Lurking Nightmare

The Lurking Nightmare is a Shadow Creature exclusive to Don't Starve Together, introduced in the From Beyond updates.
There is a 14% chance for a Lurking Nightmare to spawn from a Nightmare Light or Nightmare Fissure during the Nightmare Phase (31.5% chance when a Shadow Rift is open), regardless of the player's Sanity.
When killed, they drop 2-4 Nightmare Fuel (when Shadow Rift is open, 1-2 Nightmare Fuel and 2-3 Pure Horror).
== Behavior ==
The Lurking Nightmare can perform an attack dealing 50 damage.
If hit by a player, it will perform an attack in which it splits itself into 2 shadow pillars on either side of the player and shoot towards them dealing damage unless dodged.
When Shadow Rifts are open, the Lurking Nightmare receives Planar Entity Protection and deals additional 20 Planar Damage. Its attack will also knock back the character, even from a Beefalo.
== Trivia ==
* The Lurking Nightmare was added in the Depths of Duplicity update.
