This guide will inform you about how to defeat the Bell Eater boss during the last act of Hollow Knight Silksong.
A boss guide for Bell Eater is necessary because it unlocks the Bellways during Act 3 and provides you with an extremely overpowered ability in Hollow Knight Silksong. This guide will cover the location and tips on how to beat this boss so you can obtain the Beastling Call ability.
However, the way to encounter this boss is not like most others in the game. Here is how to find and beat this creature.
Where To Find Bell Eater in Hollow Knight Silksong?
You need to reach Act 3 of the game to encounter this boss. The fight begins once you arrive at the Grand Bellway in the Choral Chambers.
You must attempt to call out your Bell Beast. However, this will fail. Instead, an opening will appear in the area where the Bell Beast would usually show up. Dive into this area, and you will reach the boss.
Hollow Knight Silksong: Bell Eater Boss Fight Overview
This boss can be difficult to fight due to the limited space and its wide range of attacks. The Eater strikes you simultaneously with its head and tail. Here are the attacks you should watch for:
- Exploding Projectiles: The Bell Eater’s tail emerges from the ground or the ceiling. It then shoots out red spheres that bounce twice before exploding.
- Rapid Spit: The head of the boss comes out of the ceiling or the ground. It then proceeds to shoot out multiple projectiles in an area.
- Blade Spin: The various blades attached to its body spin in an area. Just stand away from the body of the Bell Eater to avoid this attack.
- Bell Shower: Bells fall from the roof and bounce once. They break the second time they fall to the ground. Moreover, the Bell Eater will also move across the ceiling or the ground. In case it’s the ceiling, you don’t need to worry. However, if he moves across the ground, then perform a double jump and use the Drifter’s Cloak to float down while avoiding the bells.
Second Phase
The moves do not change much, but the arena does open up a bit, giving you more space to move around. However, the Exploding Projectiles move now takes three bounces before exploding. So be careful about that.

Here is everything you should know to defeat this boss:
- You need to be patient if you want to win this fight. There won’t be many opportunities to hit your opponent, so be careful when you are given that brief window.

- Apart from this, you can use naturally good damage-dealing or survival Tools like Cogfly, Tacks and the Fractured Mask to make life easier.
- Whenever you see the boss appearing from beneath the ground, you can jump above the spot and attempt to pogo attack. However, be sure to get away quickly to avoid the volley of projectiles.
