The user u/allthedimmerswitches originally posted this in a mushroom community, which was probably the correct call. Then they were pushed to post it in r/alienbodies. Hoo boy, that was probably a mistake. They are losing their shit over this. I think it could be fungus of some kind, maybe a root, or even a deformed birth of an animal. Apparently it was found in a garden in SE England.
The alien people are all over this poor person to knock down their friends door in the middle of the night, because of course this is the biggest find ever. It’s an interesting image, but of course it’s not an alien (they’re already saying it’s a “jellyfish”).
I know there have been a lot of Alien posts lately, but I think as skeptics we should keep abreast of the latest and greatest. I mean, it’s going to come our way one way or another. I guess the OP is going to contact their friend tomorrow. Their account is going to blow up until then.
I should say that I don’t think it’s a hoax, just something not identified yet and possibly a form of pareidolia.

Doesn't really prove anything but does add some legitimacy to it:

"There used to be a curiosity shop in Newquay, Cornwall that was just the most spectacular kooky place ever. Called Puff edz, It sadly closed a few years ago, when the owner moved abroad. It was full of real skulls. from human down to rat, and had cabinet after cabinet of jars. Worthy of note were a human nose, eye and ear, bottles of snake wine, real shrunken heads and bound, pointy human skulls. After visiting four times in four years, I set my own curiosity table in my house, with old religious statues, a human skull (which I'm still considering making into a one eyed willy tee hee) a human femur, various taxidermy eyeballs, various dried lizards, moles and other random things that I have bought and had donated from friends. I still want to make a gris gris pouch and build a feegee mermaid at some point and am always on the lookout for a cheap old school glass cabinet to complete the look. Have a search of cryptozoology sites and you can really go to town. And the mix of real artifacts and built hokum props can give it a real barnum type feeling to it. If I can help in anyway, holler. I could talk about this stuff till everyone else in the rooms' heads explode :lol
p.s there is an awesome shop on Melrose Avenue in Hollywood, LA, that is brilliant for this sort of stuff, just search for necromance, Hollywood. I literally had to be pulled away from the shop everytime I walked past it:lol"
