The Demon Eye is a flying enemy that appears at night when above ground. Its trajectory is changed when hit with a weapon that causes knockback. It has a slow turn rate, follows the player, and bounces off blocks.

Notes

Demon eyes sometimes spawn as either larger or smaller than normal, modifying their health (and possibly other stats) accordingly.
Demon Eyes appear more often during a new moon.

Tips

Demon Eyes attempt to fly straight towards the player. This allows for relatively easy escape by hiding behind a wall.
Due to the fact they cannot enter water, they cannot reach you if you are completely submerged. However, you can still hit them with your broadsword or any ranged weapon.
New players may find that spear-type weapons are quite effective against these.
It is also recommended to use ranged weapons, such as the Wooden Bow, when dealing with Demon Eyes, as they spend much of their time out of reach. The best time to attack it is when it is turning, as a successful hit will knock it back and interrupt its flight pattern, allowing you to get in more shots before it reaches you.

Trivia

The Eye of Cthulhu, Servant of Cthulhu and Wandering Eye are modeled after this creature.

-<big>''"You feel an evil presence watching you..."''</big>
-The '''Eye of Cthulhu''' is the first [[Boss]] a player will generally encounter, as it spawns automatically when a relatively early level of game advancement is achieved. It is considered the easiest Boss in the game, though it still presents a challenge to newer players.
-== Spawn ==
-The Eye of Cthulhu can be summoned manually using a [[Suspicious Looking Eye]] at [[Night]]. It also has a 1 in 3 chance of spawning automatically each night once the following conditions are met:
-* At least one player in the world has at least 200 life and more than 10 defense.
-* At least three Town [[NPC]]s are acquired.
-* The Eye of Cthulhu has not yet been defeated in the current world.
-Its approach is signaled with the message: "''You feel an evil presence watching you...''" Within 20-40 seconds of this message, the Eye of Cthulhu will appear and begin attacking the player. If the Eye is not defeated by dawn, or if all players die or run away while fighting it, it despawns.
-== Behavior ==
-The Eye of Cthulhu looks like an enormous [[Demon Eye]]. Like most bosses, it travels through all blocks.
-The Eye of Cthulhu has two phases. During the first, he spawns [[Servant of Cthulhu|Servants of Cthulhu]] while floating around the player, which drop hearts and stars on death. After spawning a round of those, he flies at the player 3 times.
-When the Eye falls below half health (1400), it transforms into its second form, which rams the player more aggressively 3 times, then hangs in the air for a period. It no longer spawns Servants, and has lowered defense.
 == Notes ==
+* Demon eyes sometimes spawn as either larger or smaller than normal, modifying their health (and possibly other stats) accordingly.
-* If you log out after the message "''You feel an evil presence watching you...''," the Eye will not appear.
+* Demon Eyes appear more often during a [[new moon]].
-* If you use the [[Suspicious Looking Eye]] after the message "You feel an evil presence watching you", it will summon one Eye of Cthulhu, and then later another will appear allowing the player to fight two Eyes of Cthulhu at once.
-* If you are already fighting an Eye that was summoned using the [[Suspicious Looking Eye]], and you use another Suspicious Looking Eye, nothing will happen, and the [[Suspicious Looking Eye]] will not be consumed from your inventory.
-* You cannot spawn the boss in rain. Nothing will happen, and the [[Suspicious Looking Eye]] will not be consumed.
-* The Eye of Cthulhu can be hit by a [[Fallen Star]], which will deal 1000 damage (reduced by its defense).
-* The Eye of Cthulhu's ore drop is based on if the player's world has [[Corruption]] or [[Crimson]] in it; if the world has [[Corruption]] then the eye will drop [[Demonite Ore]]; if the world has [[Crimson]] then the eye drops [[Crimtane Ore]].
-* If the player activates the [[Magic Mirror]], the Eye will not follow them to their spawn if it's too far away from its current position, and the player may have to wait for one more night.
-* If the corruption/crimson biome has officially disappeared (you can tell if the dryad doesn't say any percentage for the [[corruption]]/[[crimson]]), the Eye of Cthulhu may give the ores of the opposite biome (tested for corruption for eye of Cthulhu gives [[Crimtane Ore]] when [[corruption]] is gone but not tested for [[crimson]] biome).
-* In {{mobile icon}}[[mobile version]], the Eye of Cthulhu can die instantly when hit by a shooting star, making it much easier for new players to advance in the game.
-* You do not technically need to beat the boss to progress through the rest of the game, as this boss has no unique drops (other bosses drop Crimtane Ore and Demonite Ore), but the items it does drop are pretty useful for new players.
 == Tips ==
+* Demon Eyes attempt to fly straight towards the player. This allows for relatively easy escape by hiding behind a wall.
-{{strategies|Guide:Eye of Cthulhu strategies}}
+* Due to the fact they cannot enter water, they cannot reach you if you are completely submerged. However, you can still hit them with your broadsword or any ranged weapon.
-* The Eye of Cthulhu drops either [[Demonite Ore]] or [[Crimtane Ore]]. Game-advancing tools at that tier also require [[Shadow Scale]]s or [[Tissue Sample]]s respectively, which the Eye doesn't drop, so players will have to fight the [[Eater of Worlds]] or [[Brain of Cthulhu]] to progress.
+* New players may find that spear-type weapons are quite effective against these.
-* Due to the ease of crafting its summoning item and relatively low difficulty, farming the Eye of Cthulhu is one of the most effective ways of [[Guide:Making money|making money]] prior to [[Hardmode]].
+*It is also recommended to use ranged weapons, such as the [[Wooden Bow]], when dealing with Demon Eyes, as they spend much of their time out of reach. The best time to attack it is when it is turning, as a successful hit will knock it back and interrupt its flight pattern, allowing you to get in more shots before it reaches you.
-* The Eye of Cthulhu will only spawn if you have 10 or more defense. Taking defense-boosting equipment off before sundown can prevent it from spawning randomly.
-* When the Eye of Cthulhu is changing into its second form, it stops moving and spins for a couple seconds, similarly to [[Ocram]], leaving an opening to deal damage without it attacking back.
-* The Eye looks at the player it will follow, which can be helpful information in [[multiplayer]].
-* In the Eye's Second Form, it cannot shoot it's [[Servant of Cthulhu|Servants]], so it's best to use a [[Bow]] against it's second stage.
-* Due to the value of Crimtane Ore being 1 silver coin more than each Demonite ore the average drop value is slightly more in crimson worlds than corruption worlds(846.5 Silver Coins vs 790.76 Silver Coins).
 == Trivia ==
+*The [[Eye of Cthulhu]], [[Servant of Cthulhu]] and [[Wandering Eye]] are modeled after this creature.
-* Cthulhu is an entity from the works of writer H.P. Lovecraft, first appearing in his short story ''The Call of Cthulhu''. Cthulhu is described as a slumbering Elder god who will destroy all living things should he ever awaken.
-* Sometimes NPCs will mention sensing something evil watching them when you meet the requirements to battle the Eye of Cthulhu.
-* In the [[Mobile Version]] the music is [[Boss 4]] instead of [[Boss 1]] .
