Thanks for watching this video, I really love making these types of essays, especially about topics like this. Hope you enjoyed it as much as I did making it! And if you haven't watched it, go watch my video about why Mario 64 is a disturbing game too: ua-cam.com/video/OV2YTbesy20/v-deo.html
@@GermanPeter Thanks btw if u like walking simulators u should play a game called Off-Peak its free on steam, and Its only 30 minutes so I'd say that's a good deal
How to make a mob scary: -Don't mention it in the update notes -Make sure it's a very rare encounter -Make it a short encounter (short spawn-time) For instance; imagine if the phantom was added to the game without any mention by the devs, imagine if it was a rare and short encounter. Nothing scares people more than the unknown.
@@Charliereed1106 This is why despite all the shit people give Roblox, THIS is why Roblox is somewhat decent for developing on, it's easy to cover up your code. Sadly the community ruins it.
Cave Update Notes: -Add new cave generation system -Add new ores -Add new items -Something is in the dark too, but we don't know what is it! Oh well, maybe it's just our imagination I can see Mojang doing this lol
The good old "You cannot sleep now, there are monsters nearby" when there's absolutely nothing within eyeshot is always a good feeling, for just how blunt the wording is. "There IS something nearby that WILL kill you if you let your guard down", says the game with no apparent dangers in the vicinity. Cool, thanks.
That happened to me on a buggy old survival server or world, I don't remember which. I was trying to sleep but the game said "You cannot sleep now, there are monsters nearby"
My creepiest Minecraft story is pretty simple: I was on a private multiplayer server that me and my friends used and still use, though this was a few years back. 1.11.2 had just been released, and after some hard work update from 1.10, we managed to get the server running again. No visible issues. Houses were in their normal spots. Everybody still had everything in their inventory. Tamed animals were all still in their usual spots. Then, it appeared. It was a wolf. It was dark, obviously suffering from a lighting bug. We call it Black Shuck now because of what happened. Right after I died, I respawned next to my bed and looked through my inventory. Yes, we have keepinventory on. Deal with it. Nobody wants to lose their stuff due to an unfair death. Anyway, I had just spawned next to my bed and saw Black Shuck walking around. He looked tamed, but nobody could make him sit. We got one of our friends, the server admin, to log on, and even they couldn't make him sit. We chalked it up to lag or a bug, and then went our separate ways. Thats when I noticed Black Shuck was following me. I couldn't make him sit, yet he followed me like he was my dog. He wouldn't attack any mobs. He would just follow me. Then, Black Shuck teleported when I moved too far away from him, pushed me into a lava pit, and I died. Again. Black Shuck didn't teleport to me. Black Shuck randomly followed my friends one after the other, most of them somehow dying when this glitched wolf was with them. Then, after a week of Black Shuck terrorizing us, I logged in. All of my animals were gone. Cows, sheep, horses, chickens, wolves. Gone. The same with everybody else's farms. Nobody saw Black Shuck again, though seeing wolves with that same lighting bug still makes me squirm. Apparently, there had been a bug when updating. The admin redid the update, ridding us of Black Shuck.. and seven farms full of animals.
The scary/unsettling parts of Minecraft mostly become normal and expected once you've been playing for a third of your life, mainly because you gain an understanding of almost everything in the game and how they function from a technical perspective. This is why when I first tried VR Minecraft, I had to take a break because I was legitimately panicking trying to escape a cave. I knew how the game worked, and I knew that I could easily fight off any mob since it was on easy difficulty, but because of my unfamiliarity with the controls and how immersed I was, I subconsciously lost trust in my abilities. I was genuinely scared of losing my stuff, in the same way I was scared of the strange creature outside my dirt hut 8 years ago.
I think there should be a new game mode even more focused on survival than survival. Harder and less forgiving. Like hardcore, but in ultra hard mode or something. Maybe change the mob ais as well to be better at tracking you down. And just making it a more interesting and challenging scary survival experience. Maybe more fog. Maybe creepers can track you through walls and blow up lazy 1x1 safety huts. This way you will have to build an actually protected base. Maybe have more mobs able to influence blocks like endermen can. Or maybe angry endermen being able to intelligently place blocks or destroy them so mobs can get to you easier. Maybe an actually hard ender dragon that requires gear like netherite and potions to have a chance at beating it.
@@SantanaBanana47 That seems like it could be a good idea, but it would need to be implemented in a way where it's not just harder, but unpredictable. Minecraft seemed scary when we first played it because all we knew about the game was what we had seen in videos. We didn't know what to expect, or how things worked. It would need to somehow recreate the wonder and unsure-ness that we experienced as kids being new to the game.
Me and my friend accidentally hit each other so our wolves started to attack us, we killed wolves but the growling didn't stop, no matter how far away we went or if we left the world
W-wait wolf are you alive WOLF!!?!!?! WOLF!!!!!!!!! wait..your name should be something different BUT THE SOUL OF WOLF CHANGED YOUR NAME OH NO YOUR DEAD!!!! WE SHOULD MAKE A VOICE FOR IT REPORT IT TO POLICE!!!
The thing that scares me the most is the silence, the loneliness and the darkness. You know how whenever you go spelunking, and the void that isn't lit up, looking at is anxiety inducing; combined with cave sounds, it's straight panic inducing. Who knows what could lie beyond the darkness. Also, I miss void fog because of the extra eerieness it added.
When I was younger, I used to think cave noises meant Herobrine was in my world. So I always deleted those worlds. Another thing that scared me was the caves, and they still do. They're these big, almost live system that could swallow you hole. One of the scariest experiences for me is being trapped in the Nether, I had to go very far to find a Nether fortress. And forgot to take the position of my portal, I had no food and was lost. It took me about an hour to stumble across it, from sheer luck.
Same with the nether. A ghast broke my portal and I didnt bring a lighter so after an hour of avoiding ghasts and looking for a lighter I decided to dig some trenches near the portal and force the ghasts to shoot me so they could light the portal for me.
This reminds me of the time me my brother and our friend basically discovered fucking time travel in Minecraft when we were younger, we got lost in the nether while in creative fucking around, and we couldn’t find the original portal. So basically we made a bunch of other portals that took us to different locations far away from our base, and eventually we made one that somehow took us to our Minecraft world BEFORE we had destroyed it. (Keep in mind before we went to the nether we had TNT’d our houses because we were bored) it was probably a glitch with the save files but still cool.
Now i realize that maybe herobrine got really famous because maybe a lot of kids didn't have good computers and have to play whit the lowest render distance, having that sensation of being not alone all the time
Yeah you are so right. As a kid the fog was always spooky, I always thought something else was there. Not herobrine either. I lived in the country alone too so it just made it worse. Nothing ever happened, but playing alone in the basement in the country home alone was quite terrifying for a 12 year old. I even lit the fireplace as a kid. Just to top off the ambiance. I miss that :/ nostalgic scary memory. Edit my parents owned the house I just happen to be home alone after school everyday for a few hours. I reread my comment and it made no sense that a 12 year old lived alone.
Personal theory: Zombies are you. Like, they are players who died, their bodies at least. You are the only human there and when you respawn your body, the dead one, spawns as another zombie while your soul gets new body and awakes in bed. And the buildings and structures are made by your alternate self, ones that fulfiled the game aka beat ender dragon or died in hardcore/deleted their worlds. You build it and all is cyclical
Weird theory, MatPat made one like this: minecraft had a civilization, but they got too weak because of the wither, they din' know how to defeat it, the ones in the overworld died due to hunger or the Wither, turning into zombies and skeletons, some of them ran into the nether, also got killed by mobs, and turned into Wither skeletons, some ran to the End, they built everything there, and the dragon din't attack them, but they weren't able to come back, soon their materials and food were gone, BUT! There was Chorus Fruit, they ate only it for years and turned into Endermans. And *you* were created by the Pillagers
you know.. in the "being alone.. or not" section you couldve brought up the fact that after you beat the enderdragon you find out that 2 entitties were watching you the entire time, (if you read the credits) and if you can understand them they kinda explain the lore of the game. but that also creepy, they talk about demons and other things. like they being the universe or so.
The context is that the entities are talking about witches riding brooms. The 'stick powered by demons' is a magic broomstick because old interpretations of witches were women who had made pacts with demons.
Honestly, the whole game just makes me feel uneasy and when I'm playing, especially in singleplayer, I feel really creeped out. I think it might come from the fact that if I were to die in a really unfortunate way, my items may be lost forever, or that my house and very expensive items may be destroyed by a wayward creeper that I simply did not pay attention to. The surreal ambience of the game, strange noises, hostile environment, and melancholy music tracks really blend together to make an atmosphere of strange uneasiness in a game that by all means is kid-friendly and not meant to be scary.
I found that the simpler graphics of the game have a lot to do with it as well, when playing with shaders, a lot of that vanilla creepiness is lost, meanwhile when I bump down the graphics settings to the minimum, (especially render distance) the uneasy atmosphere heightens. It gets even creepier if you go below vanilla minimum using optifine.
@@qwargly Oddly enough, even with shaders, it's still creepy for me. Actually, in all honesty, it's probably because the effects are cool but it can be visually harder to see stuff depending on where you're at. for example, the shadows are much better/darker than vanilla, so if there's a roofed forest nearby where enemies can spawn or something, it's much harder to see than in vanilla. Also, it makes the world feel more real and immerses me more, so the fact that there are no friends with me is a bit more unsettling to me. makes me feel like I'm *actually* alone.
I remember I was playing on a single player word one time, building a haunted mansion. I finished building it, and stood back to admire it. Suddenly, I heard footsteps running towards me. There was nothing that could possibly move nearby. Then they just stopped, and I was left there in silence. I got freaked out and left the mansion, hesitant to go back to it again.
probably wood, wood makes this noise that sounds like footsteps creaking, it may sound like MC normal footsteps. Happened to me. Took a while to figure it out.
I will give you explanation when something scary happen in Minecraft: If you hear foot steps in your home and there no someone or your pet, you need carefull because maybe there is a Creeper or other monster. If you heard cave noise in your home,that mean you life in top of a cave. If you hearing footsteps and you not walking and there no mob,that mean you lag or your Minecraft have bug. If you see mob spawn in your house,you need put more light like a torch. that is my explanation and i am a Minecraft veterans.
This is why i set up base next to a village 95% of the time. It just feels more lively, less lonely and, with the rework to how villagers work, you feel very involved in their lives and responsible for their prosperity. At least that's what i think.
I did that once. After a few days, the villagers started to go missing, with no apparent cause. I had set up iron golems around the village, and whenever I visited them, the golems were always in pristine condition. Eventually it was just one cleric, who actually came to my house and started living there. I don't know why or how it could have happened, but it is a strangely interesting story.
Bro I have a problem with that, they always end up getting killed one way or another, I had a whole place dwindle to nothing. So now I just avoid villages like I bring bad luck or something.
Imagine how horrifying it would be if you turn around sometime And than you see your skin in the distance, with NO gamertag. He would have his back facing you so you cant identify it, and Once you see him, than cave noises play. That would be the best horror experience.
ive played plenty of horror games but minecraft (especially earlier versions) is genuinely the scariest game ive ever played, and it isnt even a horror game its crazy how early minecraft set up that survival atmosphere and managed to be so scary
Both that early sense of being fragile in the game as well as it being smaller and the updates given less fanfare probably made it feel more mysterious and unpredictable, I think. Even if you get how Minecraft works, none of that matters in the early days because it just didn't exist.
My creepy experience is actually recent. I call them lost mobs On the server i play on there’s been a recent glitch where there would be these hostile mobs that would “spawn” in. I say spawn in quotations because they aren’t really there. They don’t interact with players and nothing can attack them. You can’t build on top of them. They won’t move All they do is sit on the same block and stare off into the distance. Sometimes they’re only there for a couple seconds other times it’s hours. The lost mobs wouldn’t be too creepy if it weren’t for the fact that they tend to happen in groups and sometimes one of the group members isn’t as lost as you thought.
Something else happend to me, When I was younger I didn’t have a pc so I would play the Xbox 360 version of Minecraft, One day I decided to make my own survival world. This survival world was a mountain biome. I searched for hours but couldn’t find any other biomes. I walked and I found red stone torches placed down and I freaked out and turned off my xbox thinking it was hero brine. Skip forward a couple years when I actually gotten a pc, the pc sucked but it could still run Minecraft with a render distance of 2. One day I heard a weird noise in my room. I went to go see but nothing was there. I came back to my pc to find a zombie and basically just standing there with no ai. I tried killing them but it didn’t work. I assumed lag and waited for a couple minutes but they still wouldn’t move at all.
Omg that happened to me too!!! I was playing Creative in a superflat Peaceful world and I was chilling in a village. A baby zombie suddenly appeared, staring at the fence and not moving. It was there for DAYS (IRL DAYS IM NOT KIDDING). I would turn on Hard mode, go back to peaceful, and nothing! It was just there. What scared me even more was when I went into Spectator mode, I was able to click on it and spectate it. It was terrifying. It appeared out of nowhere when it shouldnt have been possible, just stayed there for days, and couldnt be affected in any way AT ALL. I put some fences around it just in case it randomly moved, but nothing. Then, after like, an IRL week of it being there, it vanished. Freakin' Cotton-Eye Joe'd me. Where did it come from? Where did it go? Where did it come from, Cotton-Eye Joe?
Weird, when I used to show my parents some things on my computer, I always thought they were still standing behind me watching for a while, even thouhg they were already gone.
*This.* Creepiness is the spice of videogames, I've been saying that for years. Every game just earns a +10 in atmosphere if there's some creepy aspect in it.
100%! The variety of structures long abandoned is absolutely terrifying to me! I've always wondered what happened to everyone, and if we're doomed to the same fate.
The “Player Apparition” bit reminded me of one of the wildest things I’ve ever witnessed in all of my eight years of playing Minecraft. Long ago, my siblings and I were celebrating my best friend’s birthday party over at his house. We both had Minecraft Xbox360 Edition, and wanted to do a Hunger Games - LAN party thing in a small map we built. My Xbox was in the living room, hosting my brother, sister, and myself; my friend’s Xbox was in his family room, hosting him and his sister. His crummy internet is totally to blame for what happens, but this seriously blew our minds. The game was underway, going about as well as one could expect from a bunch of middle schoolers facing off against one another. I ran down an alleyway and then turned out into a street, chasing my brother and letting a few arrows fly after him. I missed all my shots, and the game went on. A little later, I was up on top of the city’s tall water tower, trying to snipe when I get pushed off to my demise. Having been slain, and therefore out of the game, I headed over to the other room to watch my friend and his sister play. It was down to the last two people: my brother, and my friend’s sister. She was running on the street that my brother and I were on earlier - going the opposite direction he was - when it happened. Much to our surprise, I came out of the alley and fired some arrows just as I did towards my brother, KILLING MY FRIEND’S SISTER. I still had my controller with me, but wasn’t using it; plus, when I checked my screen I was still in the spawn area we built. How this anomaly of internet shenanigans happened is still confusing to this day.
Terribly bad and outdated issues that appeared to cause a weird mixmatch of stuff bugs are that hard to decipher as often they do not make no sense to what or why it happens
I love how German Peter still sounds cheery even when talking about this. Most people will try to BS a creepy voice but not German Peter he shows up to every video with a happy voice, I love it!
I have a pretty interesting one: Me and my cousin had a server. It was a small, cheap server just for two of us. it was set to allow non premium players. One day some guy started joining it. His name was "Sheep". He started placing armor stands in full white leather armor and sheep heads around the world. I tried banning them, setting up whitelist, restricting gamemodes and sheep kept appearing. It stopped after about 2 weeks. We actually made him into kind of a deity of the server.
Okay since everyone is sharing their spoopy minecraft stories I got one for ya. So I used to play minecraft pocket edition ALOT before it was updated to be morn in line with modern versions of the game. I had I world that was roughly 2 to 3 years old and this was before infinite worlds were added to pocket edition so I had a pretty good idea of where everything was and had most things safe and protected. So one day I was just playing the game working my mansion and my creeper pixel art but it just felt so off, there was slightly more mobs than usual despite the only place they could spawn was underground or in my janky primitive mob farm. On top of that I had an iron door that was closed with button to open it to get into my mine but the door was open. By all means that shouldn't of happened but I chocked it up too a bug or me messing it up somehow. So I went into my mine and got like 13 diamonds or so then ended up falling lava because I got shot by a skeleton. And as I usually do when I die...i rage quit and went to bed for the night. And i had a dream I was playing the game and working on my mansion I walked over to a chest outside to grab more wood and turned around to see it burning to the ground, and for some reason I started running towards the mine with the open door from earlier and shut myself inside. Then looked out the window and saw all the cows staring at me as a figure that looks like the player model but all black break the door and walk in. The dream ended there but the next day I did get back on the game and the mansion did burn down due to me screwing up the fire place. It was simply the most odd and unexplained thing that ever happened to me and I don't have the world anymore sadly but it had this aura to it after that and made just not wanna play on it.
I remember back in beta on a singleplayer world (the famous "glacier" seed), I had made one of those Herobrine "spawners" for fun as a little monument. The one with the gold blocks, redstone torches, mossy cobble and burning Netherrack. I built it because I found the creepypasta amusing and obviously didn't believe in it, hell, Notch himself confirmed it was fake. It was near my house in a place of honor. Anyways, one day I had just put the finishing touches on a suspension bridge I was really proud of over the big lake between some of the seed's famous mountains. On one side, I had a tunnel leading to my house. On the other side, I was planning to excavate a 5x5 tunnel with a rounded top all the way through the mountain and have a staircase down into the forest. I had just finished the bridge itself, and left the tunneling for tomorrow since it was getting late on a school night. The next day, after finishing homework, I logged on and opened my world. I made some tools to get ready for digging, and walked out of my house. Almost immediately, I noticed that the flame on the "spawner" had gone out. Every Minecrafter should know this, but if you don't, Netherrack burns forever if you light it on fire. It won't fizzle out on its own. Sorta eerie, but probably just a bug. Then I walked over my new suspension bridge, and...there was already a 2x2 tunnel, dug about a third of the way through the mountain. I had NO memory of digging that. The only thing that could have happened was perhaps I was incredibly sleepy and dug a little bit of the way before giving up, thus not remembering it? But I DO specifically remember logging off for the school night without digging. My brother also likes Minecraft, but he hadn't gotten into it yet. It would be like 4 more months before he considered trying the game, at the time he couldn't give a rat's ass about my world. In all likelihood, there's probably a combination of bugs or some kind of explanation to account for these events. While I know in my heart that Herobrine isn't real, I'd certainly like to believe he could be. But when I was younger, that certainly creeped the hell out of me and I didn't play that world for like a week. Good times...
I have a story to share... It happened last year, I was organizing my chests outside my house when I caught a glimpse of an Enderman looking directly at me when I closed the chest and ran to kill it. As I ran towards him, and he just kept looking at me when at the last second he ran away and I didn't come where he went. I thought it was strange since endermans don't like it when they are faced, but this one was making a point of facing me. The point is that this kept happening, I saw him watching me from a distance, I ran to kill him and he escaped from my sight, it was as if he was studying me waiting for the right moment to attack me. There was a place where I almost always saw him, a cave near my house so I decided to check this place out. To my surprise he was there however ... with three pillagers, when they noticed me Enderman went deeper into the cave leaving me alone to fight with them. It was like he hired killers after me or that the mobs were up to me...
As I saw Endermans react and or stay still if you directly look at them into the eyes Lowering your sight as soon as you see them makes them spawn and try to attack you. Its something I recetly viewed in some videos I think from Antvenom if I remember. They try to often teleport away when you attack them especially when trying to hit their body. But its quite interesting how all of this worked out! :o I am so glad reading all of this curious stories!
so this is my "creepy experience which was probably just a bug or somethin'" me and my brother are playing minecraft, this happened like a year ago or something, so he's five and I'm fourteen. I leave for a bit, and he keeps playing. but what was odd was that he saw me even when I was gone. repeating actions I done minutes before I left. I walked down a path, went into my house, other stuff. And when I ACTUALLY rejoined, he couldn't see me. after like, two or three minutes, the weird me disappeared, And he could see me again. It was probably just a rendering glitch or something, but it was still creepy for him.
@@1FenFen1 funny enough, I remember reading something about this with essentially the same story, except instead of the phantom player just redoing your actions they attempted to kill the other player.
When I was a kid and just started minecraft, I didn't know anything about endermen. One day while I was in a cave, I saw purple eyes in the far distance. I didn't know what it was since it was pretty dark. I looked at the eyes trying to identify what I was looking at and suddenly, he teleported right in front of me. That was the biggest jumpscare I've ever had in my life. That shit scared me so badly that I had nightmares for the next couple weeks. It was 9 years ago and I still remember it till this day.
"Early Minecraft was scarier" Peter, you don't know how much I agree with you here, a few months ago I started a 1.7 survival world for old times sake, and all I have there is a crappy cave house I built because of fear from mobs, a nether portal, a snow golem, and an unenchanted diamond pickaxe, I'm too scared to look at myself ffs.
The depressing music that plays in the nether Minecraft isn’t scary for I just get anxiety that feeling when bridging over the void like something or someone is behind you ready to push you off
@@Ecb23 end city isn't as bad as building bridges in the neither and especially not the overworld, creepers and skeletons cause paranoia to go through the roof when on a precarious position.
i had recently opened up a survival server for me and my friends to play around in. it was just me and one other friend online at the time, we had only been playing for about half an hour or something like that. eventually my friend decided to go down the stairs to go mining while i decorated our base. at some point while he was down there, he disconnected from the game due to connection issues. nothing too strange, since his internet isn't the greatest. a few moments later he had rejoined. he mentioned how all of his items from his inventory were gone and immediately disconnected again. i turned to look down the stairs where he was right as he left, and it was normal. totally empty, like it should be. but then he appeared again with all his gear, there wasn't any sort of message saying that he had rejoined... that was really strange, since he also mentioned he was still trying to fix the problem and that he'll rejoin in a minute. i asked if he had gotten it fixed and he replied saying he had, but hadn't rejoined yet. then, the strangest thing happened. he pulled out his iron sword and started running up the stairs towards me. just as he reached one of the last few steps, he vanished and text appeared saying my friend had rejoined the server. i assumed he was trolling me, but after he rejoined i'm unsure. probably a glitch, but still a strange experience... honestly brought me back to the times when i believed in herobrine.
bruh my connection is bad too and i had the same experience with you just a couple weeks ago with my friends on a private minecraft server, but my friend experienced it not me
Oh boy, weird Minecraft glitches. I’ve got a great one.a few months back I made a Minecraft realms server with two buddies of mine. One afternoon I left the game while sitting in a boat. The following night I turned the game on and found myself in a horrible sort of limbo, I was hovering a block/meter off the ground, completely invisible to all other players, and unable to break any blocks. I could still access chat however, and the other guy playing at the time thought I was pulling a prank on him. It was like I’d been turned into some sort of Minecraft ghost.
I used to mod Minecraft PE a lot and one time I thought, what if I teleport to a non existing number. I did and I ended up in a void inside a bedrock block, similar to when you clip inside a bedrock block in McPE
@AleNoConstancy Yeah, normally Minecraft would straight up crash, but maybe Minecraft has a failsafe. If you can't interpret a number, then you are put in limbo
Kinda late on this video but here's my creepiest Minecraft story: Back on my old Xbox 360 I was on the old TU11 tutorial world using creative mode by myself making basic things like a sky house made out of diamonds and pixel art. I wanted to make some weird building where mobs can have a "party" so I made a glass square house and added simple things like water for a pool and a music box for CDs. Everything went fine I added some zombies and skeletons and left to build something else far off in the distance (I think it was a roller coaster or a fun house) after maybe an hour later I checked on the mob party house and half of it was destroyed and the mobs were nowhere to be found I got freaked out and being 11 still believing in Herobrine I quickly closed the world and deleted it.
1. If the Mob party was made with glass they could still burn in daylight 2. The chunks in xbox are glitched, if you get too far from a mob he dissapears
YuriGamerYT no it is still in Java. In the early 1.16 version I built a dragon and when I logged black on the dragon got ruined because it was split in half
For me about 6 years ago I dug a mine under my home, but had no organization I just had a 1×2 tunnels that twisted and turned and went in circles, after about 2 months of playing I had some real life issues and when I returned to the world I was in the farthest depth of the mine at around bedrock level I had left the map without having any iron since I assumed I would play shortly thereafter but I legitimately built a labyrinth and couldn't find my way out and with the last bit of food running out and still running in circles I was legitimately afraid and lost. Since then I make central tunnels to mines with them being 4×4 tunnel with offshoots being 3×4 and the mine being entirely grid based. The labyrinth I built scared me more than any maze based horror games I've ever played.
i had the same experience. about 6 years ago i made the same thing, being on bedrock level and making tunnels like you did. And when i wanted to return to my home i didnt make it (sorry for bad english)
Back many years ago I had this Minecraft world on Pocket Edition (this was way before the nether or infinite worlds were a thing on pocket edition). I played on this world pretty much every day, often with my brother and/or step-brother. The world was for the most part very ordinary, not many weird things happened, well at least until one evening. A big hole just appeared outside my home (similar to an explosion) with a sign at the bottom of it. I don’t recall exactly what the sign said, but I think it was very akin to a “Oooh I’m gonna get you” threat. The text also had a couple of curse words on it which really caught me be surprise since I was so young. Almost all the animals in my world disappeared at the same time as well. I still think about it from time to time. Like, what really happened? The most logical explanation would have to be that the mobs just glitched and despawned. As for the hole and sign, I guess it could’ve been my brother maybe, though he is a very nice guy so I don’t understand why he would scare me like that, especially since he has never been that kind of person to scare people.
One time, i was in the neather. I was playing on a laptop, so sadly the baterry died when i was in the neather. When i loaded the world back up, i spawned on the deafault spawn location. My house was deleted. I was at first sad but then i thought i coupd regather the diamonds that i found earlier. I walked into the cave i usually mined in. Then, i saw my mineshaft. The one i went down to look for diamonds in. My house was deleted, but my mine wasnt. This was probably my weirdest minecraft experience.
Sometimes when minecraft is saving things, and it crashes or your computer shuts down, it will revert the chunks being svaed currently to the original state, but if your Mineshaft wasn't being saved, it stayed.
I recognize that horse. It freaked me the fuck out when it started moving around like that. My friend Aaron wanted to get his skeleton horse back after he tried to solve the lag crisis by killing all of the turtles with a command but ended up killing every mob except the turtles because of a typo. He started experimenting with the values of his horse that he was spawning and tested out increasing the speed value by an absurd amount. We found the maximum speed we could set it to before it got so fast that it would go out of bounds and teleport back where it started, and after many iterations it became invincible too. By that time that iteration of the horse was pure white and we named it ness horse in zalgo text as a joke that Aaron's previous skeleton horse was called Sans horse. It was so powerful that it could often kill its rider with fall damage, and instead of walking around idly without a rider it would teleport. We dug a pit and put it in, and over time it lost it's name tag and became known as 'the bastard'. at the end of the server's life, someone broke it out of it's prison but died trying to ride it, near a river so far away no one ever found it again. Then we stopped playing on the server, except one person who kept it as a single player world. Before you say it's the same horse, that's impossible as Peter said his encounter happened in 2018 while ness horse was created in 2019. I do know however that his horse must have been the result of a command (the command ended up being so long the horse just spawned tamed and with a saddle)
Since I first played the game eight years ago I've had this backstory in my head, where multiplayer servers are an echo of the past, showing civilized life before and sometimes during its slow, dreadful decay into what we know as singleplayer, where Steve is the only remaining survivors of the human race.
I weird idea, very similar. Each update is chronologically going back in the game's time. When you set the updates in that order, it shows the decay of a once vibrant world, until nothing is left but grass and the player.
Me and my friend actually have two “haunted” armor stands in our world. They twitch and change poses all by themselves, and tilting slightly. The creepiest thing was they would only twitch when only I was looking. When I friend would watch them, they would stay completely still. We even made a dark basement area for the fist one we had, and loud cave noises would play whenever we were close to him, and even if we were about to enter the basement. Honestly, it’s the scariest thing I’ve ever seen in Minecraft.
For real tho i think you had Redstone around or you just accidentally clicked at it because if you right click or something at the armor stand that happens
I had cursed stands too. I was coming to my house and stand changed poses, I was young and i was on singleplayer, one time i came home stand was... GONE, it scared the #### out of me.
Back on a server called “Green.EpicMine.Time” there was this time where I was just standing in my base and a really loud noise happened and scared me. I’m pretty sure it was the admins playing with plugins and they probably played the dragon death noise but I thought it was this thing called the “Ender Giant”. I thought that because there was this animation of the same name and it scared me. Great video man, I’m loving these new kinds of videos.
Weirdly enough, about a year ago something similar actually happened to me twice on a bedrock edition survival world. I was casually chilling inside my house which I built in a village, all of sudden I hear a very loud ender dragon scream/roaring out of nowhere, this still creeps me out.
My theory on why the horses died: You hit the ghost horse multiple times. It possibly couldnt figure out which horse was getting hit, and just distributed the damage equally across all horses. I think I saw a bit of a knockback effect when the horses died, so that further supports the theory
Here's my weird Minecraft story: I was playing on my multiplayer world (split-screen on bedrock) with some of my friends. The day before we had been exploring the end, and when one of my friends exited the portal, he was in the credits sequence. While that was happening I closed the world (Save and Quit). Then the next day I logged on and my friend who was in the credits was immediately thrown into the void, and the other one was back at the world spawn, without anything, even though he had quit before I had quit (in bedrock split-screen if player one, in this case me, quits everyone else does too). Then, the time after-next the second friend randomly got his stuff back, lost what he had gained the day before, and was teleported back to his bed where he should have been in the first place.
A good friend of mine let me use her Minecraft account back when playing in a browser was still a thing a bit before 1.5 came out I believe. I was obsessed like most kids my age so I knew most all of the basics of the game. I loaded into my first word explored for a bit and decided to build my house in an open area within a cave. The house was small only really a cobble stone wall enclosed by naturally generated cave the room itself was only 2 blocks wide and maybe 4 or 5 long and the roof was as high as the cave, maybe 5 or 6 tall and all capped of with an iron door and two stone buttons. The room had a bed, crafting table and was lit with a furnace. The furnace went out just as I went to sleep when I awoke on the other end of my room just in front of the door there was two glowing purple eyes, an enderman, well I did know what it was that didn’t stop it from scarring 10 year old me. What I did not know however is that endermen don’t like being looked at, and it attack me. terrified I scrambled for the door only to not be able to press the button under pressure and being attacked. Needless to say it killed me. To this day I can’t look at endermen in-game without feeling instantly sick. Luckily for me that noise they make wasn’t in the game until 1.5 because if I heard that I bet I would’ve never been able to play that game again.
I don't remember the crepy stories when I was playing Minecraft. Instead when I was really young I was scared so much by water. I was skipping every water biomes and rivers just to not see that blue textures ( that simulating you are underwater ) to pop on my screen. Also water biomes, I was really afraid how deep they are, what is there, when I was spawning in the middle of the ocean I was deleting world and create new one and so on.
The ocean is kinda scary in every game to me, actually even in real life. The feeling of not knowing what's down there since there could be anything that we don't even know existed in a place where our bodies are at a complete disadvantage, that's kinda terrifying to me
Fortunately for you they've since changed how the game renders when you're underwater. I think I can understand you though, for some reason the old, barren oceans were really creepy. Don't get me wrong the lush new oceans we have now are also creepy in their own right (It is theorized that many people before you have died in the ocean in the game's lore, so when you go diving you're technically visiting a mass grave)
A year or so ago I was playing singleplayer on a hardcore world when a creeper came along and blew up next to me. I survived but the bird on my shoulder did not. Its death message showed up in chat and it was the only bird I had. I was sad and angry so that night I went on a spree killing only creepers that spawned. When I returned to my house, who else but my bird was sitting on the ground next to the hole the creeper made. No idea how it came back after 100% dying, and this was not on a modded world.
I think tamed animals can sometimes glitch like that. The exact same thing happened to me and also in one minecraft single player let's play I watched. In the let's play, the youtuber tamed a dog, it then died to a skeleton rather quickly. Then, like 5 episodes later, the dog just randomly teleported to him out of nowhere. And from my personal experience, my cat died in a nuclear reactor explosion while I was playing moded minecraft. When I went to fix the giant hole after the explosion, my cat was just sitting there, like nothing ever happened.
I remember in the old XBOX edition their was a green sky I didn't know why so I thought Herobrine was in my disk until my parents turned the XBOX off via the menu
9 year old me couldn't play for a week when I first heard them, I'm 16 now and I been playing a whole decade now and cave noises still scare me. Just not as much anymore
One time, I was playing my creative MC world, I was decorating a house and was adding some animals as pets. Immediately, all of the animals I placed ran off towards a crafting table in the corner of the room. And one by one, as they jumped onto the crafting table all of them died. One of them which I named (Fluffy) also jumped on and it said in chat “Fluffy hit the ground too hard”
1:40 that one sound at the very start, that has so much impact to me. I hope other people watched The Haunting or something, I forgot what it was called. The Minecraft videos, I always loved them. This cave sound played in them. Man, I miss those videos. I should watch them again. It's been 5 years, I think.
Back when i was new to minecraft in general, i kept seeing endermen. Anytime i started a new world, there would be 1-3 near me. It really didn't matter if it was night or day, several would show up and they wouldn't really go away. Even on public servers. I wasn't just seeing a pattern that wasnt there, it was CONSTANT. I, a very fearful and paranoid child, decided that I would just try to leave them be. I didn't kill any of them, to the point that I'd leave cheats on specifically to give myself ender pearls. This started years ago. From the first survival world i ever spawned in. It still happens. I've gotten used to seeing them. I've learned endermen's quirks, don't hurt them as a rule, hear them nearby when mining, and in a weird way? I kinda feel safe with them. The tension of their presence has never stopped, but some part of my brain has started labeling them as 'other people'. Weird, tall, extremely disrespectful to public property and slightly murderous people, but they make the world feel a bit less lonely. I have no idea if this is normal for anyone else, but hey, it's normal for me!!!
I have something a bit like this, when im mining i would hear random endermen sounds for no reason, didn't know why. I kept looking around to try and kill them for ender pearls, but couldn't find them.
Once an enderman I looked at (mid day too) just vanished, I logged off then back on days later and he ambushed me outside my door. He could have come into my house, there was space, but no, he waited for me to go outside, across play sessions.
I've been loved to hunt those black tall bois (endermens) because it's soo fun to collect their ender pearls and grass blocks their carrying and you guys had endermens spawn mostly while mine hides from me :/
I can attest to those multiplayer apparitions. When me and my friend were like 12 we were playing and he was lagging really badly, leaving behind creepy ghosts of himself.
honestly, from my memory, the only times ive ever been scared in minecraft were mobs sneaking up on me. also this creeper just dropped from the roof of a cave on a server and blew up almost instantly (i think, it may be a case of my brain remembering it as "creeper fall, scream like a bitch, dead")
The thing about herobrine is that it was possible for him to exist on a technical level, not even in updates but right here and now (as a in game content / glitch). Not only update logs included him, and most of mentioned glitches were possible. im pretty sure that mob looking like a steve existed, and white eyes could be result of fog / glitch, not to mention weird steve like face in disc spectogram. And yes, all of those things are separate, but it was hard to not connect them.
I've seen the white eyes bug happen in an old video, there were several pigs with white eyes but as the person didn't say anything about it, I think it wasn't a troll or they trying to scare people
I wish that other players could not see your phantoms. It would make them so much scarier. Especially since that means only you would be able to fight them.
I remember playing on a now defunct minecraft server called wizard craft, no one played on it so i just roamed, out of nowhere i got TPed to some random "player" named F_Herobrine, i got killed and got teleported to where i died, there was a grave with my username at the time Ianbry on it and a chest under it with my stuff, i grabbed it absolutly terrified and then i got TPed into a 1 block wide 2 block tall cave system thing, and i got killed again. it freaked me out so much i ran out of the garage (thats where the PC was) and played little bit planet on my ps3 to calm me down
Freakiest thing that ever happened to me was when I was playing with the RLCraft modpack on peaceful. I had tamed a horse so that I could get around quicker. Eventually, after finding a place to settle down, I went out on the horse to find a village so I can grab some food (I also had the Hunger In Peace mod installed). After stopping and dismounting my horse near a village, I went to go grab some beetroot and whatnot. When I turned around, my horse was just... gone. I tried looking around for it, but couldn't find it. I knew it couldn't have despawned, as I wasn't off the horse for long and I stayed within the same general area. Eventually, I just went to sleep in the village, and when I woke up, the horse was back in the general area of where I initially dismounted. It was when I left the village and went back home that I realized that it was probably just the game freaking out for some reason, seeing as the horse vanished right before my eyes when I dismounted.
At around 14:50, I half expected you to say something along the lines of 'the right man in the wrong place' EDIT: Also, a notable story, herobrine scared me so much that I once got up in the middle of the night as like a small child to investigate a noise and hid in my parent's laundry room because I didn't have the balls to go back because of herobrine. My mom found me a few hours later doing something idk it was like 11 pm but it felt like DAYS
Well I remember when I was playing minecraft on my old xbox 360 messing around with like putting lava and setting things on fire since I was young. Then in the distance I saw a zombie running and jumping like a player in day time. This startled me since I have never seen a zombie run and jump like a player. It seemed to keep running in one direction till it got to a cave. It was as if it was leading me there. The worst thing is that it was single player... But it could be my imagination since when you're young imagination is very powerful. Thank you for listening.
My Creepiest Minecraft Moment: I had just started a brand new creative world and had built a house that I really liked, and keep in mind i was like 8 so the house was actually really bad. Anyways I decided to build a roller coaster and while building it i noticed a completely black playermodel almost out of my render distance, but I ignored it and continued building. Then when i finished the roller coaster i rode a couple times and went to my house to skip the night. When I woke up again I saw a black playermodel nearly outside of my render distance this time looking at me, then I got creeped out and went to my friend's house and we played Minecraft on his PS4 for a bit. When I got home I logged on and those chunks I saw the black playermodel in had been deleted, completely gone. So, I just kept building me being a stupid 8 year old thought building traps would help, so I did and satisfied I was gonna beat "Herobrine" I went to bed. The next day I woke up and logged into my world and the chunks my house were in had been deleted. So I stopped playing on that world for a while. About 2 months later I decided to go back to that world and one of the chunks my house was in had regenerated for whatever reason I decided to dig down and I just saw the playermodel sitting a block deep in a lava pool staring at the wall. I got really scared and ran to my parents and started to cry. Moral of the story: If you ever see a black playermodel in your world, go cry to your parents.
the creepiest thing that happned to me was me going back to my house and i think seeing herobrine but then later i came closer and it was a zombie for a second tho i did leave the world
When I was younger, I would play with full fog a lot. My computer could handle a render distance of 12+ but I just really like the deep, oppressive fog. I wanted something strange and creepy to happen to me, but sadly nothing notable popped up. Recently though, my friends and I have been having strange experiences with our multiplayer server. We use Nitrous Networks as a server host, and I'm pretty sure the people who run it mess with their hosted servers every now and then. For example, I was running a server a few years ago in 1.13 when the aquatic update came out. Out of nowhere, a large, red "X" made of red terracotta appeared near the spawn. Under the "X" was a chest full of diamond blocks. The server had only been up for like 2 days, and I was the only one with OP. Maybe someone used a duplication bug or something, but everyone swore they didn't do it. Another event occured more recently. Due to all the talk around Mario 64, my friend and I decided that we wanted to build peach's castle. We finished the foyer on the first day before calling it quits. When we returned, I opened the doors to the first bowser room and, as topical as it was, someone had placed a map painting of the wario apparition right behind the door. I checked the server console and hadn't seen anyone log in since we left. The only explanation I have is that we were being punked by Nitrous Netword admins.
I remember my brother and I used to play PE way back when in old Minecraft, and when we entered the seed "herobrine", if you dug a couple blocks down from spawn you would fall into this huge pit filled with grass (one of those old terrain oddities, it was actually so cool). Dude, Minecraft literally used to be terrifying. I remember at around 2013 I tried building one of those Herobrine summoner things (the gold blocks, redstone, and netherrack, you know what I mean), and for part of the process I put in Disc 11 and it freaked me out so much I popped it out of the jukebox after only like 15 seconds. This other time I went into the Nether and I used to think that Herobrine spawned on the Nether balconies. I don't know if it's because I'm older or what, but modern Minecraft just doesn't have that creepiness factor that old Minecraft does. The block textures in the new updates also make it less scary.
@Manoa Yeah. I remember being scared of Herobrine pretty early and for a pretty good period of time, but Entity303 and Null... meh. Never really bought into them very much. At least, not as much as Herobrine. It's like the roman empire. People try to make new versions and stuff, but it just doesn't have the same feel the original had.
The first time I discovered a forest mansion I felt the strongest sense of unease I have ever felt in Minecraft. Like, whoever designed them did a insanely good job making them so ambiently creepy for no real reason.
20:05 easy explainable, you can summon horse with invulnverable tag making it immortal,and edit its attributes to make it go super fast,then /kill @e[type=horse],game would never make horse invulnerable and then kill it unless you or your friend or someone else would execute the command,so either your friend made a prank,or someone else had permissions to do it.
My creepiest experience with _Minecraft_ is one that I doubt anyone would believe, mainly because it involves a mob that doesn't exist (or at least, there's no records of it existing), but I swear on my life that this happened. I remember the incident vividly in my mind. It was a long, long time ago, when _Minecraft_ was still in a very early version. I don't exactly remember which, but it was during the time before villagers ever made any sounds (I thought the sounds of pressure plates were the sounds that they made, since they kept walking into pressure plates that looked like tables), so it was _extremely_ old. I did live in a village, and this was before I knew beds existed and what they did, so I just spent the nights fighting mobs. One night, I got attacked by a mob that I had never seen before, that being a werewolf. It was huge, with the same sort of physique as an iron golem (only there weren't any iron golems in the village that I lived at, and I had been living there a long time). It had the head of a wolf in its aggressive state, complete with the angry red eyes, and its whole body was brown with a fur texture similar to that of regular wolves. I couldn't tell if it had a wolf tail or not, but this is what it looked like. It made the same noises as a hostile wolf, and it attacked in the same manner as an iron golem (without flinging me up in the air), but it was _really_ fast, like an aggressive enderman. I wasn't able to kill it, and after getting attacked by it, running and hiding in a tree for a while, and then trying to make a run for it, the werewolf caught up to me and killed me. A few days later, I got curious and tried looking online to see if I could find any information about the werewolf mob. I did, oddly enough, and the source that I found (I don't remember what it was, it was so long ago) told about its behavior and all that, but I wanted to know when it spawned. It said that there were only two conditions that it could spawn under; they could spawn naturally during a full moon night cycle (though their spawn rate was very low), or that if lightning struck a wolf, it would turn into a werewolf. But looking online now, there's absolutely no sources anywhere that talk about it, and that's bizarre, because I explicitly remember that there used to be. I never encountered a werewolf again after that incident, so I still don't fully know what had happened. Years and years later, when I was an adult, I told my friend about this whole incident (he's an expert on _Minecraft_ as well). He told me that there's never been any werewolves in _Minecraft_ and that what most likely happened was that I got attacked by an iron golem, and I might've thought it looked different because of it being night time and therefore not as easy to see. But in all the weeks of me living at that village, I never once saw any iron golems, ever. Hell, at the time, I didn't even know iron golems existed, either. So I don't know for sure what that werewolf incident was, but it's never left my mind.
Honestly I'm glad someone else said it. Easily the weirdest part of Minecraft to me was just how the world was blatantly apocalyptic and the player was the only human seemingly left. It kinda reminds me of Finn The Human from Adventure Time.
Another thing I remember about early minecraft is that nighttime came in waves. Like, you could see the blocks around you get darker. That was creepy. For me anyway.
I have a story to share, I was walking back to my house while it was dark no rain no nothing and suddenly i got struck by lighting it caught me off guard yes but I thought nothing of it, must have been just a glitch well when i got home My farms were empty my animals dead, only thing left was a tamed dog but i didnt have ownership of it (I was on a single player world) I figured i could just exit out of the game and then just reload and old save but when i tried it somehow the world just didnt exist anymore and i had a screenshot of my house from the world but that was the only proof i had that the world ever existed
Love this! I would love to see a video like this and your mario 64 video on how dark toned the atmosphere of DK64 is, and how outright unerving Donkey Kong 64 is! The dark atmosphere complimented by its darker/more serious OST, combined with: the haunting angry aztec voice that yells "GET OUT" with a countdown ticking and youll get freakin shot if you dont leave in time, the haunting toy factory that is frantic factory, the ...gloominess of Gloomy Galleon and its implications of DKC2, the Creepy Night time version of Fungi Forest, not to mention the GIANT creepy one eyed purple spider you battle, and last but not least the Creepy Castle world as a whole! A lot of other unerving/very eerie parts in the game as well. Just a recommendation I would love to see if you ever read this!
i created a minecraft server with a website. it didnt get any visitors. i was literally strip mining when i came upon a tunnel. i went up to the surface, and it was a wood and stone hut. not just that, but it had used items and IT WAS GRIEFED. THE BASE WAS BUILT AND GRIEFED. IT WAS LOOTED, TOO. IT HAD A FLAG ON TOP AND A WALL COVERED IN HOLES. this is just crazy
ok so i got one story too. On xmas 2011 i got my first mobile device, i was 7 yo at the moment, i remember that my parents bought me mincecraft from google play, it was the very very early days of minecraft pocket edition, but nvm. I used to love playing it. I was playing for hours and hours in my free time, I had many worlds and very much stuff in them. But somewhere in 2012 i think it was august or september idk, i created a survival world, i played it for a while, and as i remember i've noticed something odd about a day or two after creating this world, chickens from my chicken farm were disappearing, one by one. I thought it was just a weird game bug and i played along. Some days later world was starting to change more and more, blocks were disappearing, ive heard weird noises (i could just misheard, i was 8 years old back then, and it was nearly 9 years ago so i can just remember wrong) passive mobs weren't spawning at all, activity of hostile mobs increased, just like i'd turn the difficulty up. But about a week of playing on this world i just couldn't open it. Game crashed everytime i tried open this world. And thats pretty much it, i think i could say something not right but as i said it was nearly 9 years ago.
the whole igloo situation makes me wonder... what if every thing, every player you could swear you saw in the fog was actually another player? but they just...get as scared as you do and retreated?
I can't think of that many creepy experiences in minecraft I've had. One that I can think of is just finding a random flower in a deep cave and being creeped out incredibly because it was two-high and thus around player height.
Thanks for watching this video, I really love making these types of essays, especially about topics like this. Hope you enjoyed it as much as I did making it!
And if you haven't watched it, go watch my video about why Mario 64 is a disturbing game too: ua-cam.com/video/OV2YTbesy20/v-deo.html
GermanPeter half life
I have more of a sad story for you, but I don't think you want to hear it.
Yo german thanks for putting me in the video. Oh and do half-life 2 that game have be really creepy.
nice content!
btw will you make an q and a?
They really should make a harder more basic version of the interface to make it weirder and more story based
Its more Atmospheric than scary in my opinion like a dream
That's actually a really good way of putting it!
Ok Richtofen
surreal
@@iamveryconfusedabout yeah that too
@@GermanPeter Thanks btw if u like walking simulators u should play a game called Off-Peak its free on steam, and Its only 30 minutes so I'd say that's a good deal
I’ve been saying for years, Minecraft is a kid-friendly horror game.
just like how IT / goosebumps is kid friendly horror movies / tv shows.
Ye both of you are right
@@BobbinRobbin777 how is IT kid friendly lmao
@@canigetayass5912 i was talking about the original (the remake is for adult audiences)
You ain't wrong
How to make a mob scary:
-Don't mention it in the update notes
-Make sure it's a very rare encounter
-Make it a short encounter (short spawn-time)
For instance; imagine if the phantom was added to the game without any mention by the devs, imagine if it was a rare and short encounter. Nothing scares people more than the unknown.
They should do that with Herobrine
The only problem is that dataminers would find it instantly and spoil the fun for everyone
@@Charliereed1106 This is why despite all the shit people give Roblox, THIS is why Roblox is somewhat decent for developing on, it's easy to cover up your code. Sadly the community ruins it.
@William Anderson The Phantom isn't subtle enough to be scary after the first couple encounters.
Cave Update Notes:
-Add new cave generation system
-Add new ores
-Add new items
-Something is in the dark too, but we don't know what is it! Oh well, maybe it's just our imagination
I can see Mojang doing this lol
Minecraft with friends: aha this is so much fun haha
Minecraft alone: *scared noises*
I don’t have any friends ;(
Yeah thats why my base and village has a wall around it. I always want to be in the comfort zone when playing alone
and Herobrine...
scared dog noises
what are friends?
The good old "You cannot sleep now, there are monsters nearby" when there's absolutely nothing within eyeshot is always a good feeling, for just how blunt the wording is. "There IS something nearby that WILL kill you if you let your guard down", says the game with no apparent dangers in the vicinity. Cool, thanks.
That happened to me on a buggy old survival server or world, I don't remember which. I was trying to sleep but the game said "You cannot sleep now, there are monsters nearby"
That message always gives me the creeps
Happens a lot when you have a shallow unlit cave under your base.
yeahh seeing that ALWAYS gets me
I’ve never found it scary, just goddamn annoying, like, “YEAH I KNOW THERES A CREEPER AND SKELETON OUTSIDE, THAT’S WHY I WANT TO SLEEP.”
Playing old Minecraft is horrifying like you’re in a dead persons house the owner has died a long time ago
I wonder what would be creepier.
If the former owner just died recently, or the former onwer died a long time ago and the house was abandoned since
AleNoConstancy that actually sounds epic
SOMEONE MAKE THIS A CREEPYPASTA
@AleNoConstancy OMG I WOULD LOVE TO MAKE A VIDEO ON IT, THATS A GREAT IDEA!
@AleNoConstancy Can I do it!? I will credit your name !
My creepiest Minecraft story is pretty simple:
I was on a private multiplayer server that me and my friends used and still use, though this was a few years back. 1.11.2 had just been released, and after some hard work update from 1.10, we managed to get the server running again. No visible issues. Houses were in their normal spots. Everybody still had everything in their inventory. Tamed animals were all still in their usual spots. Then, it appeared. It was a wolf. It was dark, obviously suffering from a lighting bug. We call it Black Shuck now because of what happened. Right after I died, I respawned next to my bed and looked through my inventory. Yes, we have keepinventory on. Deal with it. Nobody wants to lose their stuff due to an unfair death. Anyway, I had just spawned next to my bed and saw Black Shuck walking around. He looked tamed, but nobody could make him sit. We got one of our friends, the server admin, to log on, and even they couldn't make him sit. We chalked it up to lag or a bug, and then went our separate ways. Thats when I noticed Black Shuck was following me. I couldn't make him sit, yet he followed me like he was my dog. He wouldn't attack any mobs. He would just follow me. Then, Black Shuck teleported when I moved too far away from him, pushed me into a lava pit, and I died. Again. Black Shuck didn't teleport to me. Black Shuck randomly followed my friends one after the other, most of them somehow dying when this glitched wolf was with them. Then, after a week of Black Shuck terrorizing us, I logged in. All of my animals were gone. Cows, sheep, horses, chickens, wolves. Gone. The same with everybody else's farms.
Nobody saw Black Shuck again, though seeing wolves with that same lighting bug still makes me squirm. Apparently, there had been a bug when updating. The admin redid the update, ridding us of Black Shuck.. and seven farms full of animals.
Black Shuck, the Dog of Death.
Reading through the comment section, it just makes me not want to play Minecraft anymore... ~n~
That's fucking terrifying my dude
So we got a ghost horse, a ghost dog, now we just need a ghost cat and a ghost chicken and we got the ghost musicians of Bremen!
Same old Minecraft used to have weird lighting issues with mobs I tamed a black dog because I was going to brag about it to my friend
The dog was black due to a lighting issue when dogs were wet, and he didn't shake off the water due to another bug
The scary/unsettling parts of Minecraft mostly become normal and expected once you've been playing for a third of your life, mainly because you gain an understanding of almost everything in the game and how they function from a technical perspective. This is why when I first tried VR Minecraft, I had to take a break because I was legitimately panicking trying to escape a cave. I knew how the game worked, and I knew that I could easily fight off any mob since it was on easy difficulty, but because of my unfamiliarity with the controls and how immersed I was, I subconsciously lost trust in my abilities. I was genuinely scared of losing my stuff, in the same way I was scared of the strange creature outside my dirt hut 8 years ago.
I miss the feeling of when I was a noob In Minecraft. It was so scarey and fresh.
I think there should be a new game mode even more focused on survival than survival. Harder and less forgiving. Like hardcore, but in ultra hard mode or something. Maybe change the mob ais as well to be better at tracking you down. And just making it a more interesting and challenging scary survival experience. Maybe more fog. Maybe creepers can track you through walls and blow up lazy 1x1 safety huts. This way you will have to build an actually protected base. Maybe have more mobs able to influence blocks like endermen can. Or maybe angry endermen being able to intelligently place blocks or destroy them so mobs can get to you easier. Maybe an actually hard ender dragon that requires gear like netherite and potions to have a chance at beating it.
@@SantanaBanana47 That seems like it could be a good idea, but it would need to be implemented in a way where it's not just harder, but unpredictable. Minecraft seemed scary when we first played it because all we knew about the game was what we had seen in videos. We didn't know what to expect, or how things worked. It would need to somehow recreate the wonder and unsure-ness that we experienced as kids being new to the game.
@@genodedemon5109 ikr first time I played I didn't know wood planks existed so I spent hours making a giant house out of only logs lol
True, it mainly comes from not knowing what to expect and what could be in the game.

Imagine playing multiplayer in the nether still hearing "GRRRRRACH"
The thing that scares me the most is the silence, the loneliness and the darkness. You know how whenever you go spelunking, and the void that isn't lit up, looking at is anxiety inducing; combined with cave sounds, it's straight panic inducing. Who knows what could lie beyond the darkness. Also, I miss void fog because of the extra eerieness it added.
When I was younger, I used to think cave noises meant Herobrine was in my world. So I always deleted those worlds.
Another thing that scared me was the caves, and they still do. They're these big, almost live system that could swallow you hole.
One of the scariest experiences for me is being trapped in the Nether, I had to go very far to find a Nether fortress. And forgot to take the position of my portal, I had no food and was lost. It took me about an hour to stumble across it, from sheer luck.
Wow the first two points are the same with me
I hate getting lost in Minecraft. It gets me mad. 😂 seeing the same dirt patch for the 100th time.
Same with the nether. A ghast broke my portal and I didnt bring a lighter so after an hour of avoiding ghasts and looking for a lighter I decided to dig some trenches near the portal and force the ghasts to shoot me so they could light the portal for me.
This reminds me of the time me my brother and our friend basically discovered fucking time travel in Minecraft when we were younger, we got lost in the nether while in creative fucking around, and we couldn’t find the original portal. So basically we made a bunch of other portals that took us to different locations far away from our base, and eventually we made one that somehow took us to our Minecraft world BEFORE we had destroyed it. (Keep in mind before we went to the nether we had TNT’d our houses because we were bored) it was probably a glitch with the save files but still cool.
@Gold Source "younger me"
Now i realize that maybe herobrine got really famous because maybe a lot of kids didn't have good computers and have to play whit the lowest render distance, having that sensation of being not alone all the time
yeah, lower render distance isnt glitchy or blocky. just really foggy.
lag is the problem of everything
Yeah you are so right. As a kid the fog was always spooky, I always thought something else was there. Not herobrine either. I lived in the country alone too so it just made it worse. Nothing ever happened, but playing alone in the basement in the country home alone was quite terrifying for a 12 year old. I even lit the fireplace as a kid. Just to top off the ambiance. I miss that :/ nostalgic scary memory.
Edit my parents owned the house I just happen to be home alone after school everyday for a few hours. I reread my comment and it made no sense that a 12 year old lived alone.
That is precisely why. Herobrine definitely wouldn't have become so well known with the modern render engine Minecraft has now

Personal theory:
Zombies are you. Like, they are players who died, their bodies at least. You are the only human there and when you respawn your body, the dead one, spawns as another zombie while your soul gets new body and awakes in bed. And the buildings and structures are made by your alternate self, ones that fulfiled the game aka beat ender dragon or died in hardcore/deleted their worlds. You build it and all is cyclical
Weird theory, MatPat made one like this: minecraft had a civilization, but they got too weak because of the wither, they din' know how to defeat it, the ones in the overworld died due to hunger or the Wither, turning into zombies and skeletons, some of them ran into the nether, also got killed by mobs, and turned into Wither skeletons, some ran to the End, they built everything there, and the dragon din't attack them, but they weren't able to come back, soon their materials and food were gone, BUT! There was Chorus Fruit, they ate only it for years and turned into Endermans. And *you* were created by the Pillagers

@@marley7776 It said
"Other players dreamed of having a stick powered by demons" but I'll read them again
@@marley7776 ua-cam.com/video/j0JdZSvyfDk/v-deo.html ho at 1:13 and read.
what stick does he mean? blaze rods?
The way those entities talk is also very similar to one of the original Herobrine creepypastas. Most notably the focus on how you need to "wake up"
The context is that the entities are talking about witches riding brooms. The 'stick powered by demons' is a magic broomstick because old interpretations of witches were women who had made pacts with demons.
Honestly, the whole game just makes me feel uneasy and when I'm playing, especially in singleplayer, I feel really creeped out. I think it might come from the fact that if I were to die in a really unfortunate way, my items may be lost forever, or that my house and very expensive items may be destroyed by a wayward creeper that I simply did not pay attention to. The surreal ambience of the game, strange noises, hostile environment, and melancholy music tracks really blend together to make an atmosphere of strange uneasiness in a game that by all means is kid-friendly and not meant to be scary.
I found that the simpler graphics of the game have a lot to do with it as well, when playing with shaders, a lot of that vanilla creepiness is lost, meanwhile when I bump down the graphics settings to the minimum, (especially render distance) the uneasy atmosphere heightens. It gets even creepier if you go below vanilla minimum using optifine.
@Terminator Playz Lol that's basically what I said in my long ass post, way to be succinct
@@qwargly is most scary to not play minecraft because of too much lag
@@qwargly Oddly enough, even with shaders, it's still creepy for me. Actually, in all honesty, it's probably because the effects are cool but it can be visually harder to see stuff depending on where you're at. for example, the shadows are much better/darker than vanilla, so if there's a roofed forest nearby where enemies can spawn or something, it's much harder to see than in vanilla. Also, it makes the world feel more real and immerses me more, so the fact that there are no friends with me is a bit more unsettling to me. makes me feel like I'm *actually* alone.
@@qwargly

I remember I was playing on a single player word one time, building a haunted mansion. I finished building it, and stood back to admire it. Suddenly, I heard footsteps running towards me. There was nothing that could possibly move nearby. Then they just stopped, and I was left there in silence. I got freaked out and left the mansion, hesitant to go back to it again.
probably it was lag, then you heard you own footsteps come to the spot you were, but still a nice story
probably wood, wood makes this noise that sounds like footsteps creaking, it may sound like MC normal footsteps. Happened to me. Took a while to figure it out.
Ghost was just excited that he had a house to haunt, he was just going to give you a hug as a thank you.
I will give you explanation when something scary happen in Minecraft:
If you hear foot steps in your home and there no someone or your pet,
you need carefull because maybe there is a Creeper or other monster.
If you heard cave noise in your home,that mean you life in top of a cave.
If you hearing footsteps and you not walking and there no mob,that mean you lag or your Minecraft have bug.
If you see mob spawn in your house,you need put more light like a torch.
that is my explanation and i am a Minecraft veterans.
i think that could have been a mob, have had that happen to me before !
This is why i set up base next to a village 95% of the time. It just feels more lively, less lonely and, with the rework to how villagers work, you feel very involved in their lives and responsible for their prosperity. At least that's what i think.
*kidnap them*
Just make sure zombies won't eat them
I did that once. After a few days, the villagers started to go missing, with no apparent cause. I had set up iron golems around the village, and whenever I visited them, the golems were always in pristine condition. Eventually it was just one cleric, who actually came to my house and started living there. I don't know why or how it could have happened, but it is a strangely interesting story.
Bro I have a problem with that, they always end up getting killed one way or another, I had a whole place dwindle to nothing. So now I just avoid villages like I bring bad luck or something.
Imagine how horrifying it would be if you turn around sometime
And than you see your skin in the distance, with NO gamertag.
He would have his back facing you so you cant identify it, and
Once you see him, than cave noises play.
That would be the best horror experience.

Ill go creative mode quickly and blow the entire world up and spawn as many mobs as i can
I agree with the whole "Early Minecraft Was Scarier" thing. It gave off some sort of negative aura.
ive played plenty of horror games but minecraft (especially earlier versions) is genuinely the scariest game ive ever played, and it isnt even a horror game
its crazy how early minecraft set up that survival atmosphere and managed to be so scary
@@yourehereforthatarentyou kinda like Subnautica, its not a horror game. But its scary at some times
Both that early sense of being fragile in the game as well as it being smaller and the updates given less fanfare probably made it feel more mysterious and unpredictable, I think. Even if you get how Minecraft works, none of that matters in the early days because it just didn't exist.
@e No pictures of Spain in the skybox
That’s why y like caves and cliffs update, to feel the same emotions as 2013 (in my case)
My creepy experience is actually recent.
I call them lost mobs
On the server i play on there’s been a recent glitch where there would be these hostile mobs that would “spawn” in.
I say spawn in quotations because they aren’t really there.
They don’t interact with players and nothing can attack them.
You can’t build on top of them.
They won’t move
All they do is sit on the same block and stare off into the distance.
Sometimes they’re only there for a couple seconds other times it’s hours.
The lost mobs wouldn’t be too creepy if it weren’t for the fact that they tend to happen in groups and sometimes one of the group members isn’t as lost as you thought.
i think that happened to me once, it seems to be because of server lag.
it only happens on servers, so that is the most likely story.
@AleNoConstancy dont you just mean your cat or dog just staring at a wall
Something else happend to me, When I was younger I didn’t have a pc so I would play the Xbox 360 version of Minecraft, One day I decided to make my own survival world. This survival world was a mountain biome. I searched for hours but couldn’t find any other biomes. I walked and I found red stone torches placed down and I freaked out and turned off my xbox thinking it was hero brine. Skip forward a couple years when I actually gotten a pc, the pc sucked but it could still run Minecraft with a render distance of 2. One day I heard a weird noise in my room. I went to go see but nothing was there. I came back to my pc to find a zombie and basically just standing there with no ai. I tried killing them but it didn’t work. I assumed lag and waited for a couple minutes but they still wouldn’t move at all.
Omg that happened to me too!!! I was playing Creative in a superflat Peaceful world and I was chilling in a village. A baby zombie suddenly appeared, staring at the fence and not moving. It was there for DAYS (IRL DAYS IM NOT KIDDING). I would turn on Hard mode, go back to peaceful, and nothing! It was just there. What scared me even more was when I went into Spectator mode, I was able to click on it and spectate it. It was terrifying. It appeared out of nowhere when it shouldnt have been possible, just stayed there for days, and couldnt be affected in any way AT ALL. I put some fences around it just in case it randomly moved, but nothing. Then, after like, an IRL week of it being there, it vanished. Freakin' Cotton-Eye Joe'd me. Where did it come from? Where did it go? Where did it come from, Cotton-Eye Joe?

The “Player Apparition” bit reminded me of one of the wildest things I’ve ever witnessed in all of my eight years of playing Minecraft.
Long ago, my siblings and I were celebrating my best friend’s birthday party over at his house. We both had Minecraft Xbox360 Edition, and wanted to do a Hunger Games - LAN party thing in a small map we built. My Xbox was in the living room, hosting my brother, sister, and myself; my friend’s Xbox was in his family room, hosting him and his sister. His crummy internet is totally to blame for what happens, but this seriously blew our minds.
The game was underway, going about as well as one could expect from a bunch of middle schoolers facing off against one another. I ran down an alleyway and then turned out into a street, chasing my brother and letting a few arrows fly after him. I missed all my shots, and the game went on. A little later, I was up on top of the city’s tall water tower, trying to snipe when I get pushed off to my demise.
Having been slain, and therefore out of the game, I headed over to the other room to watch my friend and his sister play. It was down to the last two people: my brother, and my friend’s sister. She was running on the street that my brother and I were on earlier - going the opposite direction he was - when it happened. Much to our surprise, I came out of the alley and fired some arrows just as I did towards my brother, KILLING MY FRIEND’S SISTER. I still had my controller with me, but wasn’t using it; plus, when I checked my screen I was still in the spawn area we built. How this anomaly of internet shenanigans happened is still confusing to this day.
Terribly bad and outdated issues that appeared to cause a weird mixmatch of stuff

Me and my cousin had a server. It was a small, cheap server just for two of us. it was set to allow non premium players. One day some guy started joining it. His name was "Sheep". He started placing armor stands in full white leather armor and sheep heads around the world. I tried banning them, setting up whitelist, restricting gamemodes and sheep kept appearing. It stopped after about 2 weeks.
We actually made him into kind of a deity of the server.
Could it have been the server host?
There are obscure hack called force whitelist and even force mod. That would explain how he got sheep heads

Okay since everyone is sharing their spoopy minecraft stories I got one for ya. So I used to play minecraft pocket edition ALOT before it was updated to be morn in line with modern versions of the game. I had I world that was roughly 2 to 3 years old and this was before infinite worlds were added to pocket edition so I had a pretty good idea of where everything was and had most things safe and protected. So one day I was just playing the game working my mansion and my creeper pixel art but it just felt so off, there was slightly more mobs than usual despite the only place they could spawn was underground or in my janky primitive mob farm. On top of that I had an iron door that was closed with button to open it to get into my mine but the door was open. By all means that shouldn't of happened but I chocked it up too a bug or me messing it up somehow. So I went into my mine and got like 13 diamonds or so then ended up falling lava because I got shot by a skeleton. And as I usually do when I die...i rage quit and went to bed for the night. And i had a dream I was playing the game and working on my mansion I walked over to a chest outside to grab more wood and turned around to see it burning to the ground, and for some reason I started running towards the mine with the open door from earlier and shut myself inside. Then looked out the window and saw all the cows staring at me as a figure that looks like the player model but all black break the door and walk in. The dream ended there but the next day I did get back on the game and the mansion did burn down due to me screwing up the fire place. It was simply the most odd and unexplained thing that ever happened to me and I don't have the world anymore sadly but it had this aura to it after that and made just not wanna play on it.

I remember back in beta on a singleplayer world (the famous "glacier" seed), I had made one of those Herobrine "spawners" for fun as a little monument. The one with the gold blocks, redstone torches, mossy cobble and burning Netherrack. I built it because I found the creepypasta amusing and obviously didn't believe in it, hell, Notch himself confirmed it was fake. It was near my house in a place of honor.
Anyways, one day I had just put the finishing touches on a suspension bridge I was really proud of over the big lake between some of the seed's famous mountains. On one side, I had a tunnel leading to my house. On the other side, I was planning to excavate a 5x5 tunnel with a rounded top all the way through the mountain and have a staircase down into the forest. I had just finished the bridge itself, and left the tunneling for tomorrow since it was getting late on a school night.
The next day, after finishing homework, I logged on and opened my world. I made some tools to get ready for digging, and walked out of my house. Almost immediately, I noticed that the flame on the "spawner" had gone out. Every Minecrafter should know this, but if you don't, Netherrack burns forever if you light it on fire. It won't fizzle out on its own. Sorta eerie, but probably just a bug. Then I walked over my new suspension bridge, and...there was already a 2x2 tunnel, dug about a third of the way through the mountain. I had NO memory of digging that. The only thing that could have happened was perhaps I was incredibly sleepy and dug a little bit of the way before giving up, thus not remembering it? But I DO specifically remember logging off for the school night without digging. My brother also likes Minecraft, but he hadn't gotten into it yet. It would be like 4 more months before he considered trying the game, at the time he couldn't give a rat's ass about my world.
In all likelihood, there's probably a combination of bugs or some kind of explanation to account for these events. While I know in my heart that Herobrine isn't real, I'd certainly like to believe he could be. But when I was younger, that certainly creeped the hell out of me and I didn't play that world for like a week. Good times...

I was organizing my chests outside my house when I caught a glimpse of an Enderman looking directly at me when I closed the chest and ran to kill it. As I ran towards him, and he just kept looking at me when at the last second he ran away and I didn't come where he went. I thought it was strange since endermans don't like it when they are faced, but this one was making a point of facing me. The point is that this kept happening, I saw him watching me from a distance, I ran to kill him and he escaped from my sight, it was as if he was studying me waiting for the right moment to attack me. There was a place where I almost always saw him, a cave near my house so I decided to check this place out. To my surprise he was there however ... with three pillagers, when they noticed me Enderman went deeper into the cave leaving me alone to fight with them.
It was like he hired killers after me or that the mobs were up to me...
As I saw Endermans react and or stay still if you directly look at them into the eyes
Lowering your sight as soon as you see them makes them spawn and try to attack you.
Its something I recetly viewed in some videos I think from Antvenom if I remember.
They try to often teleport away when you attack them especially when trying to hit their body.
But its quite interesting how all of this worked out! :o

I could still access chat however, and the other guy playing at the time thought I was pulling a prank on him.

Kinda late on this video but here's my creepiest Minecraft story:
Back on my old Xbox 360 I was on the old TU11 tutorial world using creative mode by myself making basic things like a sky house made out of diamonds and pixel art. I wanted to make some weird building where mobs can have a "party" so I made a glass square house and added simple things like water for a pool and a music box for CDs. Everything went fine I added some zombies and skeletons and left to build something else far off in the distance (I think it was a roller coaster or a fun house) after maybe an hour later I checked on the mob party house and half of it was destroyed and the mobs were nowhere to be found I got freaked out and being 11 still believing in Herobrine I quickly closed the world and deleted it.
1. If the Mob party was made with glass they could still burn in daylight
2. The chunks in xbox are glitched, if you get too far from a mob he dissapears

I had left the map without having any iron since I assumed I would play shortly thereafter but I legitimately built a labyrinth and couldn't find my way out and with the last bit of food running out and still running in circles I was legitimately afraid and lost.
Since then I make central tunnels to mines with them being 4×4 tunnel with offshoots being 3×4 and the mine being entirely grid based.
The labyrinth I built scared me more than any maze based horror games I've ever played.

i had the same experience. about 6 years ago i made the same thing, being on bedrock level and making tunnels like you did. And when i wanted to return to my home i didnt make it (sorry for bad english)
That reminds me of that video recovered from a camera found in the Paris Catacombs...
Back many years ago I had this Minecraft world on Pocket Edition (this was way before the nether or infinite worlds were a thing on pocket edition).
I played on this world pretty much every day, often with my brother and/or step-brother. The world was for the most part very ordinary, not many weird things happened, well at least until one evening.
A big hole just appeared outside my home (similar to an explosion) with a sign at the bottom of it. I don’t recall exactly what the sign said, but I think it was very akin to a “Oooh I’m gonna get you” threat. The text also had a couple of curse words on it which really caught me be surprise since I was so young. Almost all the animals in my world disappeared at the same time as well.
I still think about it from time to time. Like, what really happened? The most logical explanation would have to be that the mobs just glitched and despawned. As for the hole and sign, I guess it could’ve been my brother maybe, though he is a very nice guy so I don’t understand why he would scare me like that, especially since he has never been that kind of person to scare people.
One time, i was in the neather. I was playing on a laptop, so sadly the baterry died when i was in the neather. When i loaded the world back up, i spawned on the deafault spawn location. My house was deleted. I was at first sad but then i thought i coupd regather the diamonds that i found earlier. I walked into the cave i usually mined in. Then, i saw my mineshaft. The one i went down to look for diamonds in. My house was deleted, but my mine wasnt. This was probably my weirdest minecraft experience.
Sometimes when minecraft is saving things, and it crashes or your computer shuts down, it will revert the chunks being svaed currently to the original state, but if your Mineshaft wasn't being saved, it stayed.
@@JamesnLollify good explanation
I recognize that horse. It freaked me the fuck out when it started moving around like that. My friend Aaron wanted to get his skeleton horse back after he tried to solve the lag crisis by killing all of the turtles with a command but ended up killing every mob except the turtles because of a typo. He started experimenting with the values of his horse that he was spawning and tested out increasing the speed value by an absurd amount. We found the maximum speed we could set it to before it got so fast that it would go out of bounds and teleport back where it started, and after many iterations it became invincible too. By that time that iteration of the horse was pure white and we named it ness horse in zalgo text as a joke that Aaron's previous skeleton horse was called Sans horse. It was so powerful that it could often kill its rider with fall damage, and instead of walking around idly without a rider it would teleport. We dug a pit and put it in, and over time it lost it's name tag and became known as 'the bastard'. at the end of the server's life, someone broke it out of it's prison but died trying to ride it, near a river so far away no one ever found it again. Then we stopped playing on the server, except one person who kept it as a single player world. Before you say it's the same horse, that's impossible as Peter said his encounter happened in 2018 while ness horse was created in 2019. I do know however that his horse must have been the result of a command (the command ended up being so long the horse just spawned tamed and with a saddle)
Since I first played the game eight years ago I've had this backstory in my head, where multiplayer servers are an echo of the past, showing civilized life before and sometimes during its slow, dreadful decay into what we know as singleplayer, where Steve is the only remaining survivors of the human race.
that would be a nice plot for a movie
I weird idea, very similar. Each update is chronologically going back in the game's time. When you set the updates in that order, it shows the decay of a once vibrant world, until nothing is left but grass and the player.
Octa Khan then there are running, dancing Steve’s and they all disappear
cool theory, bro.
also great username.
Me and my friend actually have two “haunted” armor stands in our world. They twitch and change poses all by themselves, and tilting slightly. The creepiest thing was they would only twitch when only I was looking. When I friend would watch them, they would stay completely still. We even made a dark basement area for the fist one we had, and loud cave noises would play whenever we were close to him, and even if we were about to enter the basement. Honestly, it’s the scariest thing I’ve ever seen in Minecraft.
For real tho i think you had Redstone around or you just accidentally clicked at it because if you right click or something at the armor stand that happens
@@account-xw9wv that is only the case on minecraft bedrock edition, so if they were playing on that, it would be the case.
I had cursed stands too. I was coming to my house and stand changed poses, I was young and i was on singleplayer, one time i came home stand was... GONE, it scared the #### out of me.
Off topic but your PFP is adorable
@Rusting Fungi there was never a mummy mob in minecraft unless you add mods might've been a husk or a dream idk
Back on a server called “Green.EpicMine.Time” there was this time where I was just standing in my base and a really loud noise happened and scared me. I’m pretty sure it was the admins playing with plugins and they probably played the dragon death noise but I thought it was this thing called the “Ender Giant”. I thought that because there was this animation of the same name and it scared me.
Great video man, I’m loving these new kinds of videos.
Weirdly enough, about a year ago something similar actually happened to me twice on a bedrock edition survival world. I was casually chilling inside my house which I built in a village, all of sudden I hear a very loud ender dragon scream/roaring out of nowhere, this still creeps me out.
My theory on why the horses died: You hit the ghost horse multiple times. It possibly couldnt figure out which horse was getting hit, and just distributed the damage equally across all horses. I think I saw a bit of a knockback effect when the horses died, so that further supports the theory
also the constant falls probably increased that number even more

Here's my weird Minecraft story:
I was playing on my multiplayer world (split-screen on bedrock) with some of my friends. The day before we had been exploring the end, and when one of my friends exited the portal, he was in the credits sequence. While that was happening I closed the world (Save and Quit). Then the next day I logged on and my friend who was in the credits was immediately thrown into the void, and the other one was back at the world spawn, without anything, even though he had quit before I had quit (in bedrock split-screen if player one, in this case me, quits everyone else does too). Then, the time after-next the second friend randomly got his stuff back, lost what he had gained the day before, and was teleported back to his bed where he should have been in the first place.
As if it was all a dream...
A good friend of mine let me use her Minecraft account back when playing in a browser was still a thing a bit before 1.5 came out I believe.
I was obsessed like most kids my age so I knew most all of the basics of the game. I loaded into my first word explored for a bit and decided to build my house in an open area within a cave.
The house was small only really a cobble stone wall enclosed by naturally generated cave the room itself was only 2 blocks wide and maybe 4 or 5 long and the roof was as high as the cave, maybe 5 or 6 tall and all capped of with an iron door and two stone buttons.
The room had a bed, crafting table and was lit with a furnace.
The furnace went out just as I went to sleep when I awoke on the other end of my room just in front of the door there was two glowing purple eyes, an enderman, well I did know what it was that didn’t stop it from scarring 10 year old me. What I did not know however is that endermen don’t like being looked at, and it attack me. terrified I scrambled for the door only to not be able to press the button under pressure and being attacked. Needless to say it killed me.
To this day I can’t look at endermen in-game without feeling instantly sick. Luckily for me that noise they make wasn’t in the game until 1.5 because if I heard that I bet I would’ve never been able to play that game again.
That sounds like such a traumatising experience for a kid holy shit
The feeling of loneliness when exploring caves are the horrors of this game
scary story: I dug straight down
OH MY GOD NOOOOOOOOOOO!
you just gave me nightmares...
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
Scary story : i sleep in nether and somehow it's working
Dude why scare me like that
I don't remember the crepy stories when I was playing Minecraft. Instead when I was really young I was scared so much by water. I was skipping every water biomes and rivers just to not see that blue textures ( that simulating you are underwater ) to pop on my screen. Also water biomes, I was really afraid how deep they are, what is there, when I was spawning in the middle of the ocean I was deleting world and create new one and so on.
Yeah,the old ocean was just so....empty. reminds me of a mobile game called "Block City Wars" its ocean was just empty as hell
@@randallmokjialung3592 lol yea
@@AK47srear-fc5nn thallasophobia
The ocean is kinda scary in every game to me, actually even in real life. The feeling of not knowing what's down there since there could be anything that we don't even know existed in a place where our bodies are at a complete disadvantage, that's kinda terrifying to me
Fortunately for you they've since changed how the game renders when you're underwater. I think I can understand you though, for some reason the old, barren oceans were really creepy. Don't get me wrong the lush new oceans we have now are also creepy in their own right (It is theorized that many people before you have died in the ocean in the game's lore, so when you go diving you're technically visiting a mass grave)
A year or so ago I was playing singleplayer on a hardcore world when a creeper came along and blew up next to me. I survived but the bird on my shoulder did not. Its death message showed up in chat and it was the only bird I had. I was sad and angry so that night I went on a spree killing only creepers that spawned. When I returned to my house, who else but my bird was sitting on the ground next to the hole the creeper made. No idea how it came back after 100% dying, and this was not on a modded world.
Plot twist: you just went insane after watching your only friend in this cruel world die.
@@dasmodem887 It wasn't modded
@@dasmodem887 Parrots are found in the jungle and can be tamed with seeds. They've been out since 2017

I think tamed animals can sometimes glitch like that. The exact same thing happened to me and also in one minecraft single player let's play I watched. In the let's play, the youtuber tamed a dog, it then died to a skeleton rather quickly. Then, like 5 episodes later, the dog just randomly teleported to him out of nowhere. And from my personal experience, my cat died in a nuclear reactor explosion while I was playing moded minecraft. When I went to fix the giant hole after the explosion, my cat was just sitting there, like nothing ever happened.

hey peter i got something scary
every update has a "-removed herobrine" line except for the new update
OH FU-
I was hella scared when I came across my first mineshaft. I thought someone played on my world and created it
When I was 3 to age 6 I played with no sound because the cave sounds scared the heck out of me.
This sounds... weirdly familiar to me but I don't know why. Maybe I used to do the same thing and just don't remember it?
I used to put the game on pause and walk to my mum and hug her everytime I heard the cavenoises.
I play without em to this day lol
9 year old me couldn't play for a week when I first heard them, I'm 16 now and I been playing a whole decade now and cave noises still scare me. Just not as much anymore
I tried playng with no Sound
After i died 3 times because i didnt hear the creeper coming i Put the sound back
Anyone else feel like the smelter active sound is kinda scary when everything else in the cave is really quiet?
I think water flowing sounds a bit scarier in an alone cave
@@viiikalendasjulii4649 for me almost everything is scary when alone in a cave
One time, I was playing my creative MC world, I was decorating a house and was adding some animals as pets. Immediately, all of the animals I placed ran off towards a crafting table in the corner of the room. And one by one, as they jumped onto the crafting table all of them died. One of them which I named (Fluffy) also jumped on and it said in chat “Fluffy hit the ground too hard”
Mobs in creative mode seem to just have suicidal ai
What the fuck. I have never had any of this kinda stuff happen to me. I almost want something off to happen but I guess im not lucky.
I think it is from cramming but I think it was a bug about the deaths. I don’t know about the whole running to the ct thing though
jumped?
once I got scared of ARMOR STANDS because they were an entity, I thought they had their own AI and would do something creepy
Shit reminds me of mannequins in Skyrim.
1:40 that one sound at the very start, that has so much impact to me. I hope other people watched The Haunting or something, I forgot what it was called. The Minecraft videos, I always loved them. This cave sound played in them.
Man, I miss those videos. I should watch them again. It's been 5 years, I think.
Back when i was new to minecraft in general, i kept seeing endermen.
Anytime i started a new world, there would be 1-3 near me. It really didn't matter if it was night or day, several would show up and they wouldn't really go away.
Even on public servers.
I wasn't just seeing a pattern that wasnt there, it was CONSTANT. I, a very fearful and paranoid child, decided that I would just try to leave them be. I didn't kill any of them, to the point that I'd leave cheats on specifically to give myself ender pearls.
This started years ago. From the first survival world i ever spawned in.
It still happens.
I've gotten used to seeing them.
I've learned endermen's quirks, don't hurt them as a rule, hear them nearby when mining, and in a weird way? I kinda feel safe with them.
The tension of their presence has never stopped, but some part of my brain has started labeling them as 'other people'. Weird, tall, extremely disrespectful to public property and slightly murderous people, but they make the world feel a bit less lonely.
I have no idea if this is normal for anyone else, but hey, it's normal for me!!!
That's actually really cool
I have something a bit like this, when im mining i would hear random endermen sounds for no reason, didn't know why. I kept looking around to try and kill them for ender pearls, but couldn't find them.
Once an enderman I looked at (mid day too) just vanished, I logged off then back on days later and he ambushed me outside my door. He could have come into my house, there was space, but no, he waited for me to go outside, across play sessions.
Mustard Bastard that's called an Epic Gamer Move
I've been loved to hunt those black tall bois (endermens) because it's soo fun to collect their ender pearls and grass blocks their carrying and you guys had endermens spawn mostly while mine hides from me :/
I can attest to those multiplayer apparitions. When me and my friend were like 12 we were playing and he was lagging really badly, leaving behind creepy ghosts of himself.
honestly, from my memory, the only times ive ever been scared in minecraft were mobs sneaking up on me.
also this creeper just dropped from the roof of a cave on a server and blew up almost instantly (i think, it may be a case of my brain remembering it as "creeper fall, scream like a bitch, dead")
The thing about herobrine is that it was possible for him to exist on a technical level, not even in updates but right here and now (as a in game content / glitch). Not only update logs included him, and most of mentioned glitches were possible. im pretty sure that mob looking like a steve existed, and white eyes could be result of fog / glitch, not to mention weird steve like face in disc spectogram. And yes, all of those things are separate, but it was hard to not connect them.
I've seen the white eyes bug happen in an old video, there were several pigs with white eyes but as the person didn't say anything about it, I think it wasn't a troll or they trying to scare people
I wish that other players could not see your phantoms. It would make them so much scarier. Especially since that means only you would be able to fight them.
Can we take a moment to talk about how the world forgot about Herobrine, even on his 10th anniversary that happened 1.5 weeks ago?
We never forgot him to this day my friend! ^^
I remember playing on a now defunct minecraft server called wizard craft, no one played on it so i just roamed, out of nowhere i got TPed to some random "player" named F_Herobrine, i got killed and got teleported to where i died, there was a grave with my username at the time Ianbry on it and a chest under it with my stuff, i grabbed it absolutly terrified and then i got TPed into a 1 block wide 2 block tall cave system thing, and i got killed again. it freaked me out so much i ran out of the garage (thats where the PC was) and played little bit planet on my ps3 to calm me down
Just sounds like a admin was messing around and saw you on,
yeah maybe, only thing is in the multiplayer menu it says 0 out of (whatever the max was, i forgot)
KirbySmasher48 48 Many servers have a plugin that lets admins use a command to become invisible and hide that they're online.

Wait Peter is starting to upload more? THE ANCIENT TEXT WAS TRUE ALL ALONG!
*i bet there is gonna be a hundred comments of the cave noises.*
Freakiest thing that ever happened to me was when I was playing with the RLCraft modpack on peaceful. I had tamed a horse so that I could get around quicker. Eventually, after finding a place to settle down, I went out on the horse to find a village so I can grab some food (I also had the Hunger In Peace mod installed). After stopping and dismounting my horse near a village, I went to go grab some beetroot and whatnot. When I turned around, my horse was just... gone. I tried looking around for it, but couldn't find it. I knew it couldn't have despawned, as I wasn't off the horse for long and I stayed within the same general area. Eventually, I just went to sleep in the village, and when I woke up, the horse was back in the general area of where I initially dismounted. It was when I left the village and went back home that I realized that it was probably just the game freaking out for some reason, seeing as the horse vanished right before my eyes when I dismounted.
That bug was happened to pewdiepie too
The cave update is gonna make caves 100% more scarier
Bro I love vids where people just talk about minecraft as opposed to let's plays

EDIT:
Also, a notable story, herobrine scared me so much that I once got up in the middle of the night as like a small child to investigate a noise and hid in my parent's laundry room because I didn't have the balls to go back because of herobrine. My mom found me a few hours later doing something idk it was like 11 pm but it felt like DAYS
Well I remember when I was playing minecraft on my old xbox 360 messing around with like putting lava and setting things on fire since I was young. Then in the distance I saw a zombie running and jumping like a player in day time. This startled me since I have never seen a zombie run and jump like a player. It seemed to keep running in one direction till it got to a cave. It was as if it was leading me there. The worst thing is that it was single player... But it could be my imagination since when you're young imagination is very powerful. Thank you for listening.
My Creepiest Minecraft Moment:
I had just started a brand new creative world and had built a house that I really liked, and keep in mind i was like 8 so the house was actually really bad. Anyways I decided to build a roller coaster and while building it i noticed a completely black playermodel almost out of my render distance, but I ignored it and continued building. Then when i finished the roller coaster i rode a couple times and went to my house to skip the night. When I woke up again I saw a black playermodel nearly outside of my render distance this time looking at me, then I got creeped out and went to my friend's house and we played Minecraft on his PS4 for a bit. When I got home I logged on and those chunks I saw the black playermodel in had been deleted, completely gone. So, I just kept building me being a stupid 8 year old thought building traps would help, so I did and satisfied I was gonna beat "Herobrine" I went to bed. The next day I woke up and logged into my world and the chunks my house were in had been deleted. So I stopped playing on that world for a while. About 2 months later I decided to go back to that world and one of the chunks my house was in had regenerated for whatever reason I decided to dig down and I just saw the playermodel sitting a block deep in a lava pool staring at the wall. I got really scared and ran to my parents and started to cry.
Moral of the story: If you ever see a black playermodel in your world, go cry to your parents.
There was another guy in the comments talking about a black playermodel......

When I was younger, I would play with full fog a lot. My computer could handle a render distance of 12+ but I just really like the deep, oppressive fog. I wanted something strange and creepy to happen to me, but sadly nothing notable popped up. Recently though, my friends and I have been having strange experiences with our multiplayer server. We use Nitrous Networks as a server host, and I'm pretty sure the people who run it mess with their hosted servers every now and then.
For example, I was running a server a few years ago in 1.13 when the aquatic update came out. Out of nowhere, a large, red "X" made of red terracotta appeared near the spawn. Under the "X" was a chest full of diamond blocks. The server had only been up for like 2 days, and I was the only one with OP. Maybe someone used a duplication bug or something, but everyone swore they didn't do it.
Another event occured more recently. Due to all the talk around Mario 64, my friend and I decided that we wanted to build peach's castle. We finished the foyer on the first day before calling it quits. When we returned, I opened the doors to the first bowser room and, as topical as it was, someone had placed a map painting of the wario apparition right behind the door. I checked the server console and hadn't seen anyone log in since we left. The only explanation I have is that we were being punked by Nitrous Netword admins.
I remember my brother and I used to play PE way back when in old Minecraft, and when we entered the seed "herobrine", if you dug a couple blocks down from spawn you would fall into this huge pit filled with grass (one of those old terrain oddities, it was actually so cool).
Dude, Minecraft literally used to be terrifying. I remember at around 2013 I tried building one of those Herobrine summoner things (the gold blocks, redstone, and netherrack, you know what I mean), and for part of the process I put in Disc 11 and it freaked me out so much I popped it out of the jukebox after only like 15 seconds. This other time I went into the Nether and I used to think that Herobrine spawned on the Nether balconies.
I don't know if it's because I'm older or what, but modern Minecraft just doesn't have that creepiness factor that old Minecraft does. The block textures in the new updates also make it less scary.
people be remembering Herobrine but no one's talking about Entity303 nor Null.
Reminds me of a trolling video where the kid was talking about entity 303 but the troll was like "Mr. Titty!?"
I remember it!
IM glad and I want to know more of them infact!
maybe cuz they ripped off the herobrine creepy pasta
@scat oh!, my country have this kind of youtubers too, but in this case, was with Lick and his damn cross XD
@Manoa Yeah. I remember being scared of Herobrine pretty early and for a pretty good period of time, but Entity303 and Null... meh. Never really bought into them very much. At least, not as much as Herobrine.
It's like the roman empire. People try to make new versions and stuff, but it just doesn't have the same feel the original had.
I THOUGHT I WAS THE ONLY ONE SEEING WEIRD SHADOWS OFF THE CORNER OF MY EYE
The first time I discovered a forest mansion I felt the strongest sense of unease I have ever felt in Minecraft. Like, whoever designed them did a insanely good job making them so ambiently creepy for no real reason.
20:05 easy explainable, you can summon horse with invulnverable tag making it immortal,and edit its attributes to make it go super fast,then /kill @e[type=horse],game would never make horse invulnerable and then kill it unless you or your friend or someone else would execute the command,so either your friend made a prank,or someone else had permissions to do it.
My creepiest experience with _Minecraft_ is one that I doubt anyone would believe, mainly because it involves a mob that doesn't exist (or at least, there's no records of it existing), but I swear on my life that this happened. I remember the incident vividly in my mind.
It was a long, long time ago, when _Minecraft_ was still in a very early version. I don't exactly remember which, but it was during the time before villagers ever made any sounds (I thought the sounds of pressure plates were the sounds that they made, since they kept walking into pressure plates that looked like tables), so it was _extremely_ old. I did live in a village, and this was before I knew beds existed and what they did, so I just spent the nights fighting mobs.
One night, I got attacked by a mob that I had never seen before, that being a werewolf. It was huge, with the same sort of physique as an iron golem (only there weren't any iron golems in the village that I lived at, and I had been living there a long time). It had the head of a wolf in its aggressive state, complete with the angry red eyes, and its whole body was brown with a fur texture similar to that of regular wolves. I couldn't tell if it had a wolf tail or not, but this is what it looked like. It made the same noises as a hostile wolf, and it attacked in the same manner as an iron golem (without flinging me up in the air), but it was _really_ fast, like an aggressive enderman. I wasn't able to kill it, and after getting attacked by it, running and hiding in a tree for a while, and then trying to make a run for it, the werewolf caught up to me and killed me.
A few days later, I got curious and tried looking online to see if I could find any information about the werewolf mob. I did, oddly enough, and the source that I found (I don't remember what it was, it was so long ago) told about its behavior and all that, but I wanted to know when it spawned. It said that there were only two conditions that it could spawn under; they could spawn naturally during a full moon night cycle (though their spawn rate was very low), or that if lightning struck a wolf, it would turn into a werewolf. But looking online now, there's absolutely no sources anywhere that talk about it, and that's bizarre, because I explicitly remember that there used to be.
I never encountered a werewolf again after that incident, so I still don't fully know what had happened. Years and years later, when I was an adult, I told my friend about this whole incident (he's an expert on _Minecraft_ as well). He told me that there's never been any werewolves in _Minecraft_ and that what most likely happened was that I got attacked by an iron golem, and I might've thought it looked different because of it being night time and therefore not as easy to see. But in all the weeks of me living at that village, I never once saw any iron golems, ever. Hell, at the time, I didn't even know iron golems existed, either. So I don't know for sure what that werewolf incident was, but it's never left my mind.
That sounds like a strange incident
Honestly I'm glad someone else said it. Easily the weirdest part of Minecraft to me was just how the world was blatantly apocalyptic and the player was the only human seemingly left. It kinda reminds me of Finn The Human from Adventure Time.
Another thing I remember about early minecraft is that nighttime came in waves. Like, you could see the blocks around you get darker. That was creepy. For me anyway.
I have a story to share, I was walking back to my house while it was dark no rain no nothing and suddenly i got struck by lighting it caught me off guard yes but I thought nothing of it, must have been just a glitch well when i got home My farms were empty my animals dead, only thing left was a tamed dog but i didnt have ownership of it (I was on a single player world) I figured i could just exit out of the game and then just reload and old save but when i tried it somehow the world just didnt exist anymore and i had a screenshot of my house from the world but that was the only proof i had that the world ever existed
Love this! I would love to see a video like this and your mario 64 video on how dark toned the atmosphere of DK64 is, and how outright unerving Donkey Kong 64 is! The dark atmosphere complimented by its darker/more serious OST, combined with:
the haunting angry aztec voice that yells "GET OUT" with a countdown ticking and youll get freakin shot if you dont leave in time, the haunting toy factory that is frantic factory, the ...gloominess of Gloomy Galleon and its implications of DKC2, the Creepy Night time version of Fungi Forest, not to mention the GIANT creepy one eyed purple spider you battle, and last but not least the Creepy Castle world as a whole! A lot of other unerving/very eerie parts in the game as well.
Just a recommendation I would love to see if you ever read this!
i created a minecraft server with a website. it didnt get any visitors. i was literally strip mining when i came upon a tunnel. i went up to the surface, and it was a wood and stone hut. not just that, but it had used items and IT WAS GRIEFED. THE BASE WAS BUILT AND GRIEFED. IT WAS LOOTED, TOO. IT HAD A FLAG ON TOP AND A WALL COVERED IN HOLES. this is just crazy
This is true. I also feel like im being watched in minecraft. Im with a lot of players
What if guardians are like constructs from an ancient civilization or something, I'm just gonna let that sink in with the fact they look like robots
ok so i got one story too.
On xmas 2011 i got my first mobile device, i was 7 yo at the moment, i remember that my parents bought me mincecraft from google play, it was the very very early days of minecraft pocket edition, but nvm. I used to love playing it. I was playing for hours and hours in my free time, I had many worlds and very much stuff in them. But somewhere in 2012 i think it was august or september idk, i created a survival world, i played it for a while, and as i remember i've noticed something odd about a day or two after creating this world, chickens from my chicken farm were disappearing, one by one. I thought it was just a weird game bug and i played along. Some days later world was starting to change more and more, blocks were disappearing, ive heard weird noises (i could just misheard, i was 8 years old back then, and it was nearly 9 years ago so i can just remember wrong) passive mobs weren't spawning at all, activity of hostile mobs increased, just like i'd turn the difficulty up. But about a week of playing on this world i just couldn't open it. Game crashed everytime i tried open this world. And thats pretty much it, i think i could say something not right but as i said it was nearly 9 years ago.
the whole igloo situation makes me wonder... what if every thing, every player you could swear you saw in the fog was actually another player? but they just...get as scared as you do and retreated?
2:15 Colder oceans and the pre 1.13 oceans were absolutely terrifying though
I can't think of that many creepy experiences in minecraft I've had. One that I can think of is just finding a random flower in a deep cave and being creeped out incredibly because it was two-high and thus around player height.
