You can attack the Witch of Hemwick from behind.

Attacks

- disappearing - it is not an attack but one of the Witch's moves that she performs once in a while. The witch becomes invisible and teleports to a different place on the arena. She remains this way until the player comes close to her.

- summoning allies - the boss summons lesser witches, of which there are quite a few in the last phase. They are slow and easy to avoid, but it is good to get rid of them once they start to form a serious force.

- projectile - the Witch can shoot a blue orb towards the hero, which will stun him if the attack connects (this attack is performed rather rare if the hero stands close to the boss).

- physical attack - a normal strike (performed rarely if the hero stands close to the Witch).

- exploding circle (high damage) - the only "real" attack that the Witch can perform. She spreads a red circle around her which then explodes, dealing a lot of damage.

Strategy

This battle is not very challenging. However, finding the enemy may sometimes cause you some trouble. Search for the Witch in the corners of the arena, as she rarely teleports to the central part of it. Remember to dodge the only strong attack - the exploding circle. Use your extended weapon and do not allow a situation when there are too many lesser witches on the arena.

The red aura will help you locate the boss. - Witch of Hemwick | Boss Fights - Boss Fights - Bloodborne Game Guide & Walkthrough
The red aura will help you locate the boss.

The battle looks similar throughout the whole fight. Witch of Hemwick remains invisible until the player comes close to her. The arena is not very big so it is not difficult to find the boss. If you have any trouble locating the opponent, kill the allies that she's summoned and then keep running in circles. You can sometimes notice an orange circle that the Witch is making.

The Witch disappears after every hit so try to strike as strongly as you can. - Witch of Hemwick | Boss Fights - Boss Fights - Bloodborne Game Guide & Walkthrough
The Witch disappears after every hit so try to strike as strongly as you can.

When you come close to her, the Witch will be visible to you and you will be able to lock the target. Use this moment to perform a burst of blows, as strong as you can (she disappears after being hit so you can use a fully charged attack and then a quick finishing move). The Witch will disappear and summon another enemy.

The HP bar of the second Witch will be different, depending on how many times youve hit her before. - Witch of Hemwick | Boss Fights - Boss Fights - Bloodborne Game Guide & Walkthrough
The HP bar of the second Witch will be different, depending on how many times you've hit her before.

Repeat this pattern until the Witch dies (at the end, she will summon several enemies one after another - deal with them first). When her HP bar falls to zero, a second Witch of Hemwick will appear. What is really happening, is that there are two Witches of Hemwick on the arena the whole time. If you notice that you don't deal any damage when hitting a Witch, you are dealing it to the second one. Her HP bar appears only after defeating the first opponent. The strategy is identical - kill her allies, locate the Witch and attack her fast and strong. When the second boss is dead, the fight is finally over.

Reward: 6x Bloodshot Eyeball, 11 800 Blood Echoes, a lantern that you can light (respawn point called Witch's Abode), Rune Workshop Tool - after the fight, at the end of the corridor, behind the lantern (allows you to use runes in the Hunter's Dream).
