The characters of a story are confronted by a large tentacle or appendage of an unseen, bigger monster who's threatening them or binding them where they stand. However, whether for deliberate suspense or lack of budget, the tentacled monster will never appear, even if the heroes manages to hack off/harm the tentacle. This is usually played, as said above, for suspense and possibly horror. Of course it's not strictly limited to tentacled monsters: It can be played with a gigantic arm or leg belonging to an unseen beast, but usually Stock Ness Monster types are quite popular. Sometimes it even looks like the tentacle is the actual monster. In case of giant Man-Eating Plant the plant itself may act as a tentacle of sort. |

The Empire Strikes Back: The Wampa. In both versions of the film, it's glimpsed first as a suddenly appearing, roaring face with a mouth full of teeth, and then a big ol' arm that attacks Luke and then his Tauntaun. We later do see the full creature very briefly. The Special Edition shows more of the Wampa in its cave, as opposed to one decent glimpse the original version gave. In a deleted subplot that involved a Wampa running loose inside Echo Base before the Rebels managed to trap it in a side room, there's a literal interpretation of the trope name in the form of a Call-Back or Brick Joke (whichever you prefer), when some intruding Snowtroopers get tricked into going and opening the door. The Wampa's arm shoots out, grabs one (who we'll call Private Wilhelm), and drags him in, whereupon Private Wilhelm's companions quickly close the door, looking as confused as Faceless Mooks can look. |

The My Teacher Is an Alien series introduces "Big Julie", a massive alien who fills an entire room. Opening the door will reveal nothing but a massive eyeball filling the whole door frame. However, Julie is able to maneuver to some degree, as it can turn around enough to put its mouth at the door instead, allowing it to be fed buckets of swamp water. | |

In the SNES game based off of The Pagemaster, the gigantic fist of Frankenstein's monster will emerge from holes in the wall to try and pound Kevin into oblivion. Only the big fist is ever seen, never the entire monster, and, judging by the hand's scale versus that of Kevin, the whole monster must be big enough to fight King Kong! | |

In the short story "The Moving Finger" from Nightmares & Dreamscapes, the protagonist is confronted and attacked by a bizarre, multijointed finger poking out of the drain in his apartment's bathroom sink. After cutting it off, he starts thinking about the creature to which it must have been attached. Eventually, the police arrive, and something starts lifting the toilet lid. The officer goes to the toilet to investigate, and the story ends. | |

In The Giant Claw, we only see fuzzy photographs and what turns out to be the monster's feet for a few scenes before seeing the full creature. The studio likely wanted to downplay the monster's appearance because it was so low-budget. | |

From [PROTOTYPE], we have the Hydras, which are enormous tentacles with giant jaws that they use to throw objects (most commonly cars and trucks). Anything below the tentacle is a mystery, but there are hints they are somehow connected to Elizabeth Greene, or at least the giant bloody entity she uses to fight against Blackwatch and Alex. | |

Audiences doesn't see what kind of monster said claw is attached to, but there's a tie-in artbook called The World of Kong: A Natural History of Skull Island where turns out said claw belongs to a Giant Crab called a Deplector. | |

"Reapervines" (and similar tentacles) in the Metroid Prime series are stated to be appendages of some larger creature, but said "larger creature" is never actually encountered. | |

The Thames Monsters from Nightmare Creatures are depicted as large, tentacled heads attached to a single, even larger tentacle on the surface of the Thames, which will use their limbs to lash out at players from a distance. After killing them however, the tentacled heads simply sinks into the water and nothing else is revealed about the monster. | |

Ultra Series Return of Ultraman: An episode involves Jiro being trapped in an abandoned space station, and constantly being threatened by the snapping pincers of some unseen kaiju. It turns out those are the pincers of the crab-like monster Yadokarin, who finally reveals itself in the final battle. Mizunoenoryu from Ultraman Gaia first appears as separate dragon heads all over the city, which is later revealed to be part of the titular monster's separate tail. |

Dungeons: the sequel has a Demon trap consisting in a massive tentacle poking out of the ground, best placed in the middle of a 3x3 room, that flails at intruders for a while, and can be powered up into a more massive, shelled version. The expansion adds the Undead, who have a similar trap in the form of a gigantic skeletric arm. The following game has the tentacle as a researchable spell that blocks a corridor tile and lashes at heroes. | |

Going into the Unknown have you coming across dead humans from the viral infection, and sometimes long, fleshy tentacles from some unknown creature will shoot out from the corpses to attack you.

In a deleted subplot that involved a Wampa running loose inside Echo Base before the Rebels managed to trap it in a side room, there's a literal interpretation of the trope name in the form of a Call-Back or Brick Joke (whichever you prefer), when some intruding Snowtroopers get tricked into going and opening the door. The Wampa's arm shoots out, grabs one (who we'll call Private Wilhelm), and drags him in, whereupon Private Wilhelm's companions quickly close the door, looking as confused as Faceless Mooks can look. | |

They can only be avoided while you take aim at the Demon King with the dragon fireworks. In the second game, you're trapped in a haunted corridor by the ghost hag, who sends gigantic demon hands periodically smashing through windows trying to snatch you. |

Dragon's Lair featured a room which is gradually filled by the green tentacles of a massive monster from upstairs. Also the "Eyeworms" in the moat behaves much like tentacles. | |

The cave of the Rat Demon in Oriental Legend has an area where from a hole in the background, the tail of some unseen giant rat monster will stick out and pull a Tail Slap on you until you sever it. You don't get to fight (or even see) the rest of the rat monster though. | |

The monster living under the cornfield in the Lamentations of the Flame Princess adventure Tales of the Scarecrow is a sort of mix of types 1 and 2 - the GM knows what the beast looks like (as there's a diagram in the book) but unless the players decide to dig up the whole field all they'll ever see of it are its tentacles. | |

Fatal Frame II has ghosts that grip on the twins and attempt to drag them away. They mostly appear on the bridge that connects to the Kurosawa residence and, even though Mio can photograph them to make them go away, they only appear as hands phasing through the bridge. The first installment also had ghostly hands coming out of the floor, but they were extremely rare-to-see entities. | |

You'll need to move fast to avoid getting sliced apart by the claws, but even after you completed the level you never get to see what kind of monster those claws are attached to... | |

While visiting Halloween Town in Kingdom Hearts: 358/2 Days, Roxas is attacked by several "Tentaclaws" that eat Heartless. Eventually, he finds their main body, the Leechgrave Heartless. Exactly how the Tentaclaws connect up to the Heartless's vines isn't shown as they tunnel through the ground to get to their (fixed) locations. That said, if one does manage to swallow Roxas during the boss fight, he's seen moving up the nearest of the Leechgrave's vines via Dinner Deformation to be spat back out through its flower. | |
