| abstract | - The Canvey Island Monster is a fish cryptid capable of spraying slime in the face of anything that threatens it. It made its first and only appearance in The Return of Tsul 'Kalu.
- The Canvey Island Monster is the name given to an odd creature whose dead body washed ashore on Canvey Island in England, November 1953. A second one washed up on the shores in 1954.
- The Canvey Island Monster is the name given to an unusual creature whose carcass washed up on the shores of Canvey Island, England, in November, 1954. A second, more intact, carcass was discovered in August, 1955. In 1999, Fortean journalist Nicholas Warren carried out an investigation into the 1954-55 sightings. He was unable to locate any official records at the Plymouth Marine Biology Association Laboratory or the National Rivers Authority identifying the creature as being a known or unknown specimen, but was able to find accounts from locals who believed the creature was an anglerfish. This determination was later seconded by Alwyne Wheeler, former ichthyologist for the Department of Zoology at the British Natural History Museum, who put forward that the creature was an anglerfish whose pronounced fins had been incorrectly described as being hind legs. __TOC__
