It seems these Scarecrows have teamed up with their arch-rival, the crow, and are now out to get you! They are very deadly creatures that do a ton of damage when they connect. Don't let their stillness lull you into a false sense of security. Get too close and they do a deadly spinning dance across your bones. In addition, once in a while they will open their chests and shoot out a few Dan-hungry crows who are looking to peck out that one good eye. While the game warns against antagonizing these straw-filled buggers - instead telling us to block their paths with objects (such as the wagons) - you're going to need to kill them all if you want to get enough souls to fill the Chalice. Your best bet is to keep moving around them, while whacking with your Sword. They take multiple hits, but eventually go down for the count.{{Bookref|MED-Guide}}
