Residence Massacre The Spider — Night 3 Head

The Spider is the detached head of The Worker after the lodge mutation on Night 3. The headless body is The Husk (Mutated Worker). Together they hunt until 6 AM. If your squad only says “Worker,” you will miss mark callouts and die under a bed in a broken cabin. This page is the Spider half. Body kiting, shotgun immunity, and Flare Gun notes sit on The Worker. Place 14437001043. Online co-op. Night 4 is not out.

Lore overlap: Night 3 and The Bunker run the same clock. After you clear bunker ventilation you can hear a door break and scream — that is the lodge mutation happening in parallel, not a second Spider in the bunker.

What The Spider does

• Marks a player. Marked = The Husk becomes aggressive, destroys that cabin’s door, and if the cabin is already wrecked it grabs you from under the bed.
• Attacks through windows and holes. Static / stare rules differ from Night 1 Larry — do not treat Spider like a window flashlight scare.
• Jumps / lunges. A connected lunge is about 40 damage and applies a mark. Spider Sense badge: after the jump, sprint left or right. Standing still is a free hit. Shotgun shots can scare it off a window or hole; that is not the same as Husk shotgun immunity on The Worker.
• Snowball (Blizzard / Graves stacks) slows The Spider — Sharpshooter is the “hit it with a snowball” badge. You can still earn Sharpshooter out of season if snowballs exist via Undead Pumpkins on Graves + Blizzard (oversight that survived).
• Flare Gun can scare The Spider. It will not delete the Husk problem if you are already marked in a ruined cabin. Shop items.
• Cabin lights on slow a break-in. Bloodmoon paints red pupils, speeds attacks, and keeps cabin 4 out of order no matter the party size. Modifiers.

Clean Escape is survive Night 3 without The Spider jumpscaring (marking) anybody. That is a squad discipline badge, not a solo hide in cabin 1 all night.

Cabin rules when Spider is up

1. Prefer a pristine cabin. Broken door = bed is not a hide.
2. If you are marked, rotate before Husk arrives. Call “marked, leaving 2”.
3. Every second shotgun shot lures Husk to that cabin even without a mark. Hide under the bed after even shots. Spider mark on top of that is how pubs wipe.
4. Stay off the main path. Trees snag Husk; they do less for a flying head — keep moving.
5. Trail cameras exist so the player who is not kiting can call Spider position. Solo: you cannot watch both — Solo or bring Radar if the shop copy is legal on Night 3 for your loadout.

Home Wrecker is the opposite flex: let Husk destroy every cabin door after marks. Do that on purpose, not by accident on a Lakeview Camper first clear.

Modifiers and reskins

Night 3 Graves and Blizzard change Husk more than Spider (Headless Horseman / tree arms). Spider still marks. Christmas 2025 teasers showed a Spider blizzard reskin — treat visuals as cosmetic unless a patch note says otherwise. Christmas 2025. Purgatory is a Bunker Bloodmoon badge (Vessel outfit), not a Spider form.

Undead pumpkin packs on Graves do not make Spider an Undead. Flare Gun still follows the “no Undead” rule on those adds, not on Spider itself.

Co-op vocabulary

Call	Meaning
Marked	Spider tag — expect door break
Jump	Dodge left/right for Spider Sense
Cabin dead	Door gone; bed unsafe
Rotate 3	Move to cabin 3 now
Don’t second-shot	Even shotgun will pull Husk

Easy Trigger is three shotgun hits on Mutated Worker (Husk), not on the head. Big Brother is 30 seconds of Husk on camera, not Spider.

The Worker was your friend at the factory. The Spider is why you do not stand in the doorway to screenshot the head.
