Horror Cryptid: Sasquatch (Bigfoot)
by TortuDragon
Horror Cryptid: Sasquatch adds a Bigfoot-style creature that stalks players in the Old Growth Pine Taiga biome, where visibility is limited at night.
What it does
Sasquatch appears only in the Old Growth Pine Taiga biome, so the mod suits single-biome worlds. The creature grows more aggressive the longer a player stays near it, and the author notes that finding remains of dead hunters in the woods hints at what happens to those who linger.
Entering the Old Growth Pine Taiga gives the player a Sasquatch Detector, a device that helps locate nearby cryptids. Version 1.2.2 adds more sounds and makes the creature deadlier. The mod is built around limited visibility at night, and the author recommends a shader pack for darker nights. Files are published for Forge 1.20.1 under All rights reserved, and the environment is client and server, so both the server and every player need the mod.
