 The stats for the shambling horror displayed on the right are derived from its entry in [[monst.c]], and act as a placeholder in order to ensure that no serious errors occur should a shambling horror be generated without its traits being shuffled and remapped properly.

+In [[UnNetHack]], shambling horrors are not randomly generated. They may appear by other means in the main dungeon and [[Gehennom]] and will not appear in [[Sheol]], with the exception of [[polymorph]] in both cases. Three shambling horrors are generated in [[Moloch's Sanctum]] at level creation.
