Slenderman is perhaps the scariest videogame villain ever invented. The spindly, sharp-suited nightmare attacks from behind, but stands completely still if you look at him, creating some horrifying stand-offs. The mod adds Slenderman as a mob, but theres also a save file that you can use to replay a scenario based on the original Slender game.
Weeping Angels
These freakish stone statues behave a lot like Slenderman, but are great if you want to add a dose of Doctor Who to your Minecraft world. The weeping angels dont seem to kill you right away. Instead they prefer to stalk you through the world extinguishing lights, which is actually worse.
Resident Evil
The adorable Wesker skin makes this worth an instant download, but theres so much more to enjoy, especially if youre a fan of Capcoms Resident Evil games. Expect creepy versions of the licker, zombie dogs and boss enemies like the relentless Nemesis. If you take a hit you can craft herbs to heal up in authentic Resident Evil style.
Mutant Creatures
This mod gives your favourite Minecraft mobs a scary twist. Zombies, pigs, skellies and creepers all get new attacks, but the Enderman is the star of the show. His mutant variation can throw blocks and even clone itself. Luckily Mutant Creatures gives you a way to fight back, in the form of the mysterious Chemical X. Throw it at enemies to bring them on-side.
John
You cant miss this towering, toothy beast. The mod adds instances of John to your Minecraft world. Hes big, tough, and enthusiastically chases you if youre unlucky enough to get too close. If youre clever enough to kill him, however, hell drop an immortality gem that lets you craft the immortal blade.
Jolicraft SpookyHalloween texture pack
The most authentic Halloween texture pack out there, Jolicrafts skins evoke the earthy orange tones of a pre-carved pumpkin. A creepy orange moon, orange wheat fields and grim stone textures create a much scarier atmosphere than their typical texture packs, which are normally dedicated to making Minecraft a cheerier place.
The Orphanage
Your car has broken down and the only shelter you can find is a huge abandoned orphanage. Its not one of those nice orphanages that looks after children, its one of the creepy abandoned ones full of terrifying noises and murals painted in blood. You might want to just stay in the car.
The Monastery
You will not see the light again. Thats the reassuring opening message of The Monastery, a scary and incredibly dark adventure map that has you exploring the bowels of some abandoned catacombs. The Silent Hill texture pack gives this map its gritty, creepy tone.
Grief
You know things are about to get bad when all of the lights go out in your building and you have to venture into the basement to fix the fusebox. Worse, youve just watched a news report asking residents to stay indoors because of a mysterious event. Brace yourself for some serious jump scares.
