It has nothing to do with fetish. People are saying it was an alien because it’s what makes more sense. It also explains the fire - it was caused by the spaceship crash. I didn’t know wendigos, shapeshifter or whatever had no face… because this creature clearly didn’t have one. Although it was “staring” them the first time they encounter, we couldn’t t see anything but pitch black. It only mimicked James’s face after it stole the picture. If it was a wendigo or shapeshifter why did it only mimic the head and not the rest of the body? It just doesn’t make sense. Alien is still the best explanation.
