The Creature is the main antagonist of Local 58 episode You Are On The Fastest Available Route. It is an enigmatic humanoid creature that dwells in the middle of a forest. In 2014, an unnamed driver's car was led to the creature by his GPS, which seems to have been compromised during his drive.
Kris Straub has clarified that this creature is "an emaciated figure with a deer head and antlers," but that the amount of visual filters he applied in the video made it impossible to make out.[1] Straub later showed the unfiltered image file of the creature on a Twitch livestream, which also revealed that Straub had labeled the file "deer."[2]
Synopsis
After proceeding down an unnamed road in the middle of a forest, the navigation instructs the driver to come to a stop and turn off their headlights in 300 ft. The driver does so, and sits in the darkness for some time. Suddenly, a monstrous roar can be heard. The driver quickly flashes his headlights, briefly illuminating the creature in the distance. The driver then driving quickly through the forest and trying to escape as the navigation first tells them their destination is behind them before telling them they are rapidly approaching it. Another roar can be heard, and the camera cuts to show the car has crashed.
It is implied that the Unnamed Driver was killed either by the creature, which pursued him, or him crashing the car while being pursued.
It is also implied that the Unnamed Driver’s destination was actually the creature itself, which matches up with the GPS's directions has he is approaching it and driving away, suggesting the creature can move extremely fast. However, it is also possible that the road’s shape allowed the creature to catch up to him quickly by cutting him off at a turn due to the GPS specific route.
Trivia
- The creature's head looks similar to the second creature from Show For Children.
- It is unclear if or how the creature in the forest is related to the Moon.
- It is possible that the creature is from an unknown party that hijacked Local 58 TV station in Contingency, Skywatching, and Weather Service. If this is true, this would make them an extraterrestial species.
