Story's a bit old, but: Giant Jellyfish Invade Japan

Same story, but Jellyfish plague hits holidaymakers is my fave.

See above.

(Holy shit, that's a big jellyfish!)

But that's not the real headline! You cheated!

I'm also partial to Invasion of the Cicada Killers.

Sorry, I was looking at another article on that story. Anyway, it doesn't count as cheating because "Austria gripped by fear of spider" is totally more awesome.

How about Venomous spiders overrunning Austria

I am most pleased by the name of the spider. Wait for it . . .

the YELLOW SACK SPIDER.

I think I have a new invective, ready-made for hurling.

OK, crabs, jellyfish, spiders, and wasps. There'll be no hyperbole left when Giant Monsters attack!

Then dry British-style understatement will be the norm. Like "Godzilla causes difficulties."

Ha!
