  • I don't get something? In the second game, the Scissorman is, as far as I've figured out from the main page, Dan, a.k.a. the monstrous, giant fetus monster which chases after the main character in the first game when she stumbles into him in the dungeons. However, at the end of said chase, he was pretty clearly destroyed with fire, how can he be still around in the second game?
    • Simple. That fetus-like form you saw in the first game is Dan's protective shell made from the corpses of his victims. The fire only burned away his protective shell, not himself. Besides, the Scissormen have been confirmed by Word of God to be Eldritch Abominations, so killing them would be a little harder than it looks.
      • This is outright spelled out for the player in the Playstation port of the first title, as well. After Jennifer sets Giant Fetus-Monster Dan ablaze and escapes the area, a new bit is added to the scene where it pans over to Dan's apparent remains - and the actual, human-sized Dan emerges shortly afterward.
