The '''shambling horror''' is a monster that appears in [[EvilHack]].

==Encyclopedia entry==
{{encyclopedia|
Despite its eldritch appearance, the shambling horror is
among the most harmless inhabitants of the Dungeons of
Doom. Many adventurers who have returned from the depths
can attest to the varied yet innocuous aspects of this
creature. It is speculated by some that the shambling
horror may occasionally possess abilities that are quite
lethal, but if this is true, no one has yet observed
them and survived to document it.
