.

Are you going for a Woman-shaped Kelpie or ?

Kelpie. I took inspiration from some Pacific Northwest Native tales. Shit's spooky.

AND IF YOU SEEK VENGEANCE

...

I grew up on a little island and so basically, every summer, we'd spend all our time at a beach. There's these little bugs - we called them sand-hoppers, and I'm not sure what they're actually called - that buried themselves under the sand in the day. It was a really "shallow" sort of beach, so high tide would cover most of it, and at low tide you could walk quite a long distance out.

Anyway, there's these little hopping things that bury themselves underneath the sand. At night, though, they came out. One summer, there were a LOT of them and, going down to the beach in the middle of the night, you'd shine a torch over the sand and it was this fucking crazy roiling mass of insects hopping about. It was a warm, still, summer night so the sea was pretty still, and the beach itself looked like a sea of insects whipped up in a storm. It was weird, and seemed kind of creepy at the time, seeing the still sand just being torn up like that.

What about drowned people just out of the random showing up in a certain location?

>living by the sea and one night you see someone standing on the shore. Day after day they would stand there in the same location. On days when the moon was out, they were staring right at it. When morning comes the person disappears. You have no idea how to deal with it.
>A week later there are two more of them. One with a grevious injury from some sort of animal. The other still fresh, legs wrapped in a tangle of kelp.
>Two months later there is a small crowd of drowned people standing on the shore staring at the moon
>One night you stay up to observe them in secret.
>For some reason on this night, they know you're watching and all stare back at you
>As dawn breaks you observe them slowly walk back into the ocean

Rape

The Pacific Northwest's waters in general are spooky as hell.
>thick cloud cover or for more often than not
>everything is gray, wet, and dismal
>the ocean will race to see if it can freeze you before it drowns you
>the shallows are full of enormous tentacular kelp... or at least that's what the tourism guides say it is
>ordinary crabs and oysters grow disturbingly large compared to their brethren in the Atlantic
>killer whales and giant octopi
>nuclear submarines everywhere
There's a reason we locals swim in very protected, isolated bodies of water like Hood Canal or in lakes and streams.

The Oureng Medan is pretty creepy, but the Joyita seems so obviously banal that I find it hard to believe people would theorize about it.

This is literally my fetish.

one night the fish in the harbor seem especially rambuncious, jumping out of the water every few seconds and making alot of noise while doing it. the jumps increase in frewuency to the point wher ethe enitre harbor is a boiling mass of jumping fish and splashing water. something is horribly wrong. the fish are trying to escape some predator. wounded and half eaten fish leap out of the water with chunks of meat taken out of them. the water turns a muddy red color. then with horror the village realizes the fish with no flesh at all are leaping from the sea, they are animated skeleton fish. zombie fish. and they have eaten and killed all the living fish

jesus christ how horrifying

Damn, that's a good one. This them?

zombie fish oh fuck that's a goddamn nightmare

a ship runs ashore but when it gets there it just starts to sail though the sand instead

I really like this design do you anymore or a sourcr perhaps?

You can find a source for that by using iqdb in matter of seconds m8.

Getting molested

bump

Go read Gyo.

There are several species of fish that swim upstream to spawn only to die afterwards. It is a pretty fucked up sight. Half alive fish that are starting to rot.

Speaking of seaside stuff, I remember a National geographic years ago with a tidal cave somewhere in canada or near it that had a huge variety of weird mollusk things attached to every surface, looked like some freaky alien landscape (Or weird hentai tentacle-monster) does anyone know what it's called I've never been able to find it on google.

Nature is fuckin' twisted, man.

This town has an old name. Though the foundations and roadways and homes are only a couple generations old now, the name of the town is much older. It doesn't take much to reach the old town. and not much has changed at first glance since the townfolk moved inland. Just about 50 meters until you hit the shelf and 300 meters down. A bustling port town, sunk. The elders won't tell you why it happened. Or really even what happened. But there are rumors. Whispers on the waves and in the nights.

A large ship has beached itself on the shore, decrepit and ominously silent. When the party goes to explore the wreck and get far enough into the ship, it suddenly pulls off of the beach with them still aboard.

ALL YOU NEED ARE INSTRUMENTS OF PAIN

You feel yourself step in seaweed but when you look down, it isn't seaweed. It's a soiled diaper.

You can get shipwrecked on an island wreathed in fog and you can't seem to leave, you just circle back to the same shore.

The island holds places that are familiar. Sights you've seen, but from all over the world. They all seem linked together. The few human inhabitants you meet range from sane out of delusions of future rescue/salvation to raving mad, with the former slowly but surely turning into the latter.

And the rest of the inhabitants?

Well.. better find a weapon. Fast.

Well if I'm gonna die from some female sea monster, at least she's got big titties.

There are tales of a prize derelict ship that crop up in the local port towns every few years. A nameless, logless ship with full supplies and a bountiful hold. In good enough condition to sail itself, but otherwise without crew. However, no one who has tried to claim this vessel has brought it into port, and frequently any crew placed to bring it home disappears with no trace, even when multiple encounters occur on a voyage.

The ship is actually an eldritch entity that has been luring and consuming crews for centuries.

That might have been Scary to Lovecraft, but keep in mind that Lovecraft was very much a "the peas musn't touch the potatoes" kind of guy. He did have some autistic reactions to things and people not being easy to catagorize into little boxes and spilling over and with things existing without reason, which makes his brand of existential horror rather tame by today's standards.

In the late 90's/early 2000's this premise would be made into a sweet romantic comedy, probably by some one like Tim Burton, with only slight bearing and reference to the horror it was originally supposed to represent.

And today, it's probably the magical realm of at least half the people here.

What is it that's so ominous about lighthouses? You'd think that, being single points of guiding light amidst all the darkness, they would be more associated with hope, but there's still something eerie about them.

True that. Just so much as dropping a penny in water deep enough for the bottom to be invisible from the water's surface, and watching it sink, slowly vanishing from sight, is enough to give me the heebie-jeebies.

I'm surprised that no one has posted this yet.

No nipples, though. Maybe they're actually just pustures where she stores her venom, or something.

When I see these types of monsters with gigantic jaws and teeth, I think of two things:

>A creature that large shouldn't have teeth that big, because it dwarfs everything else and would not be very effective and catching smaller prey.

>Given the designer knew the former fact, and still designed it with massive, oversized teeth...how big are the creatures that it hunts to justify that size?

It's a creepy thought that makes pics like this even scarier. A creature like that implies that there are other, different, equally as massive/dangerous as it is, because it's armed to take on things roughly its own size.

It's because they're solitary figures in the dark. Tall and imposing, and the lights they shine reach far, but do not illuminate them.

On some mornings, when the water churns that awful dirty grey green, you occasionally see children calling for help from the far side of the bay, stuttering and drowning, pleading for help. They scream and beg, cry and wail, but...

The locals ignore them. They know they've been dead for years, and don't care to give whatever's puppeting them any more lures.

fuck, i never thought of it like that...

Think about this, animals develop spines and shells to defend them from predator, then look at pic

...

Tide come and completely unable to move away from the incoming water. This was the most terrorizing nightmare I had as a child.

what epic abomination is it defending against?

Nothing, you idiot. It doesn't have a natural predator, it's just something the gods made to punish mortals.

As a game I think it's fucking terrible and the only way you can play it is by using cheat engine to get max shit and sale the zee. As a setting it's very interesting.

perhaps that artist WAS aware of the evolutionary justification...

also I could never find JUST this image in any good size...anyone got a source?

is that the actual story of the terrasque???

GOTTA LOVE THAT MOTHER NATURE

don't forget about Razor Sharp oyster-beds/rocks or sea urchins...or otters that think it's good fun to pull your mask off or shut off your air so you thrash around...
