Description

"Time travel is a risky business, and the Hunters of the Cambrian, as they called themselves, knew the risks they bore as they descended into the gate to tackle the mighty aliens of the Burgess seas.

Exactly what went wrong we don't yet know. Some say they took one trip too many, some that they stayed too long. A timid few held that they were punished by the primeval gods and goddesses of the sea for their arrogant goals.
Whatever the case, one by one, the men and women who set out to conquer the ancient beasts just stopped returning. Those sent to search for them reported no trace of their presence in the choppy primitive seas.
There are some, however, who claim to have seen shapes moving in the putrid fog. Shapes of men, but men moving with an eerie strangeness, seething with inhuman hate beneath the waves. Years of being lost in the arcane depths of the early seas had warped them, sanded away their humanity and replaced it with something else. They wander across the the benthic mud, remembering nothing of their lives save the desire to hunt. The overwhelming, psychotic desire to hunt.

But hey, enough chitchat, welcome to Cambrian time tours! The technicians will be assisting your in your jump shortly."

Have you heard of Bogleech? The author of the website holds an annual creepypasta competition, and I think this would make a great one!
