Twitching Anomaly — Animal Hospital
Visual / CCTV Detection LayerEvidence: HIGH
Quick Answer
Twitching: the patient's arms, head and neck jerk uncontrollably, sometimes with a hunched back and an unnaturally stretching neck. It can be seen directly or only through CCTV.
How to Spot It
- Arms, head and neck twitch uncontrollably.
- The neck may unnaturally stretch and elongate.
- CCTV-only variant: Camera Twitching — the patient twitches only on security camera footage.
"One of the harder anomalies to spot" — observe for at least four to five seconds to confirm.
What to Do
Reject — but watch for 4–5 seconds first, because the twitches can be very quick.
Special Mechanics & Warnings
- Fandom notes a chance the anomaly does not attack and instead walks out like a normal patient (single-source).
- Can disguise itself as a Mimic (Fandom note).
Source Disagreement
Fandom alone records a chance the Twitching anomaly does not attack and leaves like a normal patient; IGN and Beebom describe it only as an anomaly to reject. Unresolved.
