Tbh the ghost having redstone in its hands makes sense,were in a mine,maybe the ghost was singing songs while mining and it died while breaking redstone with its hands

I'm actually thought this was just another cave dweller mod, but this was actually making more mob variants and more than just a monster constantly trying to find you. Combining these both will make the cave scarier and more lively

Would be cool if the really tall guy could sense the ceiling above him and duck accordingly. So he can not only fit through tiny spaces, but can also crouch in tighter caves -- then stand up when he has room.

I honestly kinda want to see every cave sound, or group of cave sounds, have their own unique monster now… if this was a full blown mod, I’m sure tons would download it.

Yes the last monster's sounds were made by myself. Yes my throat is ruined

I think if you had much more time to cook, the stalker could’ve easily been the scariest among the trio. One could argue that it’s just “lanky guy” and “creepy smile” monster number 9999, but I think this monster makes those two monster tropes work well by outright taking those features to it’s logical conclusion! Instead of merely being a foot or twice your height, the Stalker is instead exceedingly tall, likely exceeding the average players house in height inspite of being in a cave, giving them an extremely unnatural vibe. The fact that they’re completely shadowy instead of pale bone white also adds to their design, as you can just about but not quite see them walking… reaching out on singular, yet excessively long arm. That constant cheeky smile from them and their casual walking adds to the whole design, as it feels like unlike all the other mobs, the Stalker is merely just 100% playing with you, with how it reaches it’s hands out and slowly strides towards you with the biggest asshole grin one could think of! I think It gives them a unique, creepy character.

I feel like no. 3 was the best: A creature that can chase you through walls is annoying (Think of the reaper from Lycanites Mobs, or the Vexes from Vanilla) But a creature that can mine straight towards you is absolutely terrifying; it takes something that only the player should do, and uses it against them.

The second monster had so much potential! I've noticed he only has one fully formed arm, maybe you could make him spawn the other arm as a new monster. Like he grows back his arm, tears it up and makes it chase you.

I feel like Mojang should spend more time making caves scarier to reflect what solo caving is like in real life. The reason why caves are scary is because there is only one or two exits. You can’t make yourself more room in the cave or dig to the surface. You are trapped in a dark, damp, echoey, laberynth that consists of twisted crawl spaces and tight passages. I feel like that is what the Minecraft sounds are trying to get you to feel, that feeling of utter dread as you are trapped underground with your only escape being a long and slow trek in the dark looking for where you came from.

All of these, expanded and refined, combined with the original cave dweller mod would be absolutely incredible, you guys should collab and remove the time restriction

Wish we could have actually seen them from the victim's perspective more... And I feel like the blindness actually counteracts the fear factor in a strange sort of way, since you can barely see the terrifying creature that's chasing you. That's why the darkness effect the Warden uses flickers the way it does, so that you can still see the monster while having your senses disoriented. The tall lanky one is by far my favorite... If you could have polished out the issues with its hands it would have been amazing!

Honestly if you had more time I’d suggest a few more features for the “Cave Trio” “Haunt”/Cave2 noise monster should never actually be able to hurt or kill you. Like it’s a snow golem but a lot worse. It blinds and makes you scared- but it never can kill you. It’s just setting you up for the other two monsters to turn you to disgusting gibs deep in the mine. However I do like what your friend suggested and think it should be driven away from the light. I actually like the idea that all of them could be driven away by light. These aren’t just monsters. They’re lessons in making sure you mine safe and prepared. “Stalk”/Cave5 noise monster should definitely keep its creep and lean look. It’s good. “Stalk” and “Haunt” I feel would be excessively terrifying if they spawned together or in conjunction with one another, perhaps after being blinded that’s when Stalk can go in for the kill, or Haunt sings a song of other cave sounds and it’s that horrifying song that Cave Noise 5 is hidden within- allowing Stalk to come in soon afterwards. “Brute”/Cave8 noise monster- the block breaking is a cool idea. But I feel it should only be able to break blocks similar to what the Creeper can/limit what it can break- like only stone and ores. Or if it can break blocks- it should always drop the blocks mined like they were mined with a pickaxe. Nothing is more infuriating than spotting diamonds or some other rare ore vein and losing them through some means not under your control. And Minecraft is a game all about you controlling the world- at least that’s Mojangs design philosophy.

funny enough cave sounds do mean something: each represent a cave enviroment like: mineshaft, huge caves, ravines, etc,.

These are super cool concepts that I'd love to play with once I got a new PC! It's a shame that the second monster was unfinished, hopefully in the future you'll return to this and finish it like you wanted to and maybe add new ones

A lanky figure with a creepy, smiling face, that blends into the shadows of the darkest caves... It's what I always pictured made those sounds.

i like how people make these creatures to give players reasons to be terrified of being in the caves besides just out of paranoia. well done!

These monsters are really cool, especially the thing with the hands reaching through holes is such a scary fun concept. If they actually existed in Minecraft, I'd never go into a cave, EVER. Seeing the first one's glowing eyes then it quickly floats toward me would make me close the game in fear lol. Well done!

"So I listened to all cave sounds, had a nightmare..." this implies you can on command choose to make yourself have nightmares whenever you go to bed what form of power is this?

Tbh that second one despite looking so good simply felt like a letdown. All that time took to add those animations and the only one that actually she gets showed is it's attack and walking animations. I loved the idea on hands reaching out to grab you and spawn him in.

I feel like if it werent for time constraints yiu really could have improved the miner. Maybe instead of just ignoring blocks in its way it could attack them to break in an area when aggro'd on a player. Either way, great video, loved the designs, especially the stalker.

This + Cavedweller = Cavephobia

The second one was a really interesting design. I would love to see a full mod with ability to reach into small spaces fully fleshed out. It would probably work better as a surface mob, spawning in wide open biomes like plains (at night of course), and with the ability to open doors to make it work against shelters. Very cool idea, shame you didn't have time to finish it.

These are really cool original monsters, I love the lore about the miner, it reminds me of amnesia: the bunker. Having all those immersive sound mods would really drive up the creepiness

I love this idea, the thought of the cave sounds signifying an actual enemy that's trying to find you is terrifying. I would love to see the same concept applied to the ocean sounds too. Quick concept for the ghost mob, what if instead of becoming immediately hostile, it gives you a debuff that increases intensity every time one stage wears off. At stage one it just haunts you, staying a distance away and watching you, then at stage two it starts attacking you, it's invulnerable but backs away every time you hit it, then for every stage after that it becomes more hostile and more persistent, until it simply won't leave you alone, and the only way to remove the debuff is to go above a certain Y level, giving you a sense of urgency to leave the cave once you realize you're being followed. There could also be some alternative ways to deal with it so it wouldn't be too annoying, like eating a golden apple to cure yourself or making it killable if you have smite on your weapon

You should make it so the ghost is only hostile in complete darkness and will flee the light, it should drop the phantom membrane. The stalker would benefit from the opposite, he would stop his stalk if you're in complete darkness and eventually despawn, crawling inside a crevice. The miner should only break blocks when he's berserk and give him a time limit, then after he should besusceptible to damage.

Cave dweller, Man from the fog, from the fog, Greg, and this. The ultimate "shit ur pants" modpack

i am not sure how easy it is to do that since i am not familiar with creating mods for minecraft but a suggestion for the second monster to make it really terrifying: it starts off as a black thing with only white glowing eyes just stalking the player in the dark but not attacking, as soon as the player attacks it or stays too long looking at it, a white smile appears, the monster becomes extremely fast, it starts to run at the player with intention to kill, twisting its head very fast while trying to maintain eye contact, putting the whole body forward and releasing a horrible screech that sounds like a distorted scream as if the creature was in pure pain, hatred and desperation

Hey i really loved this idea and wanted to add some of my thoughts on top of it. I understand it’s ambitious however its more for just some ideas/brainstorming to make the mobs feel more terrifying. Here are some i came up with: Ghost: First encounter- Exact same behavior as before however things change after your first visit. Condition A: The next time you attempt to enter a cave he will appear (randomly) after you venture down a bit. (Possibly on a timer after you enter a cave or leave a light source) Condition B: If you attempt to sleep he will sometimes jump out at you. (Can be stopped by crafting nightlight, an item then can be crafted with a torch and possibly sculk material (doesn’t have to be sculk, just something that requires some progression so its not so easy to prevent)) Sub conditions: He has more of a tendency to jump out at you if you are unprepared and or alone (not near players or pets) (doesn’t possess a certain decimal of armor or have certain weapons in inventory) Stalker (my personal favorite): He would have 3 stages- Stage 1- Stage 1a: stalker appears in the corner of your eye as you pan away from it, you then look back only to see its gone. Stage 1b: Given enough time to stalk he then appears to just stand there and stare at you from a distance. If you get too close before he vanishes, stage 3 starts. Stage 2- In stage 2 he begins poking his head out of holes and cracks to look for you. If he sees you he uses his long arm to try to grab you. This could start a mini chase scene where his arm continues to attempt to grab you though holes as you run. Stage 3- After a period of unsuccess he will then crawl out of a hole and begin directly chasing you. Or he will randomly round the corner and stage 3 begins. First he lets out a screech and then he gets on all (threes?) and begins to gallop/limp towards you all while screaming. Not sure if im married to the idea of him galloping towards you but he should chase in some way after the build up. I also still like the idea of him moving slowly yet steadily like he did in the video. Miner: Same behavior except he can smash though blocks to get down to you (maybe 2 at a time?) Possibly could disguise as a vein of emerald to fool player. (Emeralds usually don’t spawn in veins so pay attention) By no means am i requesting these to be added im only adding my input, this is a really good mod and has a lot of potential so if you do pursue it more here are some ideas you could stem off of. Thank your for the video.

you should make the ghost flee when stared at for too long and only approach when it is close enough to the player and to make it stop haunting you you need to be exposed to extremely bright light like sunlight

This is really a neat idea, any plans on releasing it soon?

I don't feel all the cave sound monsters should be hostile. I think the stalker one should have been a passive mob which is just curious about you but it wouldn't attack unless you hit it.

The Miner is so cool, the ultimate counter to the player, like the enderman who can break and place blocks, the miner, better at breaking than the enderman and the player, but at the cost of being to much of a brutish force of nature to be able to place them.

As someone who doesn't play Minecraft, this is cool as hell

6:10 first of all how dare you, I hate that, SO much, but I also love that, SO much... that subtle horror of seeing an impossibly long arm reach out and feel around for you is terrifying. I just wish you had the time to properly get that to work. If I was just walking through a cave and saw that? I'd stick with stone tools for the rest of my days, I mean who needs iron or diamonds anyway!?

I can’t remember but didn’t you have an archaeology video? You went over the problems and the solution to the new mechanic. Other than that the video is really nice. Keep up the good work 👍

We are getting close to a whole collection. Though in these mods I wonder how do you counter or avoid these things?

Woa welcome back

OH MY GOD THIS WOULD BE PERFECT WITH CAVE DWELLER, also new sub-

"Who cares about the diamonds?" That's when you know you truly scared her 😂

You described cave5 perfectly, and the monster fits it to. Making it just a dark figure is great and the hands sticking out of holes fits great for the feeling of seeing something of the corner of your eye while *thinking* your alone

the existing cave sounds being used for a new monster is definite more what I was hoping for with the cave dweller.

The first ghost must've been a fan of noteblocks, the singing, the redstone on it's fingers...

I strongly recommend you a part 2 of this video where these 3 creatures have their remake and not just done in 1 day, frankly if this was done in 1 day what they could become if you spend time, creativity and dedication to make these 3 beings even more terrifying, they have a lot of potential involving this to become one of the best horror mods along with cave dweller it would be spectacular I really liked it. You are very creative josh.

I want to see this as a full blown mod

A bit more work and updating, you can make these guys way creepier. If the ghost-like one would hide in the walls as soon as the player tries to look for it, becoming more aggressive after the first sneak attack that gives blindness would be really terrifying. Fully animating the crouching and reaching for you in tight spaces for the tall lanky one armed dude would be epic. For the miner, slow down the speed at which he breaks blocks and add a few extra moves like him ripping a chunk of stone out of the ground and yeeting it at the player if they are too far out of it's melee range or give him a huge broken pickaxe as a weapon. All in all, this has some awesome potential. Combine this trio with the cave dweller too and going mining will become a lot more anxiety inducing.

The second one seems like something comic makers would make into a silly little skrunkly, or the scariest thing you've ever seen in your life.

It'd be cool to see a creature that stands in the dark and just extends it's arms in the players direction instead of chasing them. Maybe it can only stay in the dark and to catch a player in the light it'd grow it's arms up to 20 blocks or so

mob idea :a friendly mob that stalks people

The third monster is actually terrifying. Imagine being alone in a mineshaft, with creepy music and sounds, then you see this breaking through the wall coming at you.

Bro, I appreciate the twist on a cave monsters mod

good job,. I like the idea of the second one, the execution just needs polishing.

Your back:) I don’t really comment Much but this is a special moment so welcome back 🎉🎉🎉

the second mob reminded me instantly of the old horror game "the crooked man" thanks to your description of what you were doing.

It says a lot when one person can add more content to Minecraft in a single day than Mojang can add in a year.

I love them all, the second one though, that second one… omg that is what embodies a cave sound. It is fear incarnate.

Name/Lore idea for the first one since you came up with lore for the third one. The Redstone Wraith - a malevolent spirit that serves as a lingering remnant of a wanderer who died deep underground. It haunts the caves of the Minecraft world and will kill any player it finds as a twisted warning of what happens when one ventures too deep underground. Its voice serves as a form of echolocation. If you can hear it... _it knows where you are._ The Redstone Wraith does not behave entirely aggressively, however, as though a small semblance of humanity remains within.

"The mine cart driving accident, crashing to a bell" is my favorite cave noise

The stalking one is pretty cool, nice and spooky

These mobs are great and could be amazing with some refining i really hope you pick up this mod again, my only gripe with this is ballance which is the same problem i have the cave dweller(for exemple the haunting effect from the ghost kinda means if you get hit once your just screwed until you die or do whatever else you need to clear it, making it so the effect only activates once or has a time limit would add something i feel but thats just what i think) its a hard line if you make it too weak and the player realizes that it will lose its scariness factor immediately but if its too powerful it becomes a gimmick you play once with yourself or your friend's and then forget because you cant seriously think about adding to a modpack, since it makes mining a pain and the 5'th time you get killed by it without being able to do anything it still loses its scariness factor.

Terrifying 😱…… great job!

These are awesome. Please finish them off and release them

Mojang dev in two years: colorful wood Fan dev with a soda cup and crestivity:

The Miner would definitely make caves a lot more terrifying

Axis worker male 3: aaaahhhh! I saw something run! Axis worker male 2: nnnnooooo! Axis worker male 1: cave monsters run away!

“And let her judge the last creature on this list..” **”the minor.”**

Ironic that I seen your videos from 2 years ago but only just subbed a few days ago and your back lol

man this mod look really good and scary i mostly loved the 2nd monster because it looks like something from one of my nightmares

hey create part 2 pleas that be good series

Making the Stalker be in the upper corners of the rooms, just like in Hereditary would be INSANE.

If I saw the Miner running at me in my head the theme in Pizza Tower will start playing (Ok campers!… RISE AND SHINE!)

3:20 - You should have made the eyes visible even when you were blinded, to add to the horror aspect: you hardly see where you go but you see it approach you, closer...

That last one is straight up nightmare fuel because its AI makes it seem like its actually hunting the player, stalking you while tunneling all around you.

I sure hope this gets released, its a incredibly cool idea, and would be super fun to play with.

If Minecraft devs actually put this in the game, I'll know who to blame.

I love the stalking creature, the hand poking through holes to grab you is so cool

+ 1 Subscriber! Such a very fascinating mod for such a youtuber like you i have one very important question dough what are the names of the creatures? And will the mod be downloadable? (Please! I wanna try it!)

I loved the second one!

You should make creepy mobs based off of the underwater sound effects.

idk man, that guy in the thumbnail looks pretty chill

Miner is the scariest - at least in the context of Minecraft. Normally only you can break blocks (with the exception of the Ender Dragon) which gives you the comfort of knowing you can build a safe space for yourself. The Miner makes it so there is no safety. I'd say the Stalker is my favorite though. If you had the time (and patience) to get it working, that would be an awesome mob. I think the head design works against it a little, more of a "designed to look scary" than organically scary because it's stalking you, but everything else is extremely cool and very creepy. The Haunter just looks like it'd be frustrating to deal with. Vexes are annoying - vexing, one might say - and the fact that it's basically just a more persistent Vex that also blinds you means I hate it by default. Great design though!

I think the idea of scaring the monsters away with light is a very nice idea. If you make thee mods into downloadable mods I’d like to try ‘em.

Yooo these are amazing, I’d love to see more of these!

Second monster was good, too bad it was unfinished and broken. It has amazing potential.

This is 100x better and scarier than the cave dweller lmao

Imagine updated cave dweller with this💀💀

Well crafted monsters.

The second one was honestly the scariest, if I was in a single player world and saw just a tall creature who would run at you. Would make me loose my soul-

bro had a nightmare and made a mod in minecraft, this is pure art

AMAZIN!

something creepy would be if mojang added something like this but didnt say anything about it, and leaving it out of the update description, making it so that if you encounter it you think your game is haunted or something also instead of just continuously attacking it would always do half your health, so if your at all ten hearts, you go down to 5, or if you have 1 heart left, you go down to half a heart, then disappear.

Pro tip: Removing the mouths increases the scare factor

The ghost seems fine to me. The tall stalker could be fixed by making it less tall, and then the animation you wanted for it would work. The miner brute I think is overpowered. It should have its mining ability slowed down. Right now it mines so fast that it walks through solid stone, but this only causes it to miss the player most of the time because it's not following the existing tunnels. Smart players will also be able to exploit its fast mining ability by using it to mine for them and collecting the blocks while avoiding getting killed. Maybe give it the ability to make cobblestone walls behind it to trap the player.

We need some part2 of this

My favorite was no. 2 in concept, however, as you said in the video, it wasn't quite given enough time to be pulled off properly. The animation adds SOOOO much to it though.

The Miner was quite interesting. With more that could have been peak.

You should make a horror Focused mod, featuring all fo these and some extra blocks

You're really good at making mobs, mojang should consider hiring you!

We need more cave sound monsters

"Listened to the cave sounds, had a nightmare, then chose 3 of the best ones." - a poor soul

Bro try to make some monster from disc sound too
