The scary snails[1] are a group of snails that appear "Have You Seen This Snail?," the online game Trail of the Snail, its book adaptation, and "Mandatory Music."
Description[]
They are three older snails who reside in alleys. One of them is a gray snail with a light gray body and a dark gray shell with a dark blue yellow-spotted eye patch on his left eye, a sword-heart tattoo on his shell, and a ring piercing on his mouth.
Another is a pink snail with a light purple body and a dark purple shell, on which she has a bandage.
The last one is an olive green snail with a dark green shell.
They all seem to have a bit of hairs around the faces.
Role in series[]
"Have You Seen This Snail?"[]
The scary snails attempt to befriend Gary, but he gets scared and flees due to their intimidating appearance. However, they think it was because Gary did not want any nachos.
Near the end of the episode, when Gary tries to escape from Grandma after discovering that she eats snails, Gary runs toward the alley and pushes the green snail in the middle of the sidewalk in an attempt to avoid being eaten. Grandma picks this snail up, assuming him to be Miss Tuffsy, to which the snail questions "Who?"
"Mandatory Music"[]
The scary snails are seen in an alley downtown. When Squidward passes by, playing his clarinet badly, they hiss and begin attacking each other.
Trivia[]
- In the online game Trail of the Snail, the gray snail from the group is called "Ol' Snail" during level 6.
