Black Gulch

The Black Gulch is a location in Dark Souls II.

Description
The Black Gulch is a dark and decrepit cavern located far below Majula. It is a habitat for pit-dwelling monstrosities. The only light in the area is provided by luminescent particles on the poison spitting statues strewn about the area. The Rotten also calls the Black Gulch its home, and is one of the four Old Ones. The walls are lined with statues that will continuously spit poison at the player until they are destroyed.
