The Fallout franchise has a variety of enemies and hazards that players will face while adventuring in the wasteland. One variety of these enemies is insect-like mutants that have been created after years of exposure to radiation for insects, and they have become horrifying creatures.
Some of these creatures include enemies such as the Radscorpion and the Bloodbug, which are all terrifying and dangerous enemies that players will need to be careful of while out on their adventures. The following creatures are creepy both in their appearance and abilities to quickly destroy their prey without remorse!
10 Cave Cricket
The Cave Cricket hops all over the place and annoys players to no end because of how easily it can maneuver around the battlefield and environment. However, it can also be quite creepy when this bug is up in the player’s face because it resembles a giant cricket that is much larger than what this bug’s size would be in real life.
Crickets can be frustrating in the real world because of the annoying sounds that they make and how they hop around; however, in the Nuka-World DLC, they become even more of a nuisance to the player.
9 Bloatfly
The Bloatfly is a large fly that will buzz around the player and attack them with its insect-like body. This enemy isn’t very difficult to take down; however, the Bloatfly can be frustrating when players are first getting acquainted with it because of its difficult to hit size and how quickly it flies around.
The Bloatfly is creepy, and the fact that it resembles a giant fly can make it one of the scariest things to encounter in the Fallout franchise.
8 Flying Ant Swarm
Most people dislike ants to some degree; however, even insect lovers will agree that a swarm of flying ants is an extreme nuisance. These creatures were introduced in the Nuka-World DLC, and they are very frustrating to deal with because of how quickly they fly around and their weird hitbox.
Although these flying ant swarms can be quite weird and creepy, they are also fun to deal with and add a unique variety to the enemies in Fallout 4.
7 Radroach
Every Fallout fan is aware of the Radroach enemy because it is iconic to the franchise and is one of the first enemies that players will encounter in every Fallout game. Even though the Radroach is quite disgusting, it also has a very interesting appearance that makes it enjoyable to fight.
The Radroach enemy usually comes in pairs of three or four, and there is occasionally a legendary Radroach that players will encounter with a swarm of these in Fallout 4. Players can easily defeat the Radroach, and that makes it somewhat less creepy than its appearance makes it out to be.
6 Stingwing
The Stingwing will get close up to the player in Fallout 4 and attack them with its stinger, dealing a large amount of damage to their enemy.
Many players can’t stand the Stingwing, and it is mostly because of its large bug eyes and creepy appearance that gives it one of the weirdest atmospheres in Fallout 4. Hopefully, this mutant will become extinct at some point in the future because it is extremely creepy.
5 Giant Ant
Similar to the flying ant swarm, the Giant Ant is an enemy from Fallout 4 that fans will encounter, and it will be absolutely terrifying because of the mutated biology of this insect.
The Giant Ant is about the size of a young child, and it can easily destroy even the toughest of wastelanders who are adventuring throughout the capital wasteland. Players should be careful when attempting to attack these enemies because they usually travel in swarms, and sometimes they will have a well-known character called the AntAgonizer around them.
4 Bloodworm
The Bloodworm jumps on its prey and sucks the life out of it to feed on its blood and body. The Bloodworm is one of the most terrifying enemies that players will encounter in Nuka-World, and although it is a very tiny enemy in general, it is horrifying because of the effect that it has on the human body.
Wastelanders that are in Dry Rock Gulch should avoid this enemy at all costs, and it is even worth not taking a trip to this cowboy park so that wastelanders won’t encounter this blood-sucking enemy.
3 Radscorpion
The Radscorpion is a giant mutated creature that has a stinger that could destroy the insides of any wastelander or creature. These enemies are commonly found in highly radioactive areas such as the Glowing Sea, and they will have little trouble when trying to kill their prey.
The Radscorpion will be immediately hostile towards players upon encountering them, and as such, it would be wise to stay away from areas that are covered in radiation and are known to spawn bugs.
2 Bloodbug
The Bloodbug sucks the blood out of enemies, and it seems to be a mutated mosquito. Unfortunately, this insect is massive in size, and it flies around extremely fast, which will make it difficult for players to defeat regardless of whether they are using a gun or a melee weapon.
The Bloodbug has an unsettling appearance, and any wastelander who knows what’s good for them will stay away from it if they see one while scouring the wastes.
1 Cazador
The Cazador is universally considered to be one of the most annoying and pesky enemies in the Fallout franchise to date. This enemy resides in the Mojave Wasteland, and it was initially created within the Big Empty by scientists experimenting with different creatures.
The Cazador can inject players with poison that will slowly kill them and whittle down their HP. This poison is very lethal, and players will need to be careful around these terrifying enemies because of it.
