===The Third Poe Sister, Amy===
===The Third Poe Sister, Amy===
Go all the way back out to the room you reached at the end of the block puzzle right before the twisted corridor with the two Blue Bubbles. Turn back around and look right above the door as you go out it and shoot the eye with your Fairy Bow. The corridor will untwist. Walk back down the now non-twisted hall and jump down to the floor to find the beautifully decorated blue and yellow chest that you saw on the wall. Inside it is the Boss Key. This key allows you to open the door to the Boss Room. For the remainder of the game, all the Boss Keys will be in this type of chest. Now you need to get another key as well. Watch out for the Wallmaster, because it still lurks in the room. Jump down a hole in the floor to find a small room. Kill the two Blue Bubbles to open the door in the room and then go through it. You will be in a familiar room but on a ledge. Be careful, because what ever you do, DON'T FALL FROM THE LEDGE. Kill the Big Deku Baba and go in the door that is the furthest on the right side. There will be another strange hand called a Floormaster in this room. Attack it with your sword but when it turns green it is invincible and will swoop after you, so hold up your shield. When you think you've killed it, it will split into three smaller Floormasters. Kill all the little Floormasters with Din's Fire and get the key from the chest that appears in the room. Do this quickly, because the mini-Floormasters will attempt to latch onto you and drain your magic power to regenerate themselves.
Go all the way back out to the room you reached at the end of the block puzzle (right before the twisted corridor) with the two Blue Bubbles. After leaving the twisted corridor, turn around and shoot the silver eye with the Fairy Bow. The corridor will untwist. Walk back down the now non-twisted hall and jump down to the floor to find the beautifully decorated blue and yellow chest that you saw on the wall. Inside it is the Boss Key. This key allows you to open the door to the Boss Room. For the remainder of the game, all the Boss Keys will be in this type of chest. Now you need to get another small key. Watch out for the Wallmaster, because it still lurks in the room. Jump down a hole in the floor to find a small room.  


Leave the room and go through the door on the end of the ledge. You'll once again be in the room with the block puzzles but at a different ledge. Jump down and go all the way up to the top of the corridors again and then shoot the eye above the door that leads through the corridor again to re-twist the hallway. Go through the twisted room, avoid the Wallmaster, jump across the platforms into the next room, go down the stairs where Joelle was, through the Mini-boss room, and through up the stairs where Beth was and unlock the door. You will be in the second twisted room. It also has a Wallmaster inside. Avoid it and cross over to the nearby platform with the ladder. This will lead you to the second corridor. However, it is not twisted. Walk through the corridor carefully, because there is another enemy introduced here: the Green Bubble. It spins in a circle and tries to hit you if you get near it. Stun the two Green Bubbles with your Hookshot to eliminate their flames, and then kill them with an arrow and unlock the next door. In this room there are four spinning platforms. Look for a frozen eye switch. You can melt the ice on it two ways. You can simply jump onto the platform with the eye switch and use Din's Fire to melt it, or you can go on the spinning platforms and use an arrow to shoot through the fire on the lit torch in the middle and melt the eye switch by timing it right. The eye switch will twist the corridor if it is shot with an arrow when it is thawed.
Kill the two Blue Bubbles to open the door in the room and then go through it.  


Go through the door and back into the twisted corridor to reach the twisted room. Drop down the hole in the floor to land in another weird room. In this room the ceiling falls on the floor, but there are empty spots in it, so you can make it across, but be careful because there are Big skulltulas around, and your shooting accuracy with the Hookshot and Fairy Bow is thrown off in this room. There is a chest with arrows if you want to restock on the floor. Reach the switch on the floor and hit it to enter the next room. Here, there is a big painting of a Poe Sister. Pay close attention to its details. Then, shoot it with an arrow and five blocks will fall on the floor. Push and pull them so they fit together and match the picture of the Poe Sister above. One of them is a fake image and darker than the rest. Ignore it, because you have only one minute before they return to where they were. If you arrange the picture correctly then the third Poe Sister will emerge from it. This Poe Sister is Amy, the Poe Sister who snatched the green torch. Kill her just like you killed the other two Poe Sisters. The green torch will light both here and in the main room. Leave the room and kill the Big Skulltula in the next room.   
{{OoT Skulltula|title=Third Forest Skulltula|width=25%|contents=While on the ledge, before passing the Big Deku Baba, leap over onto the platform supported by stone columns and walk to the first heart.  Turn to your left and you'll see the Gold Skulltula on the northern wall where you can reach it with the Hookshot.}}
You will be in a familiar room (the large one to the northwest of the main room) but on a ledge. Be careful, because what ever you do, '''don't fall from the ledge'''!. Kill the Big Deku Baba and go in the door that is the furthest on the right side (if you check the Dungeon Map you'll see a chest inside). There will be another strange hand called a Floormaster in this room. Attack it with your sword but when it turns green it is invincible and will swoop after you, so hold up your shield. When you think you've killed it, it will split into three smaller Floormasters. Kill all the little Floormasters with Din's Fire and get the key from the chest that appears in the room. Do this quickly, because the mini-Floormasters will attempt to latch onto you and drain your magic power to regenerate themselves.
 
Leave the room and go through the door to your right (the southern door at end of the ledge). You'll once again be in the room with the block puzzles but at a different ledge (kill the Blue Bubble with a shot from your Fairy Bow or ignore it). Jump down, then head to the greenish-blue block.  Climb up the ladder in the middle of this area, then when you see the little rope barrier, walk over to it and shoot the golden eye to get a small key. From there, go all the way up to the top of the corridors again and then shoot the silver eye above the door that leads through the corridor again to re-twist the hallway. Go through the twisted room, avoid the Wallmaster, jump across the platforms into the next room, and go down the stairs where Joelle was. Head through the mini-boss room, and then up the stairs where Beth was and unlock the door.
 
You will be in the second twisted room. It also has a Wallmaster inside. Avoid it and jump over to the nearby platform on your right (the one with the ladder). This will lead you to the second corridor. However, this one is not twisted. Walk through the corridor carefully, because there is another enemy introduced here: the Green Bubble. It spins in a circle and tries to hit you if you get near it. Stun the two Green Bubbles with your Hookshot to eliminate their flames, and then kill them with an arrow and unlock the next door.
 
In this room there are four spinning platforms. Look for a frozen eye switch. You can melt the ice on it two ways. You can simply jump onto the platform with the eye switch and use Din's Fire to melt it, or you can go on the spinning platforms and use an arrow to shoot through the fire on the lit torch in the middle and melt the eye switch by timing it right. The eye switch will twist the corridor if it is shot with an arrow when it is thawed. If you fall in this room, the ladder to get back up is on the north side of the silver eye's platform.
 
Go through the door and back into the twisted corridor to reach the twisted room. Drop down the hole in the floor to land in another weird room with a checkered floor. In this room the ceiling falls on the floor, but there are holes in the ceiling that you can safely stand underneath.  You'll have to take advantage of these holes to make it across, but be careful because there are Big skulltulas around, and your shooting accuracy with the Hookshot and Fairy Bow is thrown off in this room. There is a chest with arrows halfway across the room if you want or need to restock while in this room. Reach the switch on the floor and hit it to enter the next room.  
 
Here, there is a big painting of a Poe Sister. Pay close attention to its details. Then, shoot it with an arrow and five blocks will fall on the floor. Push and pull them so they fit together and match the picture of the Poe Sister above. One of them is a fake image and darker than the rest. Ignore it, because you have only one minute before they return to where they were. The block in the north west corner doesn't need to move.  Push the north east one into place right next to the other, push the south west block up into the other one to form a L shape, then pull the darker block away from the group and push the final block into place.
 
If you arrange the picture correctly then the third Poe Sister will emerge from it. This Poe Sister is Amy, the Poe Sister who snatched the green torch. Kill her just like you killed the other two Poe Sisters. The green torch will light both here and in the main room.  
 
Leave the room and kill the Big Skulltula in the next room.   


===The Last Poe Sister, Meg===
===The Last Poe Sister, Meg===
Now in the main room again (but at a previously unreachable spot) you'll notice the fourth Poe Sister crying over the deaths of her sisters just below you. Drop down and approach her to begin combat.

{{OoT Skulltula|title=Fourth Forest Skulltula|width=25%|contents=For the fourth Gold Skulltula, head into the north east room from the main room (you'll have to hit the golden eye above the barred door). Kill the Big Deku Baba and the Octorok, then use the Hookshot on the small wooden chest (it contains a single heart) to get up to the ledge with the Gold Skulltula.}}
Unlike the other Poes, you're in for a surprise; her name is Meg, the Poe Sister who snagged the purple torch. Because you killed her sisters, she wants revenge! She will make three copies of herself, so this can be tricky at times. The moment she and her clones appear, look for the one that briefly spins: that's the real one you need to destroy. After a few hits, she will be defeated; all the torches will light up, and the elevator will be reactivated.

The elevator will come back up. Get on the elevator and go down. In this room, there are two holes on the two sides. Look through them. Parts of the walls in the center part of this room are standing out and have handles on them. Go next to them and push once. Then let go and look and see if new holes are revealed.  
{{OoT Skulltula|title=Final Forest Skulltula|width=25%|contents=For the fifth and final Skulltula, head down the elevator and push the western wall northward.  The southwest room will be revealed, containing a Big Skulltula and a Gold Skulltula on the right wall.}}
Three switches are down here, hidden behind the walls. Hit the first you find to raise the cage blocking the second, then from there hit it to raise the cage blocking the third, and hit it and you will open up the path to the Boss room. On the Boss Door is a gold lock with horns. The Boss Key will open it.
The elevator will come back up. Get on the elevator and go down. In this room, there are two barred passages on the blue sides. Look through them. Two giant sections of the wall stick out into the center of this room (they are sitting on the two red sections of the floor) and are pushable from either side (like giant levers). Go next to them and push until the room starts to shift, opening new passages. Go and look to see what new doors opened up.
Three switches are down here, hidden behind the walls. First, head to the western lever and push it southwards.  Hit the first switch to raise the bars blocking the second.  From there, continue to push the wall south until you reach the second switch, which will raise the cage blocking the third.  Continue spinning the wall until you hit it open up the path to the Boss room. On the Boss Door is a gold lock with horns. The Boss Key will open it, so hopefully you already got it.


Enter the room and climb up the stairs. You will find that there is nothing in this room. If you try to leave, the boss will make his entrance. The exit gets blocked off by iron bars, trapping you inside the room. You will see who appears to be Ganondorf. It is not the real deal, but it is the boss of the Forest Temple - "Evil Spirit from Beyond: PHANTOM GANON".

===Paintings===
===Dangerous Paintings===
For the first half of the battle, you will watch Phantom Ganon and his horse enter one of the paintings on the wall. After Ganon reaches the end of the painting, he will turn around and two of him will be coming towards you. Identify the positions of the two and then look for the more colorful Phantom Ganon. A small, purple portal will form in front of the real Phantom Ganon when he reaches the front of the painting to allow him to emerge from it. He is your target. With your Fairy Bow ready, shoot him when he comes out of the painting.

If you aim for the decoy, it will turn around at the last second. If you miss your chance to hit Phantom Ganon and he emerges, he will shoot a ball of magic onto the floor with his scepter. Stay clear of it. After you hit Phantom Ganon with three arrows, he will stop entering paintings and let his horse ride off. This is now the second part of the boss battle.
