Cowards at heart, Soul Suckers are the souls of mummified corpses laboring under an ancient curse. They seek out the weak and helpless, like infants and the elderly, to feast upon so that their predations will go unnoticed. Many mysterious crib deaths have actually been Soul Sucker attacks, and just as many elderly have died under curious circumstances. Still, few people care enough to ask.

Stalking Grounds:
|
Old folks homes, hospitals.

Physical Description:
|
Soul Suckers look like walking mummies. Only they don't walk, they float. And you can see through them. They're more like ghost mummies in that case. Dessicated, creaky, and just plain ugly, Soul Suckers want to get up close and personal to feed...and that's exactly what you DON'T want them to do.

|
Cravings:
|
Soul Suckers treat souls like lollipops. They feed on souls, but they're pretty lazy too. So they feed on easy-to-eat souls, specifically those of the weak and infirm. They're the lame bullies of the slasher world.
|
|
Behavior:
|
Soul Suckers pick and choose their prey carefully, revealing themselves only to their victims, preferably alone and in bed. Because they tend to haunt places where the weak cannot defend themselves, even if they are able to communicate about an attack, nobody believes them. Remember the last time your crazy Uncle Bob told you about how a ghost mummy tried to suck his soul out of his ass? No? We didn't think so.

|
Danger:
|
It's ironic that Soul Suckers are potentially one of the most deadly breed of slashers. What they lack in physical presence they make up for with their soul sucking powers. If pushed, a Soul Sucker will grapple a victim and then plant its kisser in the right spot. POOF! Before you know it, you're hacking up soul.

Tactics:
|
Taking Soul Suckers out with conventional weapons is challenging, to say the least. Fire works well enough, but that requires them to be physical when you light the match. Probably the best way to take out one of these things is to stake out an old folk's home and wait. A book of spells might do the trick, but the PRU does not officially endorse any such nonsense. If you really want help, we recommend freelancing the job out to the idiots who hunt ghosts, the International Center for Ethereal Containment and Control.
