DoorsCraft Legacy
DoorsCraft Legacy is a fanmade Forge mod for 1.20.1 that adds Doors-themed mobs, a villager profession and a set of items drawn from the horror game series.
What it does
The mod was made with MCreator and adds creatures from the Doors theme, including the Ambush, which can be summoned with its own spawn egg. Its entities carry a custom damage type with custom death messages, so a player killed by one sees text written for that creature rather than the standard vanilla message.
A villager profession based on Jeff is included, with a sculk-style block that goes with it. A Skeleton Key item is also part of the set. The author notes that other entities have not been added yet, and the list of creatures in the mod is limited to the ones named above.
Installation requires Forge for 1.20.1, and the environment is client and server, so both the server and every player need the mod. The only Forge build published so far is 2.0.1 for 1.20.1, released on 2025-08-06, and the code is under All rights reserved.
Key features
Ambush spawn egg
A spawn egg lets players summon the Ambush mob in the world without waiting for it to appear naturally.
Jeff villager profession
A villager profession based on Jeff, paired with a sculk block that belongs to the same theme.
Skeleton Key
A Skeleton Key item is added to the set of Doors-themed gear for players to craft or find.
Custom death messages
Creatures from the mod use their own damage type, so death messages name the creature that caused them.
