Shadow Temple

The Shadow Temple is the seventh dungeon in The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time. It is found in the back of the graveyard in Kakariko Village in a little alcove only accessible using the Nocturne of Shadow. It is filled with undead creatures and deadly twisted traps and mind-bending puzzles everywhere, all designed to trap everyone in the crypt. It is also filled to the brim with invisible walls and passageways only visible using the Lens of Truth. The boss of the temple is Bongo Bongo, an undead monster consisting of a giant torso, one protruding eye, and two huge disembodied hands beating on a giant drum.

Many players think this is the scariest temple, probably due to the numerous traps and surprises, the darkening senses, as well as the overall atmosphere. Some of walls and floor are stained with blood, and torture equipment is located in several rooms. The Shadow Temple is similar to the Kakariko Well in this regard, as it also includes it's melody. This dungeon is also similar to Mutoh's Temple in Phantom Hourglass due to the many traps found.
