Melon Heads

Connecticut
Mutant Humanoid
Melon Heads
Fig 1. Melon Heads
Highly aggressive, territorial humanoids with bulbous craniums that exhibit pack-hunting and cannibalistic behaviors in the remote woods of the Northeast.
Etymology

Named directly for their bulbous, disproportionately large heads.

Anatomy

They are small humanoids characterized by massive, hairless craniums, bulging eyes, and malformed, wiry limbs. The swelling of their heads is medically attributed to extreme cases of hydrocephalus.

Ecology

They lurk deep within the secluded, forested areas and dirt roads of Fairfield and New Haven counties in Connecticut.

Behavior

They exhibit highly aggressive, territorial behavior, frequently emerging from hiding to bite and attack individuals who wander into their domain. In desperate winter conditions, they resort to cannibalism.

Mythology

Local Connecticut legends state they are the surviving, inbred descendants of either a burned-down 1960s asylum for the criminally insane or a colonial-era family banished for witchcraft. The tales frequently feature a secluded dirt road known as 'Dracula Drive', reflecting the merging of localized oral traditions.
