Threat Guide
Animal Hospital enemies guide
We treat this page as the core threat roster: 8 widely documented enemy or hazard types that repeatedly show up across current community guides. The most important distinction is simple: only some threats are weapon problems, while others are awareness, item, or camera-discipline problems.
Skinwalker
Threat: The most dangerous confirmed combat threat. It is what admitted anomaly mistakes can escalate into once the fake patient gets inside the hospital.
Counter: Use the gun or taser once it becomes an active hostile. Remove it before returning to normal treatment flow.

Head Banger
Threat: A roaming disturbance enemy that drains momentum and punishes players who respond with the wrong tool.
Counter: Offer coffee rather than trying to brute-force the encounter. Multiple current community guides treat coffee as the correct answer.

Sometimes described as a hallway pursuit threat
Stalker
Threat: A roaming hallway threat built around line-of-sight pressure and sanity loss.
Counter: Respect distance, manage your route, and avoid feeding it time or attention. Current guides agree that this is not a simple shoot target.

Often described alongside wall anomalies
Hiders
Threat: A concealment-style threat associated with walls, cracks, or hidden map surfaces depending on the guide you read.
Counter: Slow down near suspicious walls or narrow routes and do not run straight through bad positioning.

Bed Monster
Threat: A high-pressure room hazard tied to beds and patient rescue situations.

Also referred to as Surgery Monster in some fan guides
Surgery Tendril
Threat: A surgery-room or Room 8 threat that punishes players who try to solve it like a normal combat encounter.
Counter: Handle the room mechanic correctly and avoid treating it like a shootable roaming enemy.

Camera Figure
Threat: A surveillance-only threat that exists to punish players who stop using CCTV as part of their normal loop.
Counter: Keep cameras in rotation and avoid treating unexplained quiet zones as safe if Camera Figure activity is active.

Sometimes grouped with “Don’t Look Up” style hazards
Mass of Eyes
Threat: A gaze-based hazard, often associated with the “don’t look up” rule in community guides.
Counter: Keep your camera angle disciplined and avoid feeding it eye contact or extra attention.
