The name
Vampyroteuthis infernalis means "Vampire squid from
hell". And vampire squid are freaky looking creatures — red with cloudy
eyes that can appear blue or blood red, depending on how the light hits
them. But appearances can be deceiving. Turns out,
the
squid from hell has eating habits more in line with those of Bunnicula.
The squids' entire diet is made of "marine snow" — floaty little bits
of algae, poop, and bacteria.
