Aim for the Head with a Bow
Horriblins are the weakest type of horriblin, so you can usually take them out with one critical hit when aiming for the head with a bow and arrow.
Shooting them while they're hanging on cave ceilings also causes them to fall down to the floor and disables them for a time, giving you the chance to reach and attack them.
Throw Dazzlefruits to Make Them Fall
Using Dazzlefruits on Horriblins also causes them to fall and temporarily disables them on the ground. This gives you enough time to land hits on them or steal their weapons.
Use Spears During Close Combat
Horriblins crawl on cave ceilings and can be hard to reach when fighting them at close combat using short weapons. Spears can prove to be effective against them as it can reach most heights within small caves.
Use Recall to Return Thrown Rocks
Horriblins throw rocks at you and you can use Recall to throw it back at them, hitting them and making them fall down. This will render them incapacitated for a moment, giving you enough time to attack and defeat them.

Horriblin Overview
Horriblin Basic Info
 After the Upheaval, these monsters began appearing in Hyrule's cave systems. They have sturdy horns that are perfect for crushing rocks and strong muscles that allow them to traverse cave walls and ceilings as easily as if they were walking on the ground. They often hang from ceilings, waiting for prey. |
