Afterwards, on Main Street, Zanthar and the other demons watch Bill turn Ford into a golden statue and taunt Dipper before burning the journals. Later in the episode, Zanthar is seen playing "Spin the Person" and enjoying the "V.I.P." party Bill is having at the Fearamid until Time Baby and the Time Police crash the party.

Trivia
- In concepts, Zanthar was going to look similar to an island, having things such as a castle and a river on it's back.[4] Its features are vaguely reminescent of the Island Head Beast, a gigantic, monstrous, disembodied head covered with trees.
- Zanthar, along 8 Ball aren't seen after the Shacktron battle. Presumably, because Dipper sent him flying across the town.
- Therefore, he's not seen during the scene, where the Henchmaniacs and the Nightmare Realm's monsters are sucked by the rift.
- Zanthar, along 8 Ball, are the only Henchmaniacs, without an aura.
- Zanthar is the largest of all of Bill's minions.
- Despite this, Zanthar's size has changed considerably, during the entirety of Weirdmageddon: when he's presented, his size his larger than anybody else, but in some scenes later, his size is shrunk and his size, is about Pyronica and 8 Ball's size, possibly, this is because, he's very large to animate.
- Zanthar, along Teeth, Pyronica and Lava lamp shaped creature, make a brief cameo in Gravity Falls: Journal 3, in which them, along other three unknown Nightmare Realm residents go after Ford.
