Blankstare mod
by Ago2020
Blankstare is a Forge mod for Minecraft 1.20.1 that removes the Blankstare game and adds a scary entity with night-time events.
What it does
Players who explore at night may encounter a hostile figure called the scary guy, whose behavior centers on watchful eyes within fog. The Blankstare Mod is built around the feeling of being watched that many lonely crafters describe, and the figure stays furious once a player slips through his gaze. Mining down can also cause him to generate and rage.
Most of the mod's events happen during night time, and only a few events are present in total. Music discs can be found that transform noteblocks into griefed versions, and the mod draws on the nightmares of Dream 1 and 3. Siphoning teleports is also part of the content. A feature that can kick players or disable a world through commands is described by the author, though the author notes it is uncertain.
Installation needs only Forge for 1.20.1, and the environment is client and server, so the server and every player need the mod. The latest Forge file is 1.0.0 for 1.20.1, published 2026-07-31. Blankstare is released under All rights reserved and is not open source.
