Sure, yeah, you could imagine long slimy tentacles reaching out of the water and grabbing you and dragging you down into the depths, but maybe someone just wants to give you a hug.
It is said that humans have had a similar experience. There were reports of giant squid grabbing sailors out of lifeboats in Newfoundland during WW II.

As to grabbing a decapod crustacean, methinks it comes handy when your eight hands can think for themselves. (And having a beak that zincs.)

Just wait till they finally decide to come up from the depths and take over the galaxy!
All hail our cephalopod overlords!

Oh, something actually reasonably local to me. (As in less than a day’s drive away). It’s the small ones with the blue rings that humans have to worry about here though.
It wants to ‘hug the face’…
