HandsOfTheVoid.jar
by Xuver
HandsOfTheVoid is a NeoForge horror mod for 1.21.8 – 1.21.11 that turns the game against the player with entities, structures and liminal dimensions.
What it does
Multiple entities with different behaviours watch, haunt and attack the player, and structure blocks can appear around them while they play. Players can be teleported into new liminal dimensions, and the lore is spread across the game, with more details found as the story unfolds. The author describes a slow burn that draws on a broken script.
The mod is built for players who want unsettling, horror-driven play in single-player worlds or on a server. Its content includes flashing imagery and loud, disturbing sounds, which can trigger epilepsy or be distressing. Config options let players adjust parts of the experience, and the mod was made without MCreator.
HandsOfTheVoid runs on client and server, so the server and every player need it. It is published for NeoForge only, with files for four game versions and 1.1.1 for 1.21.11 as the latest file. The code is not open source, and the mod is released under All rights reserved.
