“The stinkiest thing I'll smell all day.”
Merm Heads are decorative structures usually found around Pig Villages. They are severed Merm heads on sticks stuck in the ground, similar to Pig Heads. Destroying one with a Hammer drops 2 Rot and 2 Twigs.
Reign of Giants
During a Full Moon in the Reign of Giants DLC, Merm Heads will open their eyes. The eyes glow during this time. The heads will generate an insanity aura and drop Nightmare Fuel when destroyed.
Trivia
- Merm Heads can be found around the Pig Villages, while Pig Heads can be found around the Merm camps. This might symbolize the war between Pigs and Merms.
- When Wolfgang examines a Merm Head, he says, "What a handsome devil!", which is identical to what Wilson says about a Meat Effigy.
