Face Monster

The Face Monster is an enemy that can be found in the Crimson. Like other Crimson monsters, they drop Vertebrae fairly often. New players should be cautious around the Face Monster, as while it appears to be similar to the common Zombie, it is considerably more resistant to knockback, being able to hit a player even while being repeatedly attacked with most starting weapons. Despite being similar to Zombies, they will not despawn during the day. They are immune to the Poisoned and Venom debuffs.

Tips
Face Monsters are easily defeated using Spears or any weapon with good knockback and or range. Face Monsters are able to open doors much like a Zombie during a Blood Moon, regardless of whether there is currently a Blood Moon or not. As you approach them, they let out a terrifying shriek.
