The world of Hollow Knight: Silksong features a myriad of side quests, varying from simple fetch tasks to complex missions requiring players to track down specific foes. Among these, the Silver Bells side quest stands out, as it often leaves players puzzled. While the quest appears straightforward at first glance, its intricacies can make it somewhat frustrating. However, once you grasp the mechanics, completing this quest will feel much more manageable.
This guide aims to assist you in initiating the quest, locating the elusive silver bells, and detail the rewards awaiting you at the end. Let’s embark on this journey to discover the silver bells, even if the festive season isn’t quite upon us yet.
Initiating the Silver Bells Side Quest

To get started on the Silver Bells quest, you must first confront and defeat the Widow boss in Bellhart. Once you have vanquished this foe and liberated Bellhart, the quest board in the town will become accessible to you.
The quest board will present several missions, including the elusive Silver Bells quest. Though it provides a hint regarding the bell locations, the guidance is rather limited.
Locating the Silver Bells

Start your search for the Silver Bells by heading to the Bellhart bellvein, the fast travel point. Once you arrive at the spot where you summoned the Bell Beast, navigate to the right and continue until you pass through a wall leading to a vast area filled entirely with bells.
In this newly accessible area, you can freely explore, thanks to the Cling Grip ability, which you should have acquired by now. The space consists of a sizable square reminiscent of a maze, where you’ll need to smash through barriers and create pathways as you delve deeper.
Below is a list of bell locations along with images to aid you in your search.Do note that the bells may not always appear in the same locations upon each visit, so multiple runs may be necessary to collect all eight.
- The first bell is found on the second level, after dealing with an enemy. You can break a blockade above it for a shortcut back up.
- Toward the right side entrance with a large bell bug, drop down another level to find a bell on the floor next to a path leading upward.
- Continue along this path and break through any barriers. Once you descend back into The Marrow, ascend again, and you’ll find another bell across the gap.
- The next bell is located at the top of the bellvein, centered on the highest level.
- One bell spawns in the same location as the second.
- Another one appears in the same spot as the fourth bell.
- This bell will also be at the same location as the first.
- From the top-level, drop down to the elevation just above the spike trap on the left side, and you’ll find a bell in an alcove.

The map locations provided are not exact but serve as a helpful guide to where the bells should spawn.
Keep in mind that spawn locations are randomized; they might not always activate when you pass by, or their positions may vary for each player. It’s advisable to traverse each level of the bellvein in sequence before exiting, repeating the process until all eight are collected.
Rewards for Completing the Silver Bells Quest

While the rewards for finishing the Silver Bells quest may not seem extravagant, completing it is generally easier in comparison to many others.Your efforts will be rewarded with a string of rosary beads, totaling 120 beads that can be separated and used whenever necessary.
