Six Famously “Nice” Celebrities That Reddit Says Are Actually Shape Shifting Monsters
Celebrities: they make life worth living. They fill our otherwise empty and joyless lives with meaning. But are they also secretly hideous monsters? A surprising number of Reddit commenters say the answer is yes. Here are some of their shocking stories.
6. Keanu Reeves-Sea Creature
Everybody loves Keanu Reeves. Whether he’s playing that totally radical, righteous dude Ted "Theodore" Logan in the Bill & Ted trilogy or saving the world as Neo in the Matrix movies, the kindly Canadian has won the hearts of moviegoers all over the world.
Reeves is widely considered one of show-business’ nicest guys but according to Redditor u/Bobby-Sims there’s more to the popular actor than meets the eye. In a Reddit post, u/Bobby-Sims writes about seeing the John Wick icon hang out on the beach with a bunch of buddies, surfing, drinking beers and having fun.
At the end of the night, when all of the other revelers went home, however, Reeves reportedly shape-shifted into a scaly, dark grey, slimy amphibious monster not unlike The Creature from the Black Lagoon and disappeared into the ocean.
We don’t know whether Reeves became a sea monster due to some manner of witch’s curse or if he simply comes from a family of sea monsters, but we suspect that if Reeves little “secret” were to get out, it would SERIOUSLY affect people’s opinion of him, and probably not for the better.
5. Daniel Radcliffe-Godzilla
Daniel Radcliffe rose to fame playing plucky wizard Harry Potter but Reddit says that the real Radcliffe is a supernatural being as well, albeit one very different from notorious TERF J.K Rowling’s iconic master of magic.
Redditor u/BurritoPhanatic was an extra on the final Harry Potter movie and claims that the actor would spend a lot of time in his trailer while technicians set up shots.
That came to a violent and destructive end, however, when the actor reportedly transformed unexpectedly from a cute human thespian to a thirty story high, radioactive, fire-breathing monster whose existence stands as a powerful metaphor for the dangers of nuclear power.
The transformation destroyed the trailer, leaving it a smoldering wreck.
No wonder Radcliffe gravitates towards horror, science-fiction and funky genre movies. He himself is a figure of pure horror.
4. Jimmy Carter-Vampire
Redditor u/PlayFreebird69 couldn’t believe his luck when he sat down on a park bench during a walk with his dog and discovered that he was seated next to Nobel Prize winner, ex-President and all-around national treasure Jimmy Carter.
He struck up a conversation with the surprisingly chatty Georgian and was astonished when Carter revealed the secret to his longevity. While attending an occult even with longtime wife Rosalyn a few years back, he was bitten by a millennia-old vampire and transformed into a vampire himself.
At first u/PlayFreebird69 thought he was merely joking but when he revealed his sharp fangs and did not appear in a pocket mirror the Reddit buff carries around, he was convinced, particularly when Carter turned into a bat and flew away.
Apparently our most productive ex-president is also a deathless creature of the night who must feast on human blood to survive. Which is nice, because when you reach your nineties you DEFINITELY want to have a hobby.
3. Anna Kendrick-Winged demon
Who doesn’t love Anna Kendrick? She’s whip-smart, ferociously adorable, cute as a button and super talented to boot. We’d love to be BFFs with this wildly popular and universally adored actress and author even if she apparently has a double life super-fan and Redditor u/PitchyPerfect accidentally found out about.
While waiting patiently outside Kendrick’s home one night, hoping that the actress, singer and author would come out and take photographs with fans and sign autographs, u/PitchyPerfect witnessed a winged, horned demon fly out of one of the windows of Kendrick’s home with a half-eaten, still-alive animal or person in its mouth.
The monstrous figure flew around for a few minutes and then returned to Kendrick’s home, at which point it transformed back into the beautiful young actress.
Yikes! They say you should never meet your idols. Apparently, they’re right.
2. Danny DeVito-Werewolf
The diminutive, bowling ball-shaped Danny DeVito is one of our unlikeliest television and movie stars. The diminutive funnyman is easily one of our best loved celebrities as well.
DeVito may not be much in the looks or the height department but he’s risen to the top by virtue of talent, hard work, guile and drive. Oh, and it does not hurt that he’s also one of the most likable actors in film history, even when playing scoundrels, schemers and all-around shady characters.
Seemingly no one other than Bob Zmuda has an unkind word to say about the Taxi and Ruthless People star and that dude fucking sucks.
DeVito has been a household name for nearly a half century but if Redditor u/HotCocoaAddict is to be believed, the famously hirsute actor-producer-director is even hairier than he appears.
U/HotCocoaAddict claims to have spotted the It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia cut-up leaving a hip Hollywood eatery and then, when he was away from the prying eyes of the public, turn into a hideous wolf-like creature under the full moon.
The sitcom legend got out of his electric car, howled at the moon, caught a squirrel with his claws that he then devoured lustily, then got back into the car and drove off.
That’s one memorable celebrity encounter.
1. Paul Rudd- Lovecraftian monster
Paul Rudd enjoys a sterling reputation as one of Hollywood’s true mensches. So when the Ant-Man star dressed up like "Weird Al" Yankovic, another famously swell celebrity, to take his daughter trick or treating a few years back, fans were delighted.
The photos instantly went viral and have been shared online millions of times. What DIDN’T make headlines is that, according to Redditor u/TheRealFlimflamman, at one point during the evening the seemingly ageless movie star, Party Down co-creator and sometime screenwriter underwent a horrifying transformation.
The Clueless star grew hundreds of feet tall, sprouted demon wings, tentacles and bloody fangs and began shrieking an inhuman sound beyond human imagination. The boyishly hunky Avenger morphed unexpectedly into a Lovecraftian monster.
Here’s the crazy part: even after abandoning his human form, Rudd remained a lovely individual, taking pictures with fans, telling funny stories and signing autographs, which is not easy when you have slimy, octopus-like tentacles rather than hands.
Rudd’s alter-ego may be The Black Goat of the Woods with a Thousand Young but he’s just as affable as Rudd’s human side.
What a guy! Or rather, what a guy/Lovecraftian monster.
