Insight = inhuman knowledge. It enables you to see things you would otherwise be unable to perceive, most notably a certain type of eldritch entity which populates the game world. It also changes subtle details about certain enemies and the environment, and affects a certain boss fight. It lowers your frenzy resistance and your beasthood stat. You gain insight both from encountering and defeating bosses and also from discovering certain secrets and locations. Insight can be used as a currency to gain items from the messengers in the Hunter's Dream. Having high insight generally makes the game more difficult, but be aware that some of the rarest and most valuable items in the game can be acquired in exchange for a large amount of insight.
