Happy Ghast
by leblobb
Happy Ghast is a NeoForge transportation mod that lets players mount a ghast-like flying entity, and it is a backport of the feature shown in the 2025 summer drop.
What it does
Players can ride a happy ghast, a mountable entity that carries up to four passengers, a capacity first shown during Minecraft Live. The mod recreates that feature for NeoForge. Crafting one takes five bone blocks and four ghast tears. Every player and the server need a copy of the mod. Files are published for NeoForge only, covering 1.21.1 – 1.21.5, with 1.1.1 for 1.21.5 as the latest file. It is released under the MIT License and is not open source.
Key features
Mountable flying ghast
A happy ghast can be mounted and steered by a rider, turning the mob into a means of travel.
Four passengers
One happy ghast accepts up to four passengers at a time, so small groups can travel together.
Bone and tear crafting
The entity is crafted from five bone blocks and four ghast tears, which keeps its cost in line with the materials it takes.
