A few years back a weird “monster” washed up on barren shores in Russia’s wild, wild east. It caused a bit of a fuss at the time because no one could really confirm exactly what it was. It was like those creepy Montauk monsters that washed up near Plum Island in the US. Theories and counter-theories abounded but no one was too sure what the thing was.
