Atrox
by imacjack
Atrox brings a spooky dimension, four new mobs including a boss, two structures and a Wizard villager type to Minecraft 1.20.1 on Forge and NeoForge.
What it does
Atrox takes its inspiration from Latin spooky and horror themes, and the author states plainly that it is not very frightening unless the player is around three years old. The bulk of the content sits in a new dimension, which holds most of the new blocks, items and mobs, along with a dungeon. The Great Angel boss waits inside that dungeon, and the mod also adds a Weeping Angel and a Cracked Weeping Angel that appear in the same dimension.
Outside the dimension, a Wizards Hut generates in swamps and dark oak forests in the style of a witch hut, and a Wizard villager type is introduced alongside it. A Wizardry Table block turns a villager into a wizard. Acid found in the spooky dimension harms a player who touches it, and acid potion types are included. Geckolib is required, so it must be installed alongside Atrox on Forge or NeoForge.
The mod is client and server, so players and the server both need it. Its files target Minecraft 1.20.1 only, with version 1.0.2 as the latest file for both Forge and NeoForge, released 2025-04-09. Atrox is published under All rights reserved and is not open source, though its source code and issue tracker are public.

Spooky dimension

How it compares
Luminous: Halloween is a Forge and NeoForge mod for 1.20.1 – 1.21.1 under the Apache License 2.0, with a seasonal Halloween theme. Spooky And Stuffs is a Forge-only mod for 1.20.1, released under All rights reserved, with a similar spooky block set. Atrox differs by running on both Forge and NeoForge in a single game version and by adding a separate dimension with a boss.

What the author says
Atrox(x) is Latin for spooky/horror, which is where the name for this mod originally came from. I must admit it isn't that horrifying though unless you're 3. The mod includes: - 4 new mobs (including a bossfight) - 2 new structures - 1 new dimension - many new blocks and items
