So my brother was looking for shells and he was scared of one. He showed me and I followed him along to humor him and I genuinely do not know what this is, it is creepy. Anyone know what this could possibly be? I live by Tampa on the East Coast and haven’t seen this before.

Well I think it’s just some random thing called an isopod. We were gonna get closer pics of it but then it got carried away and eaten by one of these guys. Ah well ig. It’s fine but that was definitely strange.

Update: We found another one!!! This one actually was alive and it was scuttling around the shore, it’s actually kinda cute. Little isopod guy! 🥺

We decided not to take it, that might be kind of cruel. But def sending this pic to my uncle, he might know what it is he’s a bug person. My mom suggested we send it to him so yeah. Here are more beach pics:

Some strange guys in globe looking uniforms are ushering people off the beach and the police is with em. We had to leave the beach sadly. :// I wonder why they’re there.

Okay so my brother actually took more pictures of similar looking animals in the water and he just sent them to me, now I’m for sure weirded out bc like what even are these? Are they really extinct species in FL with us?

Back at the house now and, we are hearing some extremely weird noises in the area. Here’s what we recorded. We think pelicans maybe or something like that. Who knows really, ideas? 🤔

We found it, it looks like a really big toucan, so we’re not really too worried anymore. Dad thought the noises were a gator but he just saw this and is posting abt it on Facebook or whatever. 🙄He is THE florida man. He says he might shoot it if it tries anything funny.

oh shoot here is the picture, yeah I know it sucks but it’s getting dark and it was taken through a screen.

It looks like a flying dinosaur or something. My mom is kinda concerned but my bro and I think it’s an overreaction I mean Florida has plenty of weird creatures in it like look at this funny guy I took a pic of last week :]

Okay my mom is screaming about a snake and somehow one got in our house, it looks like a stubby rattlesnake but without a rattle tail. My dad’s gonna take care of it with a broom. Here’s a photo of it, trying to get rid of it now. what breed is it is it poisonous?😬

THIS SNAKE IS LEAPING AROUND OUR HOUSE LIKE A FLYING SQUIRREL!!! Dad is having a hell of a time trying to catch it, I’ll try to get a picture for y’all to see..

Here’s a pic I was able to get of it going. My finally dad hit it out of the air with his broom and killed it.

Currently eating dinner now, my bro is HOGGING the nuggets rn

My brother was gonna take the trash out but then he came back. He said there are giant birds outside and he didn’t wanna go. I asked if it was the toucan thing and he said it was different. I’m gonna take the trash bins out then bc I feel like he’s just trying to be lazy.

Boys are so lazy man like what even dude. 😭😭😭

Yeah bruh was making up shit there’s nothing outside. xd Man I gotta do all the work :/// He insists that there IS something out there tho but ehhh idk, I told him to prove it.

Well he texed me “proof” alongside this image. Shit I guess he’s not wrong. These look like dog-sized roadrunners or somethin.

He texed me some stuff and apparently all around the country there are sightings of mysterious, prehistoric looking animals, I looked into it and yeah, there are a lot of cracked things popping up all around. These look like mfing dinosaurs, WTF IS HAPPENING?!?? 2023 is crazy💀

who is Mikey?

Okay so ig Mikey is okay, maybe these ones are fine as well. Also my bro is heading back in, he said he wants to show me something and get my reaction lol. Good thing he’s coming back my parents just asked abt him

My brother is the dumbest cretin alive. He ran up to one of these, things, took a flash pic in its face and then ran back, his dumbass had to hide in the bushes. This is the picture he took, I literally had to slap him that was so fucking stupid. Now my dad is calling the cops.

He said it was like 7 and a half feet tall but he is 5’3 and is probably exaggerating. He is also a dumbass. My dad is angry with the cops because they’re too busy because- there’s a fucking cougar screaming outside.

We are hunkering down for tonight, we locked everything up and are all sleeping in the same room together.

We all waked up and had some breakfast, nothing seems weird outside it’s just all quiet and stuff. My brother is playing Rust rn.😒My parents are in their room, Mom’s extremely upset about something, apparently she’s in a lot of pain, I wonder if it’s gotta do with her pregnancy.

My dad is leaving to get more meds for my mom things haven’t been great for her lately. I can’t imagine how hard it all must be. She is 6 months in. Also my brother raged I could hear him screaming in his room lol.

I checked on my brother and he said our internet is ass, I think it’s out, I be relying on data rn 🥹 Also I got grossed out seeing this thing right outside our house on the ground when getting air. Looks like a bat bird thing, kinda like that pterodactyl looking one earlier.

My dad is back, he seems angry about something and now he and mom are going to the hospital, I seriously have no idea what’s going on with her and neither do they so she’s going to be looked at. She seems to be in agony.
:[ Bro and I will hold up the fort for them.

Okay our parents aren’t back yet, they said they’re going to gave to spend the night at the hospital or at least most of it, it’s been forever. No weird/scary sounds or animals really- hang on, my brother texted me to come upstairs, something is on the balcony.

We aren’t making a peep, something is staring at us through the sliding screen door. I hid around the door, zoomed in, and recorded it, my brother is hiding behind me, we are gonna close this door and lock it from the outside. This looks like the animal y’all have shown me. :[

It is still making those really messed up sounds, it’s so loud and now it’s scratching at the door really hard. We are gonna call the police again, I HATE THIS I HATE THIS I HATE THIS. FUCKING HORRIBLE

I have fashioned a makeshift flame thrower, my brother and I are on the lowest floor right now, we have barricaded everything except the garage door, I texted my dad and he is on the way, mom is gonna stay in the hospital overnight. Why does life have to be so sucky..

It broke the the screen and is attacking the gd doors, we can hear them screaming at each other from down hear, this shit is straight up demonic, my bro just pissed himself scared and I’m not abt to bully him for it. Ugh I feel sickkk!!! :(( The police aren’t answering either!!!

Dad is here I hear the garage door opening up, I’m so glad he is back oml 😭 I NEED the passcode to the gun safe bruh.

Oh shit I missed his text “What the everloving fuck is this? Christ you kids need to lock up, I’m on my way asap.” Jesus look at the pic he took, it has a GATOR, A GOD DAMN GATOR!!!
Dad is with us now we locked up and he’s getting the guns, we will need em. This is not the same-

-as the one upstairs, that one is way smaller and looks like this picture you all keep showing me, this one, it’s so damn creepy we gotta blow its head off, hide, or run.

We were discussing what to do next, dad has his handgun on em but he still looks scared, despite acting calm I can tell, which makes me REALLY concerned. My brother is crying in the bathroom down here. Shit, it’s crazy how fast our lives have been completely flipped upside down..

My father is getting the shotgun from upstairs, he says he is gonna take care of the dinosaurs in our upstairs, and has told me to be with my brother in the bathroom. I gave him a hug and we shared a moment together. Right now I’m with my brother in the bathroom.

Dad shot his gun off a few times and we heard some shrieking and him yelling at those monsters, I think he is fine though, I think. He is coming back downstairs.

We are hiding in the bathroom behind the shower curtain, the door is unlocked but we’re too scared to fix that. We’re hiding bc, we heard our dad instructing us to hide from upstairs. Whatever came down, was not our dad. I’ve got my brother in my arms now.

It’s entered, I called the house phone I think it’s slightly distracted by that, I can hear more footsteps down the stairs I think my heart will give out, my brother is quietly sniffling behind me, this could be the end..

I think it got shot by my dad, there’s a ton of pitter patter on the ground and the thing is sorta stumbling around in here with, it just hit the floor and hasn’t made a sound or moved, fuck what do we do???

I called the phone, no response from it, I am gonna take a small peek with the camera- oh fuck the other footsteps are getting closer. Now the monster is beginning to move again..

Okay, before the second thing gets down here my brother and I are gonna bombard the first one with flash pics and make a run for it, I turned off the smart nitelight so this should disorient it..

I’m sobbing, it pinned my brother down and my dad came in and knocked it off him, me and my brother got out and my dad locked himself in with that monster. He tried to say something to us but he was just gurgling. My brother and I, we’re in fucking shambles. Dad’s actually gone.

this happened a bit ago we have just been, processing things, the creature is still inside there but, it killed dad. We got a pic of it. IF YOU SEE ANYTHING LIKE THIS, FUCKING KILL IT ON SIGHT

I want to know what dad was trying to say. I don’t think I ever will.

I sent my brother to get the gun, there’s no other animals in the house rn and- wait a fucking minute.. the animal is talking. It’s just saying my mom’s name over and over.
What the fuck.

We grabbed the gun. It’s now just croaking and lightly pawing at the door. I think it’s gonna die but there’s no way in there to double tap the fucker, it’s a really secure lock. As I finish typing this it stopped. I think it’s dead.

My brother and I are going to lock ourselves in the upstairs bathroom and sleep, we need it, poor Mom, I don’t know how she’s going to handle the news, especially in her condition. Our upcoming family member will grow up without a dad.

We can’t rest. I think I’ll pirate a movie for us to distract ourselves with for now. It’s just, sleeping isn’t an option right now. We’re barricaded, have food, and dad’s gun, we should be fine.

We woke up to something clattering on the stairs and stuff repeatedly tapping the walls in the hallway outside my parents room, which has the bathroom we’re in. It’s really weird, my brother wants me to take a peek.

Should probably give y’all our names just cos we may end up dead or missing. I’m Bailey and my brother’s name is Maxwell. Anyway I’m gonna look, whatever is out there sounds small.

Huh it’s just a bunch of bugs, Max thinks these are called horseshoe crabs or something like that. There are a ton of them, some fell down the stairs. They just, came out of nowhere somehow..(?)

Hiding in the locked bathroom again, We heard some people bust the door open and walk in. These guys are, doing something I, I don’t know what, listen to em

These fucking voice modded assholes are badmouthing my dad, Max is crying again and I’m fuming.

he said “Fucking idiot you’re not supposed to scratch it out, you ruined it…”
“Got an extra?”
“Yes I have an extra, *unintelligable* Don’t screw it up *unintelligable* killed,”

they were insulting my dad one said “It’s one of those raptor attacks, more common coast to coast” or something, they are using what sounds like a pressure washer now

Max and I will lay low till they leave, it sounds like there is a lot of them, they have come upstairs and are picking up the crabs and putting them in trash bags rn. The gun’s loaded fyi..

they have been sitting down there for fucking hours chatting away about, something I don’t understand. Saying things like “ruptures” and “neosee” and “novaseen” and “mesazoic”and talking about other things I don’t understand. Max has fallen asleep and I’m thinking abt the beach..

I have a feeling these people are related to the weird globe people you guys suggested, along with the cops. Fuck they’re still down there..

@cookiedoujones @RobinAtticus I seriously can’t find anything

They have left quite a bit ago, sorry for not posting any updates but, we have been thinking through a plan on how to get to our mom all day. Also we wanna like figure out who those guys were. We are gathering supplies rn for the journey out. Dad’s body has been removed btw.

Max found this poking out of the trash, what the hell, okay so that’s the same logo as the guys on the beach with the cops, what the hell does this mean, who are these guys?! What is WEHO?

wait January?? How are these people from, the future..

There’s also this image we found in the trash as well, I, I am clueless to what this means. Any ideas guys?

Okay so I don’t know how you guys are getting this info about this “Chicago guy” because he hasn’t posted some of what y’all are talking about yet.. Am I stuck in the past or something??

There’s an extremely bright light that’s multicolored, it’s shooting through all our windows and it hurts a lot to look at, here’s a pic of one of em, we’re staying away from the light

There’s a light coming from the basement, and shrieking, we need to get out of here now. here’s a recording of it. It’s so damn loud, it hurts our ears.

We’re outside, it got dark unfortunately but, there’s no sign of life out here, aside from the little bugs. Max and I were just quietly talking about how we’re gonna get to our mom, we don’t know which hospital she’s at..

We have been walking for a few minutes now and there are no cars out, we are gonna take a shortcut to the police station and- Max just said there’s something in the retention pond.

It looks like a gator but, something’s wrong it’s far too large and, it’s, got this, needle face it’s not normal.. Max says it looks like a garial which is sorta similar I suppose, but way smaller and in India apparently. We are backing away carefully, we don’t wanna be too loud.

Okay we managed to outrun it but holy mother of shit that was fuckin scary. Here’s a recording of that & an image that we took after it stopped chasing. That wasn’t a gator at all we have no idea what it is, but it seems to be guarding something, who knows tbh we hate it anyway.

There’s more gator things out there, not in the water but on land, they’re, tall and kinda look like dogs, hang on they’re headed towards us slowly, we have the gun still and a baseball bat. Come to think of it we could’ve shot that massive gator thing earlier.

They, ran past us(?) Like?? They weren’t running at us but towards us, they seemed panicked, Max got a good pic of one of em here he sent it to me, this is it:

Listen to em all..

Oh shit.

I’m holding my brother close now, we are hiding in a drainage tunnel pipe or something, this, bad pic, because the bird-like predator that killed our dad was back, at least that breed of monster was back. We managed to escape by running back to the ret pond.

This was my bro’s idea, we went back there as the dinosaur birds were chasing us and had the giant garial looking one come out of the water and accidentally protect us from the murdering fucks. It was swiping its head at the dinosaurs and they eventually left.

We didn’t use the gun because we dropped it, when day breaks I’ll get it back.

We were able to hunker down last night so we’re headed to the beach and there have been several bodies. A lot of them are hung really high up in trees, this one fell down and startled us, additionally there was something sleeping in the tree with the bodies..

There are some absolutely enormous birds in the sky, like they’re literally the size of hang gliders or something like that, they don’t rlly care abt me and my bro but there have been quite a few of em in the sky, along with more strange lights.

Still thinking about the WEHO crap, I hope they’re still at the beach, I’ve got several questions and they might know where mom is. And that light stuff.

We have reached the ocean, at last, the water under the bridge is shimmering with lights, they appear as specific colors on the camera but we notice they’re all multicolored, mostly white..

max and I think it’s weirdly beautiful to watch, something surreal and, there’s just the most beautiful wailing in the distance, like a whale..

Our ears are ringing there’s a absolutely massive light in the sky, it’s insanely bright and it broke Max’s phone completely. (apple problems) Here’s the pic I took, my phone is acting weird and buggy now but it’s not broken, this thing has to be miles long..

We’re RUNNING away from the beach because that’s where the light is

The humming is louder now, whale-like. Here are some recordings further inland, so soothing. Max and I are sitting down and listening rn. So pretty..

It’s beginning to get dark again, we didn’t even realize, we are going to get something to eat in one of the empty stores, then hide. We also heard some people down at the beach shouting things into a megaphone also but it was in Spanish, and Mandarin(?) they had voice mods too..

Hang on it’s not getting dark, there was just, something uh, in front of the sun… We’re going to the beach.

Okay we made it back down to the start of the beach and there’s like, half of a dolphin which is kinda sad.. The people are wayyy far out and we are headed that way. Hang on- Max said there’s something moving in the waves. We wish our parents were here, badly.

What the hell is this.

It’s shooting through the water, chasing something that, kinda looks like the loch ness monster. My brother thinks it looks like some Mario 64 character(?) but whatever, These things are kinda cool but, scarily fast and they look super mean.

OH MY GOD I WAS TRYING TO GET A PIC OF THE LONG NECKED THING AND GOT THIS!! The thing just got smashed, omg the water is turning red now over there..

It’s left now, swam far far away dragging the plesiosaur(?) with it, thanks for teaching me that term. We saw some nice seabirds and that humming and wailing is still in the air, seems like the birds are soothed by it as well, they’re way less skittish.

Something absolutely beautiful is currently gliding through the waters surface, it is soooo prettyy and it’s the source of the beautiful singing. Its gotta be at least 300 feet tall.. it’s amazing.. We’re just watching it and, the seabirds took off towards it.

Look at it…

Max just started walking towards it without saying anything, I’m gonna follow, we need to see this closer..

It’s amazing, it’s swaying its head around slowly, and non of the birds are getting hurt, oh wait something else just left the tree line and stepped out onto the beach in the distance..

oh my god.

It’s, it’s a dinosaur.. a full blown dinosaur, Max is freaking ecstatic and honestly so am I a little bit, despite it all it’s hard not to be a little excited about all this and-

It followed us.

It moved into the grass and a second one arrived, those monsters are tossing some kid’s body around and making sure we see it… they’ve even ripped off their clothes to throw them in the air just, Max and I are, we are, not okay. Hell is humid…

Max shot the gun at them and missed and now they’re making gunshot noises back at us, I have a bat in my hand and I’m ready to use it.

We ran out of ammo and, those FUCKS are just, eating that poor person in FRONT of us at leisure, Max started to cry and, I might do the same, the singing from that massive creature will no longer soothe me, not after this. It’s still there, standing indifferently in the water.

We’re so exhausted, but we lived. We had to tread water in the ocean for hours because the bird-monsters didn’t go in water, but we couldn’t go too far off the shore because of that “mosasaur” so we ended up waiting for the monsters on the beach to get bored and leave while-

-treading water the entire time. Before getting in the water we put our phones and weapons on the sand and they weren’t disturbed. the giant singing thing has left at this point and the sun is coming up. Yes we were out there into the night.

Max has told me that the body they were flinging around was actually a classmate of his named CJ, jesus. Also we are going to raid a store now because, we are absolutely starved.

There’s a drawing on the sidewalk that we saw, I’m not sure if it has any significance but, it’s just somethin to look @ I suppose.

We’re in the store and, something is just, creaking in the corner of the store, slowly, over and over. There’s good food in here though so we aren’t about to leave yet, the creaking is from something on the ceiling we think.

The ceiling just broke and scared the shit out of us but, when we looked there was a fan on the ground and a woman with rope around her neck attached to it.. we’re leaving now, not gonna eat by a dead person just, wtf has happened??

Well as for the questions she looked pretty fresh and no scuffed but, we didn’t take a close look tbh. We did however find the police and globe uniformed people on the beach and they drove off on buggy thingys. They were too fast to catch up too, and too loud to hear us.

They did leave a small sketchbook behind and there were the following drawings inside of it, these are the simpler drawings found within

These are the more complex drawings within

We will be following them from a distance to see what they do, one of them looked like that drawing we saw on the sidewalk, I’ll try to get pics..

They have hauled something huge into this crate and are driving it off in the distance, take a look..

The animals on the beach also appear to not be afraid of humans, like at all, they were not running from us really. Which we thought was odd..

A couple more smaller animals that washed up that looked interesting to us, as well as that giant thing you people say is a ‘mosasaur’ which, this one is smaller than the one from earlier but, it’s been ripped open or something..

something else we saw earlier was the same giant bird-like animal from earlier which doesn’t seem to interested in Max and I, here it is carrying the head of one of the evil ones.. We’re guessing she killed it, and I say she because she has a baby with her. We kept distance.

Uhh so some guy is shouting at us and waving his arms out, wait this looks exactly like that drawing from earlier I think it’s that weird armored guy. We have no idea what he is saying, he has a voice mod and it’s in spanish, uh he’s walking closer and he’s freaking us out..

We sprinted away from him and he chased us for a sec then gave up and called someone on a phone or something, we are gonna be booking it away he gave us the creeps. I think it’s that WEHO group..

Looking into them yields nothing, just a generic volunteering website and a couple logos, what the hell is WEHO?

Oh fuck.. Max and I just found something, horrific on the sand.

I’m gonna blur this one for y’all but, it’s some old guy who uh, looks in horrible shape. Absolutely awful. There’s literally no police tape or police here or anything wtf, I tried calling but we aren’t getting service. We can’t call mom either, this is just, mental.. Sickening..

We are leaving the entire beach again, Max and I figured that whatever did this, can’t be far away, he looks fresh.

Wait what, it’s 11:34 PM and the sun is just NOW beginning to set??? Max and I are really confused my phone HAS to be goofed up or something- hang on we can hear helicopters, they have that WEHO logo on em, going to b hiding it out for a bit inside this random store.

There’s a shocking amount of food in here and the place is still partially running, Max is eating some Jerky rn. I wonder why there’s nobody else in here though, feels uneasy in here, just a lil bit. It’s so quiet.

Max and I are holding hands and looking for good canned foods, this store’s overheads just shut off but the displays are all on. I guess the overheads were on like, auxiliary? 🤷‍♀️
See anything good?

Max alerted me we’re not alone, I zoom in across the store and see, whatever this is, check this thing out, it’s glowing softly and, moving extremely slowly and quietly. What the hell is it??? The thing has bat-like wing webs, and, several pointy legs underneath…

It just twitched unnaturally fast and then vanished right in front of us. We are going to get the fuck out of here-

The power is gone.

There on top of shelves, they’re blinking and extending their wings(?) Max and I are trying to be as quiet as possible..

Okay so one of them just leaped at the other one and now they’re knocking over the shelves, it is so loud. It sounds like they’re fighting or something, there’s just an INSANE amount of stuff being knocked over and they’re zipping all around the store,

We booked it out of there with some food in a bag but it’s dark out now and we gotta find somewhere to sleep, we are hella exhausted. At least the helicopter is gone and Max and I are both alive. Just gotta get mom..

It’s dark out now and this thing scared the shit out of us by like, fuckin scream-cackling in a tree above us, we actually screamed at it too bc the mf scared as well and then fell onto Max and trotted away stopping to give us the side eye a few times. We needed a laugh. :]

whoops, it fell* xd Oh also that humming singing is back, in the distance, and there are a lot of very strange sounds all around us tonight, like more of whatever that possum thing was screamin and stuff. We also found a store and we will sleep in the bathroom prolly. :p

We woke up to those guys voices again, they’re sweeping through, We are being absolutely silent rn..

Something’s out there..

We left and, walked past a few of their bodies. Some WEHO guys dead and just, shattered armor plating and, ripped up clothes. They were completely skinned men & woman, and some of their parts were chewed to the bone. Also there was like blue blood along with the red blood.

Sorry for not posting about anything in a while, it’s just, a lot happened to us.

Max is partially paralyzed now. We heard an infant squealing and crying in a part of a building but it, wasn’t that it was those monsters again. They took Max and fucking slammed him into the ground over and over and over, I had to figure out how to reload and just kept fumbling,

I feel so bad for him and I have had to carry him around since then, he still is conscious and tries to make light of the situation with his little references and stuff but I just feel so bad for him, my little brother can’t even walk anymore. As for that demon, I shot it dead.

He fades in and out of it, I don’t know what else to do but go back to the beach and let WEHO take us, they said rescue people on their paper that I still have. Thanks for the help everyone. Hang on that singing is back, I’m gonna be leaving the weapons behind, too much to carry.

We made it to the beach, No WEHO. Max has fully come too but he’s in bad shape. The pain he says is some of the absolute worst he’s had, he says that even the wind on his skin hurts, I had taken off some clothes to use as a wrapping, they have since turned red, and are wet.

I carried my brother around the beach and we collected some shells together, he would spot them on my back and I would bend down and collect them in my arms, we saw a lot of really cool shells, it was fun and brings me back to when things were normal..

Max is sat down now and I’m next to him. I had just taken some pics of birds for him and weird shimmering flying things photobombed. You know, we used to like birds but, they’re different now, still pretty and cute but different.

My phone had died inexplicably for a while and then came back, my body also got like, super tingly for no reason at times and it actually hurt a lot. Max is in terrible condition rn, I have been hand feeding him and giving him water, there have been no dangerous animals.

I could hear people and there actually were some people one of those WEHO suit guys too. Here, it looks like a hike or something. There’s a kid there too.

Hang on he saw me and waved the normal looking people away. He’s headed over I’m getting a pic,

He is telling me to calm down through that weird voice mod, and to “come with me, the ruptures are only gettin’ worse kid.”

He is carrying Max carefully now and I’m following their group back to a helicopter. I think it’s finally looking good for us, I asked about the papers and stuff and he stopped to stare at me then said it’s nothing that concerns me. :/

I asked about my mom and the hospitals and he didn’t say a lot but when I mentioned she was pregnant something about his demeanor changed I can’t tell exactly what specifically changed but, It didn’t make me feel good.

He sent a photo to my device, he doesn’t want to talk about, I’m afraid to look.

My heart just skipped a beat and I feel sick, look, I asked if this pic is from my mom and he said “Not specifically..” I don’t believe this.

I asked if the baby will make it, and he said “I’m sorry her belly shrank completely after this,”

She’s apparently gone, my mom, I don’t believe it but, he said she had jumped from her window and passed. She knew Dad was gone and thought we were gone too, Max and I were apparently listed as dead. She did this after her belly shrank according to this guy. I don’t believe him,

We are all headed into a hidden bunker type thing, apparently their helicopter was completely trampled by, this, the WEHO man sent everyone in our group this picture taken on location. I found it completely weird how dark it is, not to mention this is the dinosaur from earlier.

Going deeper, can’t see a thing but they can, the one in the back has Max in their arms

Bailey Kamiński here! Thanks for reading through my art project for my second semester of High School, the photos are all drawings. Everything is fine in my life and none of this was real. God bless!
(Might delete all this later lol)
