The Giant Snake.

Overview

The snake (蛇 Hebi?) is the midboss for stages one and two in Evil Night. Appearing in the mansion, it is the first boss encountered in the game.

Background

The snake is first encountered when the floor collapses beneath Henry Jones, Alicia Sevigny, and Joe Hamilton. They fall into a large room in which the snake reveals itself, smashing the mansion roof. Following a battle, it sustains numerous bullets to the head and neck and dies. A limbless zombie with a ball and chain then emerges from its body.

Later in the mansion, the snake reappears--this time with a more bony and off-color appearance, implying that it survived the first encounter. Henry yells at Alicia and Joe to aim at the snake's head. The snake grabbed and devoured several zombies before retreating through a hole in the roof. As the trio proceed to the upper floors of the mansion, the snake crashes through a wall for a final attack; when finally killed, its head smashes and breaks the floor, causing the three cops to fall into a library.
