An earthquake has drawn a strange faceless sea creature from the ocean’s depths.
Merica Lynn, 28, and her boyfriend Adoni Tegner were taken aback when they discovered a white-haired body washing ashore near Florence, Oregon, in the United States.
As Mr Tegner was summoned from his quad bike to investigate the bizarre discovery, the pair assumed they had encountered a sea monster on the beach.
Ms Lynn remembered, “Adoni was riding his quad around and rode back to me and said ‘Hey babe, there’s a sea monster on the beach’.”
“I was like ‘What? A sea monster? Show me!’”
“So I hopped on the back of the quad, he took me down to the beach, and we pull up to this giant creature there and it was about the size of a car.”
“There was this giant mass covered in weird hair.”
Ms Lynn acknowledged, “Our initial reaction was just kind of like ‘Whoa! What is this?’
“And I poked it with my foot a little bit and felt the hairs which seemed very stringy. And the texture was more like a firm muscle kind of thing.”
“It looked like it had a ribcage and almost like tentacles but they were very large; it was just hard to tell because it was just one huge lump.”
According to the couple, the stench was horrifying, as they both said it smelled like sea lions but much worse.
Ms Lynn admitted, “When we first pulled up to it, it smelt pretty bad. It smelt sort of like sea lions but worse.”
The 28-year-old, who produces bespoke jewellery for a local business, feels the enigmatic presence could be explained by a recent earthquake.
