Haunting Giant Squid Surfaces in Japan and Devours Its Prey (Video)

The giant squid is a rare ocean creature. So rare, that it’s often grouped with other mythological sea beasts, such as the Kraken, Cthulhu, and merfolk.

But the giant squid is real.

Although seldom seen, giant squid sightings do happen. And one fisherman from Japan has encountered not one, but two, of the massive marine invertebrates while on his boat. Below, check out the latest giant squid sighting, a haunting encounter.

The footage comes from fisherman @yonemorikouta, but has been reposted on YouTube.
