Hugo hates octopi.
"These animals are phantoms as much as monsters. They are proved to exist and yet are improbable. . . . They are the amphibians of death. Their improbability complicates their existence. They touch on the frontier of human consciousness and populate that chimerical boundary region. You deny the existence of the vampire, and the octopus appears."
Pages and pages of this.
