The name "vampire squid" comes from the creature's dark coloration and unique appearance, which includes large, red eyes and cloak-like webbing resembling a vampire's cape. Its scientific name, Vampyroteuthis infernalis, translates to "vampire squid from hell," highlighting its intriguing and somewhat eerie features. Despite its name, the vampire squid is not a true squid and primarily feeds on organic debris in deep-sea environments.
