They're the ones that were supposed to be extinct until a few years ago, right? Goblin shark sounds cool and all, but I'd rather call them narwhals on steroids. :-D
Countess:
You are thinking of either the Ceolocanth or the Frill Shark. Both were thought extinct & somewhat recently rediscovered. Goblins sharks are Narwals on steroids? Not so much. Narwals are a fair bit larger than Gblin sharks & a good site better looking.

Good photos are hard to find on both creatures as they tend to be somewhat elusive. Just do an image search for them & you may find some better ones.
KubeSix:
I was joking, Countess :P Making a reference to both having giant horns/protrusions coming out of their head seems to have failed.
Raziel:
GOBLIN SHARkS HAD HORNS??????
KubeSix:
narwhals have a horn, goblin sharks have a protrusion...
