Hastur
Hastur is one of the selectable characters in 20 Minutes Till Dawn. They have 4 HP, and are unlocked by surviving the Temple in Standard Mode.
Ability
Every 5 seconds, a Tentacle is summoned nearby Hastur. The Tentacles are stationary and cannot be interacted with by the player or any enemy. Each tentacle lasts for 15 seconds each, Meaning Hastur will always have 3 (except in the opening 10 seconds of the match). Each tentacle attacks nearby enemies in a rectangle, every 5 seconds.
Tentacles appear to count as multiple summons for the purposes of the Dedication rune, but still benefit from summon-related Runes and Upgrades:
- Summon Damage:
- Summon Attack Speed:
- Decreases the delay between slams.
- (via Upgrades such as Energetic)

Trivia
- Hastur debuted in Version 0.8.0.
- Hastur was the first character who was not unlocked with Souls.
- Hastur was likely based on the entity with the same name originating from Ambrose Bierce's short story "Haïta the Shepherd", published in 1891 (which is available to read online here).
- Dedication seems to be impossible to activate on Hastur, as there is always more than one summon after the first few seconds.
