All monsters in Lethal Company

There are a total of 19 monsters or “entities” in the current build of Lethal Company, each possessing unique characteristics and threat levels:

Snare Flea

Snare Fleas can be found hanging on the ceiling, waiting for unsuspecting players to appear before them. Once in range, the Snare Flea will jump on the head of the player (much like a Facehugger), killing them within seconds. The best way to deal with it is to have a party member attack you or dash your way to the exit to dislodge the entity.

Hygrodere

The Hygrodere is also another low-level enemy, being relatively easy to avoid thanks to its slow movement speed. The monster can easily kill you on contact, so be careful around it. Using the Boombox will distract it, sending it into a trance-like state.

Nutcracker

Resembling a large toy soldier, Nutcrackers are some of the most dangerous foes in Lethal Company. The mechanical soldier carries with it a shotgun and is also capable of melee attacks. The best way to deal with a Nutcracker is to stay completely still, as it responds to movement (with its Third Eye). Killing this enemy will drop the Shotgun.

Coil-Head

The Coil-Head resembles a mannequin with a head attached to a spring. Much like the Weeping Angels (from Doctor Who), these monsters can only move and attack the player if they break direct eye contact. Always face toward the Coil-Head when attempting to flee.

Masked

Holding the mask for an extended period of time will cause the player to be possessed, turning them hostile. The Masked will then attempt to hunt down other players, turning them into more Masked.

Ghost Girl

The Ghost Girl is one of the more intriguing monsters in Lethal Company. She will appear to a random player during your playthrough while being entirely invisible to everyone else.

Bracken

Also known as the Flower Men, the Bracken resemble large bipedal entities that stalk and hunt down players from the shadows. When in contact, they will immediately kill the player and dispose of their bodies. The Bracken can be stalled by maintaining eye contact for a short duration of time. Staring for an extended period of time will cause them to turn aggressive, however.

Thumper

The Thumper is a menacing, fast-moving creature. This monster is incredibly aggressive and possesses powerful eyesight. Interestingly, they are completely deaf. The Thumper can hunt down unprepared players in seconds but can fumble around corners.

Jester

Resembling a jack-in-the-box, Jesters are some of the most dangerous enemies players will encounter in Lethal Company. While initially harmless, the Jester becomes highly aggressive once its head emerges from the box. In this state, it will chase down the player at an incredible speed for around 5-10 seconds until it gives up and returns to a docile state.
