Found primarily off the coast of Japan, these chomping creatures are named after their resemblance to goblins that are found in Japanese folklore.
They're mostly known for their jaws, which they can extend a few extra inches in order to catch food, according to National Geographic.
Goblin sharks also have fang-like teeth, grow to be around 12 feet long, and can weigh up to 460 pounds.
Fortunately, they are not known to be dangerous to humans — but scientists know very little about the behavioral patterns of these sharks, which can make them even more terrifying.
