In this paper, we are interested in the continuity of the spectrum and some of its parts in the setting of Hilbert spaces. We study the continuity of the spectrum in the class of operators {T} + K(H), where K(H) denote the ideal of compact operators. Also, we give conditions in order to transfer the continuity of spectrum from T to T + K, where K ∈ K(H). Then, we characterize those operators for which the continuity of spectrum is stable under compact perturbations
