Crawling Torso

The Crawling Torso (a.k.a. Hungry Torso) is a type of zombie enemy encountered in Diablo Immortal and Diablo III.

Diablo Immortal
Hungry Torsos can spawn from Exsanguinated Corpses.

Diablo III
Crawling Torsos can spawn from a Hungry Corpse. Sometimes, a Hungry Corpse will go through a scripted animation of it falling on its front. If this animation happens, the corpse will be torn in half, and a new monster (Crawling Torso) will be created. This one is as fast and strong as the normal Corpse, but has much less Life. So far, the only easily accessible method of preventing this is absolute destruction of the zombie's body, usually caused by the work of Critical Hits.

In some areas (most notably the Weeping Hollow), bands of Crawling Torsos can crawl forth from the bushes and ambush unwary travelers.

Crawling Torsos can be a surprise, but they are weak nevertheless. A single hit often suffices to send them back towards their graves. Note that Crawling Torsos do not 'expire' on their own; you need to land a killing blow in order to get rid of them.
