Grub Mimic

"Assumes the shape of a harmless creature to lure prey. Luring an enemy close by pretending to be a weak little grub. Very cunning! Unfortunately for them, I eat these grubs as soon as I see them."

Grub Mimics are enemies in Hollow Knight. They are creatures who mimic the form of a harmless Grub to lure prey.

Behaviour and Tactics
It pretends to be a Grub trapped in a glass jar. It emits the same sounds as a normal Grub, however, once freed, it reveals its true form and charges at the Knight.

It is quite fast and has a lot of health, but its main weapon is the element of surprise. Simply attack from above to deal with it easily. These creatures can also be discovered by Dream Nailing since normal grubs always read "...Home..." while Grub Mimics will have their normal Dream Nail dialogue.

Location

Trivia

 * Grub Mimics are one of the few enemies that never respawn. The others are Kingsmoulds, Maggots, Elder Baldurs, Bluggsacs, Gorgeous Husk, and Pale Lurker.
 * The Grub Mimic in the Colosseum of Fools cannot be Dream Nailed. This prevents them from being used as an infinite source of SOUL and making it too easy to heal.
