Bellhart’s Silk Situation: A 2026 Guide to Freeing Pharloom’s Quirkiest Town

Bellhart is the kind of town that greets visitors with a chorus of creaking silk and a collective nap that would make a sloth jealous. In Hollow Knight: Silksong, every resident of Pharloom’s central burg has been strung up like a row of particularly unfortunate marionettes, and as of 2026, freeing them remains one of the game’s most satisfying detours. The solution is not written on a welcome mat; it requires a westward trek, a map-buying spree, and a boss fight against a spider who treats tempo like a weapon. Think of it as a municipal rescue operation conducted by a very determined insect with a needle.

How to Reach the Bellhart Crown

If the townsfolk are hanging from silk, logic suggests something above them is holding the strings. The goal, therefore, is to reach the top of Bellhart. Before any climbing begins, players should pick up two maps from Shakra: Bellhart for 40 Rosaries and Shellwood for 70 Rosaries. They are sold together, but the seller’s location depends on how Hornet first entered Shellwood. Coming from Greymoor puts Shakra far westward, past the first Shellwood bench and a descending elevator, at the bottom-left exit of the elevator room. Coming from the Wormways places her east of the Greymoor–Far Fields connection. Finding her can feel like a cartographer mapping a city that keeps rearranging its streets, but the purchase is non-negotiable.

With maps in hand, the main business of Shellwood awaits: defeat Sister Splinter and obtain Cling Grip. Once Cling Grip is acquired, the path above Bellhart opens by exiting Shellwood from the top-right corner of the map area. The cleanest route is to return to Sister Splinter’s arena and head right.
