Leaping Husks are enemies in Hollow Knight. These reanimated corpses used to be citizens of the kingdom of Hallownest. They attack creatures who are not Infected by leaping at them.

Behaviour and Tactics Meanders back and forth until disturbed. Leaps at the Knight when in range. Only dangerous when not on level ground or near hazards, however, this can be taken advantage of by getting them to throw themselves into hazards.

Location Mostly in small groups, they are found in the Forgotten Crossroads, Greenpath, the City of Tears, and the Howling Cliffs.

Trivia
