The chapter is, in essence, a long wait until we reach a final explosion that appears out of nowhere.

What Is The Creature That Comes Out Of The Strange Rock?

Most likely, like the rest of the alien creatures in the anthology, he is some kind of Lovecraftian being. Although we don’t know its purpose, we have seen that the creature seems immune to bullets. Additionally, he possesses destructive abilities in the form of lightning and telekinesis of some kind.

Most likely, the final scene in which we see him walking towards a city indicates that he intends to attack the rest of the people. If this is true, it could pose a threat on a national or even global scale. In most of HP Lovecraft’s stories, when someone awakens one of these ancient evils, it means that everything is going to go to waste, so it would probably end up threatening all of humanity.
