These unidentified creatures are used as living booby traps by Killer Klowns, specifically for sliding poles within Klown spacecraft, and are possibly from the Klown homeworld.
Biology[]
The full appearance of this species is unknown, as only its head has been seen by Humans. Its head possesses six round, black eyes, pale pink slimy bumpy skin, and most notably, a bifurcated snout-like jaw with dozens of large, sharp teeth. These creatures are presumably carnivorous, as they have attempted to eat Humans, and their mouths are large enough to possibly eat a Human whole. Based on the shape of their heads, and the pits they're kept in, they are seemingly vermiform.
History[]
At some point in time, these creatures were used by Killer Klowns, a species of malevolent clown-like paraanthropophagic humanoids, as living booby traps held at the base of sliding poles within their ships. While unable to leave the pits, the creatures could easily eat any unwary intruder who doesn't look before they slide. In 1988, a Klown ship holding at least one of these creatures arrived on Earth. After the Klowns invaded Crescent Cove, a town in California, a group of Humans managed to infiltrate the ship, which was grounded in an amusement park. After rescuing a Human girl named Debbie Stone from Klown custody, two of the Humans, Mike Tobacco and Officer Dave Hansen, attempted to escape with her, killing a few Klowns and making their way to a sliding pole that went down several levels. Mike and Debbie went down first, but saw the creature with its mouth open at the base, jumping off before they slid into its pit. Dave joined them soon afterwards, and when he questioned why they stopped, he saw the creature bite the piece of the pole that was in its pit. The Humans then ran off, not encountering any more of the creatures. The pole creature was later destroyed with the rest of the Klowns when Dave managed to make the ship explode.
