- Not to be confused with Skull Spider.
Skeleton Spiders are enemies in the Castlevania series.
Description[]
The Skeleton Spider is a monstrosity made entirely of bones which resembles a giant spider. They crawl cautiously back and forth, but will occasionally make charging attacks.
They are resilient creatures which can withstand many hits. When attacked, however, they will be sent a few steps back, allowing the player to attack them repeatedly without giving them chance to retaliate.
Skeleton Spiders may be related to Skull Spiders and Spittle Bones, although they possess a long spine. The ones in Castlevania Chronicles have a giant, humanoid skull whereas the one in Harmony of Dissonance boast a ram skull.
There also exists a variant in Harmony of Dissonance called Arthro Skeleton, which appears as a hybrid between a human skeleton and a skeletal spider, similar to an Arachne. Its behavior is the same to that of the Skeleton Spider; however, it can throw large bones in an arc with its upper humanoid hands, which makes it a larger threat. It is possible to avoid both enemies by sliding under their legs.
