The Balding Menace shown in an early version of the elevator scene.


The Balding Menace is a humanoid Monster that is kept in the Facility. it was not listed on the whiteboard, but was released during the System Purge- only being seen through CCTV cameras.

Physical Description and Attributes[]

The Balding Menace represents an average adult, bald male. He has pale blue-gray skin and is wearing what appears to be a butcher's apron or some form of lab coat. Since he does not display any supernatural characteristics, its likely that the Balding Menace suffers from some sort of extreme mental illness, such as schizophrenia, which causes him to lash out in violent, manic episodes.

It is unknown which item in the cellar would summon him, but it is likely that a butcher's apron or something similar would work.

Appearances[]

Before the Purge, he is shown violently running around in his cube cell, kicking and hitting at the walls repeatedly. During the Purge, he is seen attacking two workers in a stairwell on one of the monitors. In an early version of the elevator scene, two Balding Menaces can be seen in different cubes- since they are identical in appearance and seen in the exact same pose, it is probable the image of the first was duplicated just to fill an empty cube.

Inspiration[]

The Balding Menace could very well be a depiction of ESAM, a professional Super Smash Brothers player and resident of Florida. This is not confirmed by any canon lore as of the writing of the article.
