Hanger is a Keeper-like enemy first added in the Wrath of the Lamb DLC for The Binding of Isaac, and appear in the Rebirth remake. They are found in Catacombs, Necropolis and the Cathedral.
They look very similar to Greed, with four different faces and a noose attached up to the ceiling, very identical to the Shopkeepers.
Behavior

Hanger from the original game.
It can shoot 3 projectiles at the player that will steal coins on hit (similar to Greed and Keepers).
The Hanger has very slow movement and can float. The best strategy is to be constantly moving. They always have an Eternal Fly circling them which will become hostile once the Hanger is dead.
Eternal Champion Behavior
Eternal Hanger shoots 3 homing shots that deal one full heart damage. Getting hit will cause the player to lose both money, keys and bombs.
Notes
- The Hanger is immune to contact damage, such as damage from My Little Unicorn, The Gamekid or The Virus. This is because Hangers do not deal contact damage, although the Eternal Fly does.

Trivia
- If Mom's Bra is used and the Hanger is killed during freeze duration, their eternal flies will remain docile and fly around the room.
- The four faces of the Hanger are people screaming in their death in different ways.
