15 Most Disturbing Looking Monsters from the Tome of Beasts 3

Here is another of our “top” lists of creatures from the Tome of Beasts 3. This time we’re sharing the most disturbing looking creatures from the book–the ones that give a shiver, not necessarily give you nightmares but they might do that too!

Because we are making the Deck of Beasts 3 (all the creatures from the book on 432 cards), Kickstarting until the 20th at 11pm US eastern time, we’ve had access to the creatures for a couple months already. In case you missed them, here are a few other articles in this series:

These explanations are ordered left to right, starting with the top row and working down:

  • Animated Offal – This is a weird mass of blood fluids and parts.
  • Birgemon Seal – A wound on a creature’s back revealing a parasite that has teeth and tentacles? Yuck!
  • Catonoctrix – Something about its head makes me think it belongs in the Upside Down.
  • Catterball – Hairless, rubbery dogs should give anyone the willies.
  • Demon, Balbazu – Like the Seal, another creature with a toothy opening on its body.
  • Giant Mole Lizard – Maybe its the rubbery looking flesh, or the snake-like frame, but in any case it is weird.
  • Glacial Crawler – This looks like a giant fluke, which any high school bio student will tell you is gross.
  • Iceworm – A chestbuster reminiscent of Alien.
  • Ley Wanderer – Speaking of Alien, this is like an alien/worm mash up.
  • Mortifera – Another toothy maw with tentacles on a torso–sensing a theme here?
  • Obeleric – An intestine-like creature–gross!
  • Offal Walker – More intestines, this time hanging out from a weird two-headed moose thing.
  • Pescavitus – A human-like face on a fish is just… inhuman.
  • Star-nosed Diopsid – Brain ear worms–giving kids the shivers since at least Star Trek II.
  • The Flesh – Almost made to be disturbing, this guy is walking flesh!
