The goblin shark is what be called a "living fossil". It belongs to the order of Lamniformes (mackerel sharks), family of Mitsukurinidae.
The goblin shark is an apex predator meaning it is at the top of the chain the head honcho. It east all the deep sea creatures so.. hope it helps.

The Goblin Shark (Mitsukurina owstoni) is a deep-sea species and would be very unlikely to come into contact with people.
We don't really know because goblin sharks are rare. And they live real real deep down in the ocean.
Predators of the goblin shark include larger sharks, such as great whites or tiger sharks, and possibly some deep-sea predators like sperm whales. However, due to its deep-sea habitat and elusive behavior, the goblin shark doesn't have many known predators.
The population of goblin sharks is currently unknown. They are deep-sea creatures that are rarely encountered by humans, making it difficult to estimate their population size accurately.
Goblin sharks tend to be big nosedHere is a link that will take you to a picture of a goblin shark: http://www.Flickr.com/photos/segana/210494689/Goblin sharks (Mitsukurina owstoni) are one of the most weird shark species, along with the Megamouth shark (Megachasma pelagios) and other strange deep sea sharks, most probably many others still unknown to marine science.Its very long snout and the strange protuberant jaws are typical of long ago extinct shark species from the Cretaceous period.The Goblin shark is considered a «living fossil».I would advise you to search in the internet for pictures, and judge for yourself...
Some dangerous deep sea creatures would include: the giant squid, frilled shark, anglerfish, and goblin shark. Most deep sea creatures pose no threat to humans as they are located at depths in which you would need a submarine to reach.
Sharks live in shallow pools in the ocean because that is where they mostly eat.
The shark you are referring to is likely the Goblin shark. Known for its distinctive long, pointed snout and unusual appearance, the Goblin shark is a deep-sea species that is rarely seen by humans. It inhabits depths of around 100 meters (328 feet) to over 1,200 meters (3,900 feet), primarily in the waters off Japan, though it can be found in other deep ocean regions. Its unique adaptations make it a fascinating subject for marine biologists.
The shark you are referring to is the Goblin Shark (Mitsukurina owstoni). This deep-sea shark is known for its unique and distinctive protrusible jaws, which can extend forward to snatch prey. The "spear" you mentioned is actually the shark's elongated snout, which is covered in specialized sensory organs to help it detect and capture prey in the dark depths of the ocean.
The gestation period for a goblin shark is estimated to be around 1-2 years. However, the exact duration is not well-documented as these deep-sea creatures are difficult to study in their natural habitat.
