Horror heads or screaming heads are forever rotting detached heads whose eye sockets have grown into mouths, which it uses to scream haunting attacks. Where the original mouth was this monstrous creature now harbors six strong sprawling spider-like legs which enable it to scuttle up walls and dodge incoming attacks. No one is quite sure why these creatures exist, but some believe that they are created by dark forces that rip away the heads of corpses and inhabit them, over time developing into unholy, gruesome, screaming entities. Undead Nature. A horror head doesn't require air, food, drink, or sleep. |
