If you’re like me, you have been tiptoeing your way through Resident Evil Village and its bone-chilling horror story. Lady Dimitrescu, one of the game’s villains (and probably the most famous), has a larger-than-life personality. And it seems that she is literally larger than life, as Yodobashi Camera in Osaka has a lifesize display of her, and she’s gigantic.

As you can see in the photo above, Twitter user @c_asaaai is standing next to the Lady Dimitrescu display stand, and she barely comes up to her waistline. For reference, she is 165 cm tall (5.4 ft). Looking at the photo (and checking the Resident Evil wiki), Lady Dimitrescu must be just under 290 cm (9 ft 6 in).
In the game, you get to see just how tall she is, but you really don’t have a great frame of reference. Seeing her lifesize statue standing next to a real human really shows just how massive she is.
For further reference, the Twitter user also posted a photo of the previous Resident Evil antagonists such as Nemesis from Resident Evil 3. You can see that even he can’t even begin to reach the height of Lady Dimitrescu.
If you haven’t had the opportunity to experience Resident Evil Village and its absolutely massive antagonist yet, you owe it to yourself to give the game a try. It’s not that scary.
