Can an umber hulk confuse you from a non-adjacent square?
I ran into a treasure room on level 19, killed one or two
monsters that walked up to the door.  (I never entered the
room, but hit "s" to entice them to walk in my direction.)
A vampire was next.  I got a message that the vampire had
hit me, and expected to see "you feel weaker" but instead
I got "the umber hulk's gaze has confused you."  Indeed!
The umber hulk queued up after I had already engaged the
vampire in battle.  I couldn't hit the U diagonally from
the doorway, nor could it hit me, so how did I come to be
confused ???  Needless to say, I didn't survive.  Here
are the last three "frames" from the scene of the crime:
