    Go to the Hunter's Dream and obtain the Eye of a Blood-drunk Hunter from a messenger;
    Enter the square. To do this, go to the Oedon Chapel and get through the left-hand exit;

    Finally, don't forget to light the lamp in the new area so that you can come and go as you please from this place by using an Awakening Headstone in the Hunter's Dream.

The Bloodborne Wiki likewise provides some very useful patch notes:

You can also summon new Old Hunters into the game, but first you should have the Elder Summoning Bell at the Hunter's Dream. If you ring it, you will summon the Old Hunters at specific markers. While using the Elder Summoning Bell, you get to have only two NPC phantoms maximum. But with another co-op player in your world, you can only summon one NPC helper.
