If you are referring to the small boy with the birthmark on his face in Lord of the Flies, then he is scared of what he says is a 'beastie' or a 'snake-thing' - a representation of the darkness and Horror of man. In many ways Lord Of The Flies is deeply philosophical and religious (not saying it's a religious book) but I will provide some examples:

1) Ralph calls it a 'good island' - it is a representation of The Garden Of Eden.

2) The boy refers to the 'snake-thing' - do you know about the snake and Eve in The Garden Of Eden?

3) At one point in the book Simon says he thinks he knows what the beastie might be - 'Maybe it's just us?' He is saying 'us' referring to man, saying that man is the horrible beast that frightens them all.

I know I got a little off track, but I hope this helped.
