Welcome to my Hunter’s Journal guide for Hollow Knight: Silksong.

In this guide, I’ll show you where to find every enemy needed to complete all journal entries and get the True Hunter achievement. Not every spawn location will be listed, but by following this guide, you’ll be able to track down every enemy required. Most enemies respawn when you sit on a bench or restart the game, except for bosses and special enemies.

The journal entries for Shakra, Garmond & Zaza, Palestag, Lost Garmond, Lost Lace and Summoned Saviour are not required.

Note: This guide is based on being already in Act 3.
