Follower of Cthulhu is a regular crew mob in The Dark Cathedral. It is a Zombie with a custom appearance, a 1× health multiplier, and a much punchier 1.44× damage multiplier.
Its defenses are the part that changes how you fight it: knockback cannot move it, and player projectiles cannot damage it.

How to Beat It
Ranged projectile damage is a dead end here, and knockback will not buy space. That makes its 1.44× damage multiplier the number worth respecting: fight it with a plan that does not depend on arrows, thrown tridents, or shoving it backward.
