Mummies are Hardmode Desert enemies. They spawn in areas where Sand Blocks are present, and follow the Fighter AI (behaving similar to Zombies).
There are several different variants of Mummies: Dark Mummies, Blood Mummies, and Light Mummies.
- On PC, Console, Mobile, and tModLoader versions, Dark Mummies spawn in Corrupted Deserts, and Blood Mummies spawn in Crimson Deserts.
- On Old-gen console, Windows Phone, Old Chinese, , and tModLoader Legacy versions, Dark Mummies spawn in both the Corrupted and Crimson Deserts.
- On all versions, Light Mummies spawn in Hallowed Deserts.
- On Old-gen console, Windows Phone, and versions, the exclusive Shadow Mummies and Spectral Mummies spawn in Corrupted Deserts and Hallowed Deserts, respectively.
Dark Mummies are 150% faster than other Mummies. All mummies receive a 200% speed increase when they are reduced to 50% health or lower. In addition, mummies inflict the following debuffs:
- Regular Mummies: Slow
- Dark Mummies/Blood Mummies/Shadow Mummies: Silenced, Darkness
- Light Mummies/Spectral Mummies: Confused

Notes[]
- Dark Mummies and Blood Mummies can drop the Megaphone and Blindfold at the same time. The chance of these two 1/100 events happening is
0.01*1/10000 (0.01%).
Tips[]
- Dark, Blood, and Light Mummies can easily be farmed for their shards by Corrupting or Hallowing a section of Desert, or making an artificial Desert. All that is necessary is a one-wide flat surface of Pearlsand, Ebonsand, or Crimsand. However, do not have both surfaces too close to each other, as one cancels out the other.
Trivia[]
- The head of the Old-gen console, Windows Phone, and -exclusive Shadow Mummy looks like a Skeleton's Skull.
- The mummies in Terraria are bound incorrectly: In Ancient Egypt, the feet of the mummies were bound together and their hands were bound on their sides. However, in Terraria (and almost every other fictional work), the hands and feet of the mummies are unbound so that they can move freely.
Bestiary entries
- Mummies: "With the sands transmogrified by outside forces, those put to rest in the desert, whether good or evil, now rise to maim and kill."
- Blood Mummy: "The blood-dripping organic matter in these mummies display far better preservation than the rest of their ilk."
