Must've actually been Batman's Scarecrow because the Wizard of Oz one doesn't bleed he's just filled with straw.

I think Scarecrow was stood up as a straw man!

Scarecrow is the name of both the character from The Wizard of Oz depicted above and a Batman villain

I think it's meant to be a reference to the batman villian: scarecrow
