A fair comparison, but no.

In Bloodbornes lore, that beast used to be the founder and leader of Healing Church faction of hunters: Ludwig. It's too soon to tell, but I can only assume he became the most deformed beast of them all due to his constant drinking of the Healing Church's special healing blood.

Blood which also came from Gods who resemble lovecraftian horrors. It's kinda complicated, but I'm willing to explain it as simply as possible if you're further interested.
