Wow, I read this twice and it gave me the creeps. I live in Southern California and I have never seen anything like what you described. I would pass out! It would probably be pest to call a pest control service so at least you will know what they are. Then find out if the come only in certain seasons so you will know when to watch for them; or better still prevent them from returning.

crickets.
and if you get rid of them you will have an infestation of what it is they are eating. ie: bedbugs and body louse
