Wallpaper-like camouflage. Spawns in groups of 1 to 6, in rooms and hallways.
Grabs you, steals whatever item is in your hand, and stuns you. If you're caught empty-handed, that's −10 sanity instead.
Fire extinguisher spray, taser, or gun all work. You can also lure one to a Bed Monster to have it dealt with indirectly, or just keep your distance until it despawns on its own. Carrying a cheap "sacrifice" item is a community trick — if it grabs the item instead of you, you lose nothing important.
