The sirenhead, what makes you think of when those words are actually combined. The almost really monster that is seen in every war and wars zone or don you think about the nerds playing on the computer having a good time? That might be a whole world different!
I personally don’t think this is just an internet only obsession though most of it including this blog entry is on the internet like with the latest of news and other information. Where do you expect to gather intelligence these days but mostly on line and in books! Would you like to know (and probably do) that sirenhead was a world word 1 world war 2 folklore that was many soldiers though they seen when the mustard gas was dispersed into the air. Sounds pretty traumatic just having mustard gas out in the air you breath as you fight…. But then what about the hallucinations that cone with the toxic gases, what will that form. Enter the 48’ monster cryptid that we know as sirenhead! Two air raid sirenhead stuck on a rotting mummified and emaciated humanoid body lumbering around emitting loud noises and eating people. Well this creature as gotten more elaborate as the wars themselves got more intricate as well. The story getting disproportionate as the poor monster’s limbs though someone would stick to the mustard gas hallucinations something gas that can cause also blindness and death if worst case scenario! But the mild symptoms being like with any toxin…hallucinations and other nasties…. Tough I do believe this monster was popular on the internet by Trevor Henderson, a hero of mine to be honest.
A man who creatively creates monsters as sad as they are scary and troubling! This monster was created just before the Covid pandemic and the war in Ukraine, both unfortunate events in hour history. Which leads you to think…. Is this piece of art and powerful omen of things to come. As if to say that we can’t get to comfortable on this planet or at least not peacefully. Well I thinks so as this thing was a war only monster until Trevor Henderson tapped into it thus popularizing it. I must say that is a bit of an omen this piece of art and folklore, through I think the folklore as been around since the First World War. It also an ominous warning of the future! That with war comes death, dosease and trauma!
That being said, it is an allegory about how we are treating each other and the planet, it also an allegory of how traumatic events affect the human imagination and psyche! As well explore the forest with sirenhead, we see that it is a heathen, a country (rural dweller) that haunts the forests and fields at night and stays still with the day light. It is nit to far of stretch if the imagination that this could be real!
Personally I think this story of a wartime monster brought on my PTSD and mustard gas seems to hold water with what whatever message Trevor is trying to say! This thing is about as real as a nightmare. That being said I found that something looked similar to sirenhead while driving and having a pissy day. That being I thought I saw the thing, sirenhead, near my home town of Almonte as I was driving in the sticks. That being I should have brought my phone or iPad to take the damn picture, but was it real…. No! That being said I still think in my mind -which I don’t use half the time - was real! But I just thought that. And I soon went to port elmsly to pick up a friend and I swore to god I saw it again….both times I thought I saw the sirenhead was when I was in a bad mental space.
That being, I was still traumatic form the other situations in my life: the fact that I had a crappy childhood and the fact that my brother was a complete shit. Though the kid in me thinks it is real! The sirenhead is just a figment other people’s imagination including the brilliant Trevor Henderson who could be doing this for fun and /or to warn people about what this world is coming too.
I think we need to heed Trevor and his arts warning about the way we are treating each other and how this will effect this world whole. If there is more war there will be no more for us as a specie species….we will be extinct too! But this is just my interpretation on this art! Tune in for more cryptid and monsters tomorrow and my daily thoughts!
