!!Captain Black Fridaybeard
Originally a performer in the ''Pirates Voyage'' show in the Pirates Cove, the actors playing the captain and his crew have snapped and now command a group of equally insane performers dressed like sharks.

* ImAHumanitarian: The sharks.
* LargeHam: Fridaybeard is by far the hammiest of the Maniacs.
* {{Mascot}}: Captain Black Fridaybeard was the mascot of the Malls black Friday sale.

!!Cult Leader
An [[CallBack extremely familiar looking]] guy who's set up shop at a motel. Him and his [[VideoGame/DeadRising raincoat and green mask clad followers worship a bunch of mannequins]]. Frank walks in on one of their sermons, which leads to them attacking him.
* CallBack: What is it about mannequins and raincoats that's so enticing to the crazies of Willamette?
* FlunkyBoss: The Cult Leader himself won't directly attack Frank, just screaming gibberish about his God (or whatever the hell he worships) and letting his followers do all the fighting.
* NoNameGiven: The Cult Leader isn't given a name.

Maniacs are optional bosses that can be encountered throughout the world, think the psychopaths from other titles in the series. The crucial difference, however, is that each of of them command a posse of equally insane followers. Maniacs also generally have a mission or investigation you must complete before you can challenge them.
