SpongeHenge is a group of giant stone statues of SpongeBob. They are built by SpongeBob in the episode of the same name.
Development[]
They were built because SpongeBob needed them to escape from the jellyfish that would not leave him alone. They refuse to leave him alone because a strong wind is blowing and it makes a tune when it blows through SpongeBob's holes that the jellyfish seem to love. The jellyfishes' interference prevents SpongeBob from going about his day.
SpongeBob is forced to take refuge in a cave where the wind does not blow. SpongeBob waits for the wind to stop blowing, to no avail. He eventually creates a stone carving of himself out of insanity. When SpongeBob blows into one of its holes, he discovers that it made a tune. When he tries to use it to distract the jellyfish, it only makes a shrill noise that made them angry.
SpongeBob concludes that he needed to make another stone carving of himself in a different size, but he does not know how big to make them, so he makes a bunch of them. He ends up making a bunch of large ones and puts them in a circle.
Their tune is perfect and the soothing melodies they produced are successful in distracting the jellyfish, allowing SpongeBob to finally make a hasty retreat.
Future[]
3,000 years later, a race of light purple aliens is seen and SpongeHenge is now a tourist attraction. The aliens do not know who built the henge or why they were built; they only know that their tune causes the annual migration of jellyfish to fall in love with the sound. SpongeBob's laugh can be heard in one of the statues.
