Twinbellows is the Gatekeeper of the Underworld [[Fortress]] and the [[Three Sacred Treasures]]' [[Sacred Casket]] that lies within. Twinbellows travels slowly, spewing fireballs at Pit; these fireballs generally pass overhead and Pit's opening to attack is when Twinbellows is gearing up for another shot.

* [[Wikipedia:Orthrus|Orthrus]], the double-headed guard dog owned by [[Wikipedia:Geryon|Geryon]], was the inspiration for Twinbellows. Orthrus was the "brother" to [[Wikipedia:Cerberus|Cerberus]], another multi-headed canine that guarded the Gates of Hades.

* Twinbellows has a rather interesting name origin. While originally, its name referenced the fact that it has two heads that can roar, its newest appearance suggests that its name refers to an actual bellows, a device that delivers pressurized air. This is represented by the newly added funnels on its back that can shoot out pressurized bursts of fire.
*Of all the returning bosses from the original NES game, Twinbellows is the only boss not to receive a speaking voice in ''Uprising''.
