Actually, if the monsters are in any way smart, they would. While they have advantage in numbers it is far better to just wait out the enemy and let them exhaust themselves trying to breakthrough, and then swoop in for the kill. The stress is also much higher for the one who's trying to escape, not to mention that there are far less risks of being surprised by a trap.
