Resident Evil is chock-full of horrifying monsters that have seen their introduction over the course of the series' 26 years. For fans who have played Resident Evil 2, though, chances are one of the most memorable is the Licker.
Lickers first premiered in the series' sophomore entry and are not only visually disturbing, but also quite a deadly force. The Lickers have since appeared in multiple Resident Evil games, and of course, the Resident Evil 2 Remake. Fans of the creepy monster can now bring one into their homes whether or not they're playing a survival horror game.
