Mr. Grimm is a recurring character in the Twisted Metal series. While his character varies between entries, both himself and his vehicle are frequently associated with the Grim Reaper.
Description
In most entries, Mr. Grimm is the literal Grim Reaper, who normally joins the contest in order to satiate his lust for human souls; or to gain a specific soul (from the host). In Twisted Metal 4, he's dressed up as a pirate "for the holidays".
There are four entries which depict Mr. Grimm as a human: Twisted Metal: Black, where Mr. Grimm is a Vietnam veteran who wears the skull of his best friend after eating him to survive; Twisted Metal: Small Brawl, where he is a kid who's obsessed with Halloween; Twisted Metal (2012), where he's a man wearing skull facepaint who leads a gang called "The Skulls"; and the Twisted Metal TV Series, where he's a former inmate of Blackfield Asylum, and a major antagonist of Season 2.
