The Shadow Tentacle is a mob occasionally spawned by the Thulecite Club on hit, as well as the Ancient Guardian in its second phase.
When attacking with a Thulecite Club, there is a 20% chance that a Shadow Tentacle will spawn from the ground, which lasts for 9 seconds. Additionally, the Ancient Guardian occasionally releases Shadow Tentacles when stunned and below half health. The Shadow Tentacle attacks any enemies within its range. Shadow Tentacles have the same stats as normal Tentacles, except for a more limited attack range. Shadow Tentacles lower Sanity by 40 
per minute when close just like normal ones. These Shadow Tentacles cannot be targeted.
Don't Starve Together[]
In Don't Starve Together, Shadow Tentacles are also spawned by Cursed Rounds on hit.
Trivia[]
- The Shadow Tentacle was added in the The Stuff of Nightmares update.
