10. Cookiecutter Shark
Also called the cigar shark, the cookiecutter shark (Isistius brasiliensis) is a small, parasitic species that dwells in warm oceanic waters throughout the world, especially favoring habitats near islands. The species is called the cookiecutter shark because it feeds by gouging round chunks out of larger animals with its sharp teeth like it just ate a cookie.

9. Camiguin Cemetery
Graveyards are spooky enough on their own, on dry land, but the idea of encountering one underwater is even more unnerving. Off the coast of Cagayan de Oro in the Philippine island province of Camiguin, there’s a submerged cemetery marking the resting place of residents who died or were buried alive when nearby Mt. Vulcan erupted during the 1870s, causing part of the island to sink below sea level.

8. Elusive Squid
In recent years, scientists captured the first-ever footage of bigfin squid (Magnapinna) off the Australian coast. Known for being one of the most elusive marine species, bigfin squid are rarely seen -- in fact, there are only roughly a dozen confirmed sightings of the creature worldwide.

7. Water Ghosts
Spooky tales of paranormal encounters and an evil supernatural presence at Lake Lanier in northern Georgia (U.S.) have swirled for generations, with one popular legend claiming that the ghost of a woman in a blue dress lurks in the lake’s waters, grabbing at swimmers and divers.

6. Lake Neuchatel Shark
Situated at the base of the Jura Mountains, Lake Neuchâtel is the largest lake that sits entirely in Switzerland, and while it is beautiful it is also home to something quite creepy and surprising! A giant shark with even longer, jagged teeth!!

5. Sunken Crosses
Off the coast of La Palma in Spain’s Canary Islands, there are 40 giant sunken stone crosses that sit 65 feet (20 meters) underwater. Known as Las Cruces de Malpique or the Sunken Crosses of Malpique, they are not part of a cemetery that was consumed by the ocean.

4. Normie
A mysterious creature nicknamed Normie, widely known as North Carolina’s Loch Ness monster, is just one of several disturbing things to be found at Lake Norman, located roughly 20 miles (32.2 km) outside the city of Charlotte.

3. Cannibal Fish
In early November, the Padre Island National Seashore Park Service posted an alarming image of a black and yellow strange-looking creature known as a sargassum fish. The creature is not terribly large, but it also doesn’t look very nice, with its bright markings seeming more indicative of danger than being pleasing to the eye.

2. An Unlikely Survivor
Three days after a tugboat sank off the Nigerian coast in 2013, a survivor was the last thing divers expected to encounter during a body retrieval effort. But, much to their surprise, they found a 29-year-old man very much alive in a small pocket of dwindling air amid the wreck, which sat 100 feet (30 meters) below the water’s surface.

1. A Disturbing Grave
If you ask anyone with even a slight case of claustrophobia, cave diving sounds terrifying enough on its own. But the idea of squeezing through small, dark spaces and through long, narrow tunnels with no easy escape doesn’t stop the brave from becoming professional cave divers, and their work leads to some incredible -- and downright scary -- discoveries.
