"So tell me, what's your deal? You know, besides obliterating the dimwits who summoned you and looking disgusting in a dead baby suit."

Behind the door is a wall. An infinitely tall, infinitely long wall. Made of bodies. My bodies. Beyond the Door’s threshold, are hundreds of Twilight Sparkles; slender, elegant alicorns, shriveled up crones, blank-flanked fillies, colts, even newborn foals, still attached to their umbilical cord and covered in birth fluids. All welded together into a squirming, screaming wall... Some of the Twilights resemble my mirror universe counterpart, some are covered with scales, others have multiple heads. Some have no heads. Some have heads in nooses or heads with horrific wounds. All are in pain. The wall bends in my direction. A thousand Twilights reaching out towards me, welcoming another sister to the fold.

"The twisted faces of the damned, piled high, and cloaked in malice!"
— The Ancestor on encountering The Collector, Darkest Dungeon (2016)
"The Unburied are formed from human corpses that were flung together into mass graves without a proper burial. This hideous amalgamation of bodies decomposes together into one being, bound by some foul magic. For all my knowledge, I could only flee from it... and I would expect any other sensible person to do the same."
— Abd al-Hazir's notes on the Unburied, Diablo III (2012)
Visual Novels
It's a lump, nay, a mishmash of human bodies. It almost looks like a giant act of coordinated group gymnastics. It is an unholy combination of human bodies that have been combined in ways nature never intended. By comparison, Paradise Lost might be disgusting to look at, but at least it's distinctly inhuman and alien in nature. But in this case there is no such comfort to fall back on. The sight before Minori is vileness born from humanity. [...] Everything about it is clumsy and unsightly, like it's been patched together on the spot. It's irrational, absurd, and offensive. It's something that should not exist, no matter what.

"How many times, FromSoftware, are you gonna fall back on 'monster made up of multiple bodies smashed together'? It was cool when Castlevania did it, now it's getting old. It just makes me wonder if the bodies ever argue over who has to be the ass."

Description: SCP-3456 are a group of quadrupeds resembling horses and other equines. Individual instances deviate significantly from other equines, particularly due to the lack of hair, presence of three-toed hooves, thick translucent skin, and either single or multiple human torsos fused to its back in addition to the normal equine head attached to the horse's body.
