yummy death watch beetle

This is a beetle that makes a spoooky ticking noise that makes people think of sitting around waiting for someone to die. I mean, those spooky times where you don't want somebody to die and you know it's going to happen, not those times where you didn't like them very much and you're the sole beneficiary of their will. Anyway, it's as delicious as it is spooky, provided you're a bird.
