The Hellhound is a Hardmode, post-Plantera enemy summoned during the Pumpkin Moon event. It follows the Unicorn AI and will run quite fast at the player; the player will be barely able to outrun them with Lightning Boots. This can make them a very dangerous enemy.
Defeating a Hellhound adds 4 / 5 points while the Pumpkin Moon event is active.
The Hellhound requires 100 kills to be awarded completion of its Bestiary entry and corresponding banner, as opposed to the usual 50 kills.
Notes
- Hellhounds cannot descend through platforms.
