A number of alien-like crabs spotted on a beach in eastern China have caught the imagination of tourists visiting the region.

Fishermen in Shandong province spotted the faces of extraterrestrial creatures on the shells of the creepy crabs, which have been named locally as the 'iron crab' due to their scary claws, reported the People's Daily Online.

The unusual crab has two giant claws and a pointed shell covered in large bumps.

Locals have not seen this type of crab before and do not know the name of the species. 

The crab's body appeared to be largely disproportionate to its claws, leading to comparisons with fictional alien Predator. 

One of the crabs had a body that only measured 2.3 inches in width, but its claws were 7 inches long.
