How 'bout the "Phoenix" bug? You know, rising from the ashes to even greater
heights of glory? Just a thought...

I have a few suggestions. 1. Specter Bug. 2. Ghost Bug. 3.
Spectral Apparition Syndrome. (SAS) 4. Goolish Trooper.

Ok, so it's not the best, but it is a start.

How about just "Arch-Vile bug" or "Undead bug?" If only we had silver
bullets...

Gee, I don't know of any folklore that describe something between a zombie
and a vampire.

I think we are talking about a cross between "the living Dead", and "the
unliving UnDead".

As far as a common term is concerned, I personally am torn between:
1. "Holy SHIT!!! What the fuck is that?!!!" ,and
2. JESUSFUCKINGCHRIST! Not another one of those bastards!!!

But there are problems with these terms, since they are a bit generic.

I suggest:
Vamproid, Demonoid, and UnUnDead.

Any one of which will kill you by virtue of trying to remember its' name in
the heat of battle.

summary:
Kill them any way you can, but above all, stay away from 'em.
