Specimen 5, also known as Bab, is a supporting antagonist from the 2014 indie video game Spooky's Jump Scare Mansion.
Its sound effects were taken from Akuma Kira, who voices Spooky and various other Specimens in the same game.
Appearance[]
Specimen 5 is a faceless, humanoid creature that is entirely pale in color. Its body appears feminine in shape, and wears no clothes or accessories of any kind. Certain areas of its body, such as its face and limbs, also carry darker shades, presumably from lighting.
Natural marks are visible across Specimen 5's body, signifying age in an organic or inorganic way. Its texture/composure is similar in appearance to paper, clay, parchment, wood, etc.
The specimen also lacks hands, and its arms end at stubs. It carries a large reddish-brown blade attached to its right arm, which appears to be tipped with blood.
Biography[]
Past[]
Specimen 5's story begins in a small town in an unknown area, where a cult would reside. This cult would worship an entity they referred to as "Mother", and would practice rituals to keep her appeased. As time went on, these rituals became less and less effective, and in an act of desperation, would try to perform a virgin sacrifice in order to regain Mother's favor.
What the cult never realized was that the person they chose was pregnant, making her unsuitable for the ritual, and as such, Mother was enraged. As punishment, Specimen 5, either a servant of Mother or Mother herself, was sent down to Earth, where it would proceed to presumably kill off the members of the cult.
Specimen 5 was later recovered in a church, presumably one that the cult used to reside in. Specimen 5 was brought to the mansion, where it would achieve a body count of at least 168 through unknown methods.
Original[]
Specimen 5 will appear starting at the end of Room 210. At the last area of the chamber, Specimen 5 will be kept within a gate to the left before the exit. Upon crossing the gate, it opens and the specimen will begin its chase. Its arrival is forewarned by a heavy fog. As it chases the player, it can create hallucinations that cause the walls, floor, and doors to change into different patterns, such as a scintillating black and green, pale featureless faces, or blood, being used to try and hide the doors to prevent escape. Although slow, it is incredibly powerful, capable of killing the player with just two strikes. Should it manage to do so, the screen will show Specimen 5 standing in front of a red pentagram, its face covered in many small holes that seem to be eyes, alongside the message,
"Tiny, Shining holes in the sky.
Delicate, perfect emptiness.
Black, growing absences of life.
Cold, swarming death.
And we shall become them."
HD Renovation Mode[]
In the HD Renovation mode, its speed has been increased and Specimen 5 has the ability to knock the doors down when entering a room, leaving it down on the floor with no remorse. As it walks, it will leave behind a trail of red after-images.
