Editing Haunted Hollows

{{level infobox

'''Haunted Hollows''' is the thirty-third level in ''[[Donkey Kong Land III]]'' and the third level of [[Lost World (Donkey Kong Land III)|the Lost World]]. It takes place in a cavern submerged in water. During the first half, [[Dixie Kong|Dixie]] and [[Kiddy Kong|Kiddy]] must swim underwater and avoid some aquatic enemies along their path, including [[Bounty Bass]]es, [[Lurchin]]s, and [[Koco]]s. The second half takes place outside the water, and it becomes a normal cavern level akin to [[Stalagmite Frights]]. The [[Kong]]s encounter many types of enemies on land, such as [[Krumple]]s and [[Kuchuka]]s. [[Squitter]] is playable during the second [[Bonus Level]].

From the start of the level, the heroes need to swim through a damp cave. They swim west as they travel, avoiding Bounty Basses and Kocos. Eventually, the group find a straight, underwater pathway where they need to dodge a few Lurchins to survive. Past this area, the heroes have to swim a little farther west and then head upwards to reach the next area. There, they need to begin traveling east and watch out for more underwater enemies, mainly Kocos. After a while, the group approach the shore of the water, where they have to dodge several Lurchins. After [[KONG Letters|the letter O]], the monkeys see a barrel above them. They must jump into it to blast to a higher level of the area. From there, they need to travel up a few stony ledges, without stepping on any Bristles, and then hit the [[Star Barrel]] nearby.

Halfway through the level, the apes have to walk west and defeat several enemies, including the mighty Krumples. Eventually, they find another barrel. Jumping into it, they are shot to a higher area, where they need to beat two Rekoils. Soon, they are greeted by a Kuchuka and a Knocka. They need to pass them both and jump over a few Krumples to find some Sneeks and Krimps. After passing all these foes, [[Kiddy Kong]] and [[Dixie Kong]] find a barrel. They have to jump into it and blast to an even higher area. There, they, again, have to defeat some Rekoils and a Sneek. Afterwards, they find a couple of Kuchukas. They must dodge the two foes and head more westward to find more enemies. After passing the level's final Kuchuka, the Kongs come across the [[Level Flag|End of Level Flag]].

The following items and objects appear in the following quantities:

*[[Bear coin]]s: 1

*[[Boo Barrel|Ghost Barrel]]: 1

After the second DK Barrel, the Kongs must swim straight to the top of the underwater area. They must jump on a platform to the left, where they encounter the [[Koin]]. Dixie or Kiddy must pick up the [[Iron Barrel|Steel Barrel]] next to Koin and throw it at the left wall behind him. The Steel Barrel ricochets into Koin's back and defeats him, and the Kongs are rewarded the [[DK Coin]].

Haunted Hollows has two [[Bonus room|Bonus Level]]s, listed by type:

*'''Collect the Stars!''': After the letter K, the Kongs encounter the first Lurchin of the level. By swimming above it, the Kongs can enter a [[Bonus Barrel]] above. In the [[Bonus Level]], the Kongs have 20 seconds to collect 12 [[star (Donkey Kong franchise)|star]]s. The stars are in groups of three, each guarded by a Kuchuka. The Kongs must avoid the enemies as they collect the stars. After obtaining every star, the [[Bonus Coin (Donkey Kong franchise)|Bonus Coin]] appears at the end of the area.

*'''Bash the Baddies!''': Shortly after the Star Barrel, the Kongs find a DK Barrel above a Kuchuka. They must go right to the next Kuchuka and jump into a Barrel Cannon hidden above it. The Barrel Cannon blasts them up into the second Bonus Barrel. In the Bonus Level, the Kongs must enter an [[Animal Barrel]] to transform into [[Squitter]], who has 40 seconds to defeat numerous Buzzes in the area. Some Buzzes are above an abyss, so Squitter must create a web platform to stand over the abyss and defeat the Buzz. After defeating every Buzz, a Bonus Coin appears at the end. Before reaching the Bonus Coin, Squitter must pass a [[No Animal Sign]] to turn back into the Kongs.
