History
Haunted Creeper was originally named "Dread Creeper" and was a 3 Mana 3/2 minion. It's deathrattle originally summoned "1/1 Spiderlings" which were originally also Beasts, but this was found to be too strong for hunters' Beast synergy. They were conceptually changed to be undead in order to make the lack of a Beast type "less awkward".[3][4]
Lore
Creepers are a type of large, fearsome spiders found throughout Azeroth.
Trivia
- The artwork for this card comes from the World of Warcraft Trading Card Game "The Hunt for Illidan" series, for the card Webster.
