Melonheads, firstly. Said to be feral people with hydrocephalus. I feel awful about it since I want to go into medicine, but hydrocephalus is one disease that scares me so much, it just looks so grotesque. The thought of being chased through the forest by a melonhead really scares me.

I also researched dogmen (especially the Michigan Dogman, even if he's a myth The Gable Film rather frightened me), Zozo, a demon that thousands of people have supposedly spoke to, and an unknown cryptid that I stumbled across the description of.

Another thing I researched was mysteries with no paranormal connections.

Ah, I talked to Toutaku about melon heads before. Nasty story, that is.

I never heard of dogmen before. I should see that film. I haven't heard of Zozo either.

I like globsters.

Globsters are fun and highly fascinating. I don't find many marine cryptids scary, oddly enough. They just make me want to go back into marine biology.

Dogmen differ on the legend. Sometimes they're men with a dog's head, sometimes they're werewolves, and sometimes they're just feral men with hypertrichosis.

The information on Zozo was very vague, but apparently thousands of people have contacted him, through ouija boards and in dreams and hallucinations and such.

Have you seen the music video for Rubber Johnny by Aphex Twin? It's about a melonhead-esque humanoid creature. I'm very fond of Aphex Twin's work now, but that video frightened me so much the first time I saw it.

I saw part of the music video. Very eerie and unsettling. Then he starts raving, and it's all cool.

Zozo sounds very interesting. I wonder what that story could mean?

Those dogmen might be useful inspiration.

I feel scared of ocean water, honestly.

I hate that thing he does in the music video where he squishes his face up against that glass surface. Toutaku sometimes does that to annoy me when he lays down, smushes his face up like that, and I get mad at him because it creeps me out and looks ugly. I just really hate squished heads/faces.

Oh no, I adore the ocean. Whenever I go to California the first thing I always do is ask to go to the beach. The fact we know practically nothing about the ocean makes me want to be a marine biologist even more, if I flunk out of med school. I don't think we've even been to the bottom of the Mariana Trench yet.

I've heard myths about Zozo being some kind of Babylonian god that people used to sacrifice children to. I have no idea if that's true though, if Zozo is a real entity he could just be the afterlife equivalent of a fantastic Internet troll.

I wanted to make a dogman-type character for my freakshow RP, but it never really took off.

I never heard of such a Babylonian god. I think someone is just making things up.

Wouldn't surprise me at all.

I'm reading about more cryptids.
I'm fascinated by the Ningen.
