Lurker (silent hill)

They appear as bald humanoid monsters with huge claws. Their legs are fused together or bound by layers of dead skin, so they drag them uselessly behind them. Their faces are blank save for a huge, vertical slit down the middle of their heads, filled with horrific teeth. Most notably their wrists are severed and a series of three, sickle-like blades are grafted on to the stubs of their arms. They use their arms to crawl and attack.

They slowly move about by crawling on their hands, dragging themselves forward. However, they attack with alarming speed. They swipe at you with their long claws, and, when at a medium distance from you, lunge out and knock you down. As such, they are best dealt with at either long range or in melee, to avoid their most devastating attack. They don't have much stamina, however, they have a tendency to crawl out of small hiding places and ambush you, there is also a small chance that when their heads are chopped off, they can still manage to swipe one more time before death. They are located in the Silent Hill streets and in flooded buildings, so beware of water in buildings as they can appear quite suddenly and attack
