Husk Hive

"Cowardly husk, its body colonised by hivelings. Did the hivelings build their nest around this sorry bug, or did the bug squeeze its body into their nest? Either way, they seem happy enough together."

Husk Hives are enemies in Hollow Knight. These husks have merged their bodies with small hives, carrying Hivelings around who will protect them.

Behaviour and Tactics
When engaged, it flees from the Knight, even jumping up onto platforms if its way is blocked. If cornered, it will leap a short but high distance in the Knight's direction and deal contact damage, much like a Gluttonous Husk. It occasionally spawns a single Hiveling and will spawn three of them upon death.

A well-timed Cyclone Slash near the Husk Hive can kill it and its spawned Hivelings after death at once.

Location
They are only found within the Hive.

Trivia

 * With the Hiveblood equipped, it will not run from the player, deal damage on contact or summon Hivelings, however, they will retaliate when attacked.
 * The Hivelings spawned upon death will always be hostile to the player regardless if Hiveblood is equipped or not.
