Resting Horror

The Resting Horror is a passive Mob and Shadow Creature exclusive to Don't Starve Together, introduced within the From Beyond updates. It can be found in the Ruins sitting on one of the Relic Chairs and is only visible, when the Characters Sanity is low. The Resting Horror doesn't react to the character and is in a semi-dormant state. It has only 10 Health, so it dies from any attack, leaving behind a rare Blueprint for the Replica Relic Chair and 1 Nightmare Fuel. If a Shadow Rift is open, it will drop 1 Pure Horror instead.

Like other Shadow Creatures, it can only be attacked while the character is insane. Care should be taken to attack and not accidentally break the chair, which causes it to despawn dropping nothing.

If the character is insane standing close to the Resting Horror drains 40 per minute. There is no sanity drain while the character is sane.

The Resting Horror has Planar Entity Protection, so after a Shadow Rift is open general Damage hits are less effective against it. In contrast, both the planar damage hit and others damage source can effectively damage it. But because it has only 10 health, two or three hits will kill it. It respawns after 2 days on a random Relic Chair.

Trivia[]

• The Resting Horror was introduced in the Terrors Below update.
• Originally the Resting Horror required a Shadow Rift to be opened to show up. This was removed some months later in the Host of Horrors update to give the players an easier way to obtain the Blueprint for the Replica Relic Chair, as it is needed to get the Blueprint for the Sawhorse to prototype the new furniture and table decorations.
