Shell Island - Part 1/4

Ignoring the dismal weather forecast, I headed out on a Guy N Smith pilgrimage to Shell Island for a couple of days this morning. This was the setting of his classic 1970's pulp horror classic novel Night of the Crabs. As we neared the place, and saw the signpost mentioned in his crabtastic book, I knew it was going tobbe a hellishly good holiday break.

It was good to see Shell Island still remembers the time of total carnage when crabs the size of cows invaded the resort lol:

And it was impossible to come away from the camping shop without this reminder of my time on the island:

These days, it looks like the local seagulls are keeping residents and visitors to Shell Island safe and sound!

I will be polite and not mention what happened in the dunes overlooking Shell Island beach in Night of the Crabs. Here I am though, just saying hi:

And doing some obligatory reading:
