(Sega AM1's universe)
The following is a comprehensive list of all creatures in Sega's 1996 game The House of the Dead. Serving as the main enemies, creatures were produced by the mentally unstable Dr. Curien. After Curien went insane, he released the creatures into his mansion to slaughter his own research staff. This string of events has often been referred to as the Curien Mansion incident.
List
Most creatures in The House of the Dead are identified by both name and type number. All creatures of a certain type share similar characteristics, though differ in appearance. All canon creature names and type numbers have been obtained from the Sega Saturn manual and official game guides.[1]
Known name and type
A-type
This group consists of average-sized humanoids. Every creature except Cyril can be killed with a single headshot.
Image | Name/Type | Chapters | Description |
---|---|---|---|
Sam (A-1) | 1-4 | Weak and commonly found creature. Attacks by biting. | |
Nail (A-2) | 1-3 | Stronger variant of Sam. Attacks by swiping. | |
Cyril
