### Enemy Type

Clone

**The Jellien Hash-Slinging Slasher** is a myth brought to life from the rumors and a sprinkle of Jellien goo, and an enemy in Around the Clock at Bikini Bottom, solely appearing as the primary threat and main antagonist of the Krusty Krab level.

## Story

Before arriving at the Krusty Krab, the Hash-Slinging Slasher Clone was brought to life from the rumors and a tiny sprinkle of Jellien goo.

## Krusty Krab

The Hash-Slinging Slasher first appears after SpongeBob, Patrick, and Mr. Krabs leave the Krusty Krab to go to the Industrial Park. Squidward stayed behind to protect the restaurant from intruders. As Squidward relaxes, he mocks SpongeBob and co., saying that maybe they'll die and won't come back, after he finishes laughing, he spots a bus drive-by and drops off The Hash-Slinging Slasher. This scares Squidward and causes him to think this is karma for wishing death on SpongeBob and others. Squidward manages to fend off the slasher until 4:00 AM, but after that, the Slasher successfully breaks in and begins to bang on the door to the bathroom, where Squidward is hiding in a stall. The Slasher may be alone or accompanied by a Pinkie, a Prowler, or The Flying Dutchman, depending on what difficulty the level is set to. However, before Squidward can be slain, SpongeBob and others return and Mr. Krabs destroys the Jellien Slasher with his Mayo Minigun, melting and killing it.

The Hash Slinging Slasher's melted remains can be seen in ??? in the Krusty Krab section of the level, unmoved from where he died.

## Behavior

The Hash-Slinging Slasher will start outside the Krusty Krab, wandering to different entrance points of the restaurant in attempts to break in, namely the front and back doors (The latter located in the kitchen), the bathroom windows, and the basement hatch in Mr. Krabs' office. These attempts are not at all stealthy, however, as he will *thump* on whatever barrier there is until it is cleared. When the thumping sounds, the player must make haste to its source and scare off the disturbance once they find it by approaching the area he's at. Once they get close enough, the player character (Squidward) will kick the area, startling the Slasher, and causing him to dart away to find another entrance point.

If the player doesn't make it to the Slasher's location in time, he will successfully break into The Krusty Krab and head for the fuse box. There is a grace period in the Slasher's search for the fuse box in which he is not physically present (and lethal!) in the Krusty Krab, but once he makes (and breaks) it, the entire restaurant will black out, and he'll manifest inside. By then, death will be almost inevitable for the player as the Slasher wanders the restaurant, eventually tracking down and killing the player with no chance of escape.

## Trivia

* This character had originally appeared in the *SpongeBob SquarePants* episode, “Graveyard Shift”, where initially, he was mistaken by SpongeBob and Squidward as the “Hash-Slinging Slasher” of the ghost story the latter told the former earlier and they both panicked as he walked into the Krusty Krab, before stepping into the light to reveal an ordinary kid just looking to apply for a job at the restaurant.
* In his gameover screen and the Main Menu, the Slasher clone's true Jellien eyes are highlighted.
	+ Strangely enough, though, his nostrils still act like regular eyes, flaring and contracting when the player startles him, similar to squinting.
		- His nose also strangely acts like a head, since it turns to see the others returning from the Industrial Park.
* The only way the player may survive a blackout is if it strikes 4:00 before they are slain if they were particularly good about fending off the Slasher for a long while until they slipped up.
* It is unknown how his nostrils glow red, as he has no sort of light, and, presuming he looks like the actual kid, doesn't even have any red colors on him.
* When the Slasher is trying to break in through the basement hatch, the surface of the trapdoor glows red.
* The Hash-Slinging Slasher's appearance and the level itself are a homage to 3:00 AM at The Krusty Krab, an earlier SpongeBob horror game also created by Dave Microwaves Games.
* In fact, The Hash-Slinging's model is reused from 3:00 AM at the Krusty Krab.
* At the end of the 'How to Survive your Night Shift' training video, the Hash-Slinging Slasher can briefly be seen next to Squidward after the tape ends.
* If harder difficulties are selected, the Hash-Slinging Slasher clone will be seen getting off the bus with the other enemies included in the harder difficulties, except the Flying Dutchman.
