Half-Life: Blue Shift Hints
Zombies (Hybrids, Mawmen)
These are the shambling humanoid creeps with long, hideous fingers that are the end result of a headcrab killing and infiltrating a human's body.
These things have no ranged attack, but they have two different styles of arm swings, one of which is very fast. This makes it dangerous but possible to take them out with the crowbar if you back off quickly after every crowbar hit. (Though if you've got plenty of shells, a double-barrel shotgun blast at close range is preferable.)
