Large-sized Lovecraftian mystery

Habitat:
Found growing under an oak tree in North West Georgia.

This fruit body appeared as a large-sized contiguous mass. I could not discern where, or if, the mushroom separated into individual structures. The overlapping nature and fluidity of the flesh made it difficult to discern where the stem was, if one existed at all. The main "cap" I would describe as an inverted nipple, if you are familiar with nipple-y shrooms then perhaps this would be considered a belly button. The gills were quite large, but no spore print was taken. I let this monster continue it's slumber.



The most recognizable characteristic I would readily acknowledge is it's size, this beast is huge! A 22 oz was tenuously rolled into the shot just for scale, and as you zoom into the image you can see the acorns it wears as regalia.

I fear sleep, suspecting in a nightmare it might come to take me. My only hope is that I might call out it's name, somehow halting it's horrid expanding encroach.

Maybe an old rotten Laetiporus?

Omphalotus? Perhaps Omphalotus shoggoth, the decadent remains of formerly civilized Omphalotae?
