I finally have read the story. There's three "creatures" in FPW's stories that could come "close" to fitting the bill. I'll disqualify Kek immediately because he didn't have a tentacle and his story and time line does not overlap with Jacks. Next would be Mauricio, but once again he doesn't have a tentacle or quite fit the size of what Jack saw. (what little he did see) The third is the one in "Traps", and probably the closest match because of how vague the description is in both books. More than likely, it's a whole new monster.
I also think it escaped it's watery death, either by one of the sink holes or the entrance it had been using to access the underground city.
