Oooohhh, got you. You mean something that is just dangerous in general like the Grimm from RWBY. Something that has no real need for a head to be a villain, more of a force of nature that has to be combatted rather than a villain that can be defeated to end the threat.

They're cool, but for the feeling of success in stories most of the time those things have to have something that can be defeated. Even the Grimm eventually had a lady that creates them show up at the end of season 3 iirc, as did your other examples have leaders that acted as antagonists with faces that would be end goal victories (barring the Zombies, which most of the time are a permanent state of the world, with the darkness they bring out in others being the bigger more interesting threat than the zombies themselves, which loops back to characters like the Governor and Negan from The Walking Dead, or the Psychopaths from Dead Rising).
