The hash-slinging slasher appears in Squidward's stage (B-Movie) which was a prank by SpongeBob and Patrick to scare Squidward.

He was also revealed to be the cause of the latter two 'signs' signalling the hash-slinging slasher's arrival, with Nosferatu switching the lights on and off. Eventually, it is revealed that the hash-slinging slasher, or who they thought was him, actually came to apply for a job at the Krusty Krab. Later that night, however, it seemed that the events of his story were coming true. Squidward later confesses that he fabricated the story in response to SpongeBob's almost-frenetic-and-melodramatic screams of terror. However, his presence is announced by flickering lights, a phone call with nobody on the sending line, and the arrival of the bus that killed him, stopping just outside the Krusty Krab. Out of vengeance, his ghost returns to the restaurant every Tuesday night via the bus that killed him and 'gets' unsuspecting victims.

Later, when he was going home, he was fatally run over by a bus and 'fired' at his funeral. He replaced his hand with a rusty spatula. One night, the slasher accidentally severed one of his hands by mistake while cutting Krabby Patty meat. Squidward creates the character of the 'hash-slinging slasher' in order to scare SpongeBob as a form of entertainment during their 24-hour night shift.Īccording to Squidward's story, the hash-slinging slasher was a former fry cook who worked at the Krusty Krab before SpongeBob and was clumsier than him. He has a rusty spatula for a left hand and has dark red eyes and a black hunch-backed body.
