In an absolutely bizarre story, someone in New Jersey seemingly caught one of the creatures from the movie “Tremors.”
Reddit user jlitch uploaded a picture of the strange creature with the caption, “Friend…caught this fishing in NJ.”
The incredibly disturbing water demon is apparently called a Sea Lamprey, and uses its ring of teeth to latch onto its prey. Once latched on, it secretes a digestive fluid to break down the flesh of its catch.
Sea Lamprey’s can grow up to 3 feet long, and are prevalent along the U.S. Eastern Seaboard, Europe, and in the Great Lakes.
