Four names, no fabricated stat blocks
The Slither, Deep Ones, and Shadows are consecutive sentences in the Steam about text. That is the entire official combat roster with verbs attached. Grindmaws appears in a Frogwares YouTube title, not in that about paragraph, which is why the trailer sits on this page instead of being treated as community slang. Unnamed things in stills — the crawling library creature on the Survive plate, the multi-armed courtyard body — stay unnamed.
Deep Ones are the only foe tied to a place: official news and the Fish Market trailer copy put them in that district. Shadows “bend space and test nerves” is the whole mechanical hint; there is no official blink-range number. The Slither “animate the dead” is likewise a verb, not a summon cap. If you need the Fish Market still, it lives on Flooded Arkham because that plate is registered to the location route.

Unnamed screenshot creatures stay unnamed
The library crawler on the Survive Arkham plate and the multi-armed courtyard body on steam-ss-07 are official images without official taxon names. This file will not assign them Slither, Deep One, Shadow, or Grindmaw just because they look wet or many-limbed. Grindmaws exist as a trailer title; until Frogwares prints a bestiary line, that is the whole official fact.
A complete enemy encyclopedia would need HP, damage, and categories. The launch store does not publish those fields. Competitor wikis that invent families from demo footage are not a source. Use this page to check a name before you trust an unofficial bestiary, then go back to the loop on Survive Arkham when you actually have to spend shells.
Meat for the Grindmaws reel
The extended gameplay upload is titled Meat for the Grindmaws and is the only first-party sentence that prints that name. It is not a Steam about-paragraph taxon with a verb attached. The facade on this page is bound to that Frogwares watch ID (w1gvlvMA4pY). Overview, Welcome To Arkham, and Launch stay on the hub and on Release and Platforms and Calvin Rafferty so this route does not steal those video ids.
Deep Ones remain the only foe tied to a named surface: official news puts them at Arkham Fish Market, and that still lives on Flooded Arkham. Shadows “bend space and test nerves.” The Slither “animate the dead.” Those three verbs plus the Grindmaws title are the whole official combat vocabulary. There is no HP table and no blink-range number on the captured store pages.
