The Jungle Creeper is a Hardmode enemy found in the Underground Jungle. It resembles a Black Recluse colored brown with a bit of green. They climb on background walls similar to Wall Creepers.
It can inflict the Acid Venom debuff and, in Expert Mode, gains a special spit attack that applies the Webbed debuff to players.

Notes[edit | edit source]
- Like all spiders, Jungle Creepers cannot travel through a vertical 2-tile wide shaft.
Jungle Creepers seem to be weaker than most enemies at the time making them more of a hassle than a real danger.
The cooldown between web spit attacks lasts 3 seconds. It is paused if the Jungle Creeper loses focus on the player or has no direct line of fire, and it is increased by between 0.33 and 1 second when the Jungle Creeper takes damage.[1]
Trivia[edit | edit source]
- The
Bestiary entry for the Jungle Creeper: "The itsy bitsy spider climbed up a jungle vine, down came a hapless explorer and the spider got to dine. The End."
- This is a reference to the nursery rhyme "Itsy Bitsy Spider".
- The Jungle Creeper is the strongest spider enemy in the game, being stronger than the Black Recluse, the Blood Crawler, and the Wall Creeper.
