The Freeform Trouble Rare Monster Archives - The Fearful Facts of Year Five

😈👹👺🤖!!!!!MONSTER SEASON COMMENCES!!!!!!👾👽👻🎃

Hail Horror!!!

The much dreaded month of October has arrived again like shrieking nails on the chalkboard of my very soul!!! Dark formations of forboding cumulomalicious clouds gather on the near horizon promising a relentless maelstrom of monstrosity.

What weirdness shall we witness? What lurching creatures of the decrepid swamps of the human psyche are threatening to spill forth now? Do we really want to know?

We have a sickeningly rich assortment amongst the reports that are flung across my desk. These materials within have been carefully obtained by our world class agents through sneakery, snakery, covert maneuvering, safe-cracking, breaking and entering, trickery, misdirection, cajolery, roguery, conspiracy and outright armed robbery. Through these skills and others our daring team have gained exclusive access to ancient ruins, undersea laboratories, classified astronomical charts, underground military bases, forbidden libraries, lunar outposts and all manner of confidential records.

As always kudos to our inrepid research team, I dread to peer inside these dossiers of disaster for fear of what I may behold!

The stupendous scope of our scintillating specimens is summed up by this quote from the eminent Swiss-American Biologist and Geologist Louis Agassiz:

“The possibilities of existence run so deeply into the extravagant that there is scarcely any conception too extraordinary for nature to realize.”

So brave with us if you will in the coming days and weeks as we reveal the results of this year’s intrepid investigations.

Or if you are feeling particularly courageous you can explore the riveting results from the previous four years over at the Freeform Trouble Rare Monster Archives.

😈👹👺🤖!!!!!MONSTER SEASON COMMENCES!!!!!!👾👽👻🎃

Woe betide us!

The slimy, scaly, unscrupulous claw of October has arrived once again to clasp at our wavering hearts and instill a dread so deep, so grievous, and so dark, that no light can ever hope to reach within it.

It is with the greatest of fear and trepidation that I must once more pry open the jaws of the Rare Monster Archives to reveal the ill-contents of this, The Calamitous Compendium of Year Four.

What array of monstrosities awaits us within? Who could possibly say? Who would want to? Anyone with an ounce of sense would have fled to the hills long ago. . . If you remain, I can only thank you for accompanying me on this, most perilous of journeys.

What a haul this year!

The Freeform Trouble - Rare Monster Archives Returns With Dastardly Dispatches From Year -Two

The month of October upon us and as Halloween lurches towards us with one piercing eye and an outstretched claw, it is once again time for our researchers at the Freeform Trouble - Monster Archives Team to reveal this years ghastly findings. Seen here for the first time outside of government vaults, secret collections and classified files and for your viewing pleasure the Dastardly Dispatches from Year-Two.

The image above is Recorded Sighting: #14 – Negasus the Inverticorn

“Negasus the Inverticorn Drains the Happiness and Wonderment from Mrs. Elizabeth Jeffrey Barnstaple” (1936) - Shot taken by Martin Jeffrey Barnstaple in the bedroom of their home on Bannister Street, Withernsea, U.K.

We have all heard of the magical wonder of that rare mystical animal the Unicorn. Yet thankfully many of us have never encountered or even learned of its darkling twin. Only one Inverticorn has ever been known to exist in our world and its name is Negasus. Instead of a singular distinctive glistening horn, Negasus has a deep indentation in its forehead; and it is this deep pit, between its eyes that gives the creature its name. Here exists a pure negative space, a zero point of true nothingness, which draws all joy, magic, motivation, wonder and hope out from those who peer into it. It would in fact be correct to classify the Inverticorn as a form of Equine Vampire which feeds upon the emotional life-force of its human victims.

In this incredible image we can see that Negasus having attacked its victim in her sleep is now mid-feed, draining the joy and wonderment out of Mrs. Elizabeth Jeffrey Barnstaple like it is chomping down on a tasty bag of oats. This whole event was recorded by her husband Martin Jeffrey Barnstaple who amazingly went to get his camera instead of for help; but there are those who live on Bannister Street that have suggested that Martin was involved somehow. A charge he dually denies. Yet Martin had been seen meeting with unusual robed figures, at odd hours, in strange locations. Perhaps the Inverticorn was intentionally summoned to the Barnstaple residence that fateful night. What sinister forces were at work? Who were those hooded figures? Why didn’t Martin try to help? We will probably never know the answers to these questions. . .

Announcement- The Free Form Trouble - Rare Monster Sighting Archives

Here at Free Form Trouble we scour the worlds greatest Libraries, Aquire the most deeply classified military documents and trade in the most exotic black markets to uncover, catalogue and record these rarest of beasts in the annals of our archives. Whilst (Hopefully) most of these creatures have disappeared many moons ago, We are commited to recording their details here in case we ever encounter their Ilk again. So without further ado Rare Monster Sighting #1: The Great Winged Aphyatrix.

"Allied Forces Take Cover From The Great Winged Aphyatrix" (1938) - Photographer Unknown.

This is the only surviving photographic record of this terrifying beast. Allied Troops are seen here taking cover during a chance encounter with a Great Winged Aphyatrix on the battlefield. Reaching over 45 Meters tall and with a wingspan of 30 Meters the Aphyatrix is completely flightless, but it is extremely venomous and with razor sharp talons it is capable of running at top speeds of 24km. Although they were hunted to extinction only as recently as the 1980's its already hard to believe that such frightening creatures ever existed!
