The Horror Monster

𝑩𝑶𝑶 𝑴𝑶𝑻𝑯𝑨𝑭𝑼𝑪𝑲𝑨

The main antagonist of a horror movie who threatens the Horror Victims with death and Scares The Audience. The audience is usually the first to be aware of the Horror Monster's presence, even if it doesn't make a direct appearance. The Horror Victims remain oblivious of it for some time. When the "Horror" part of the Monster's name comes into play, few Victims are introduced to it at a time. They become the Horror Monster's first prey and their bodies are later discovered by the others. The Horror Victims then assign themselves the task of figuring out the Horror Monster's weakness, weaponizing it, and using it in their final conflict. The most basic Horror Monsters go around killing people commonly without a solid explanation as to why other than Evil's Gotta Evil. The Horror Victims may find it hard or impossible to kill the Horror Monster as they're plucked off one by one while the movie progresses, but until there are few (sometimes even just one) left, they'll figure it out.
