Goblins

Just in time for Halloween . . . Okay, I know that I'm a month early, but my youngest one has been trying to pick out a Halloween costume since July, so I've been in the Trick-or-Treat frame of mind for a few weeks now . . . I stumbled across Goblin Sharks.

Now, if you want a scary Halloween costume, dressing up like one of these guys would do it. It has a long, trowel-shaped, beak-like snout, which is much longer than any other shark's snout. And, in fact, the goblins in the Harry Potter movies bear a striking resemblance to mummified remains of the sharks.

Some people have called this the "ugliest living fish," and if you want to know why, check out this link: http://dsc.discovery.com/sharks/goblin-shark.html
