Mind Horror

Mind Horrors are a level 4 Second Floor mob. They use mostly psionic attacks and look like jellyfish with brains.

They are related to the Third Floor mob, Brain Boiler. [2]

Description

Mind Horrors are jellyfish-like floating brains with dangling tentacles. They are physically weak and move slowly, and their bodies have the "consistency of a jam-filled kickball"; sometimes they bounce when they hit the ground, sometimes they splatter.[1]

They have a psionic attack that does not seem to affect crawlers with high Intelligence, but causes a nearly debilitating health-sapping headache in other creatures. A crawler with an Intelligence of (3) can feel the headache before seeing the monster.[1]

Story

Book 1

Carl and Donut encounter a group of Mind Horrors shortly after entering the Second Floor as they try to find a Safe Room. [1]

Frank Q and Maggie My have a Mind Horror as their game guide who tells them that the only way to survive is to kill other crawlers. [3] When they talk, they have a deep, rumbly voice.
