In addition to the Zombies and Ghouls we've come to know and love, you'll meet the straight-jacketed crazy. These guys are amped on adrenaline and, most likely, a concoction of Asylum "vitamins." Where's nurse Ratchet when you need her? Just keep whacking at 'em with your weapons, until they clear out.{{Bookref|MED-Prima}}

The Head Bangers in these early versions also had a facial texture. The texture is very similar to the face of [[Zarok's Beast Transformation]], meaning that one was likely based on the other.
