In H. P. Lovecraft's Dream Cycle, moon-beasts are strange creatures who live on the dark side of the Dreamlands' moon. They sail black galleys between the moon and the Dreamlands to trade rubies for slaves and gold.

Moon-beasts are described as grey-white slippery creatures who most closely resemble a toad with short, pink tentacles as the end of its snout.

“For half an hour this dual battle raged in the sky, till upon the west cliff the invaders were completely annihilated.” - H. P. Lovecraft seventh of a series of illustrations I did for H. P. Lovecraft’s “The Dream Quest of Unknown Kadath”

Lunar Fauna/Cultures: a Moon-beast from The Dream-Quest of Unknown Kadath (1927) by H. P. Lovecraft. They live on the far side of the Moon in the Dreamlands.

"For they were not men at all, or even approximately men, but great greyish-white slippery things which could expand and contract at will, and whose principal shape—though it often changed—was that of a sort of toad without any eyes, but with a curiously vibrating mass of short pink tentacles on the end of its blunt, vague snout."
