Photo of CLOSED: BIG cream and black beetle

We're in central Ohio and this was taken Wednesday evening. This beetle is about 3/4" - 1" inch long from head to the end of its wing covers. The pointy abdomen adds about another 1/4" to the total length. I am not used to seeing beetles with pointy hind ends. What is this critter? Is it even a beetle? I have my doubts!
