-Space-Eaters are a malevolent space-faring race, generally formless and incorporeal, appearing as luminous white forms like dim lightning bolts, stretched out across space, and capable of forming long, thin, temporary limbs and fingers with which to interact with matter, such as hunting for victims.  The Space-Eaters "eat" their way through space and time with an eerie droning noise, and can eat through matter as well, disintegrating perfectly round holes through material obstacles, such as human skulls (through which Space-Eaters might eat to get at the brains of their victims.)  [[Elder Sign]]s are capable of repelling Space-Eaters, as is the sign of the cross, and bright light.
