Fungified Husk
The remains of a bug, consumed by a fungus. Frequently releases clouds of thick, deadly gas. The bugs of Hallownest are so pathetic that being infected by poisonous fungi actually increases their chances of survival! They really are absurd creatures. |
Fungified Husks are enemies in Hollow Knight. They are deceased citizens of Hallownest whose corpses were filled with and reanimated by Infected spores.[1][2]
Behaviour and Tactics
Meanders peacefully back and forth until disturbed. Much like the Volatile Mosskin, it emits an explosive gas cloud from its body, with a faster trigger delay and a wider area of effect than that of a Volatile Mosskin.
Shortly after being killed, its corpse produces one final explosion that is equal to that of a Volatile Mosskin.

Trivia
- The Fungified Husk is one of the few enemies that has multiple different appearances, but no change to behaviour. Other enemies with this trait are Mistake, Sibling, and Corpse Creeper.
- The designs for the two Fungified Husks seem to be modified versions of the Husk Bully and Husk Hornhead.
