Horror sounds
by PustePudlo
Horror sounds, by PustePudlo, adds a set of fifteen unsettling voices and sound effects that play at random intervals in a Minecraft world, for Forge on 1.20.1.
What it does
Fifteen horror voices and sounds play during a session, each lasting ten to eighteen minutes, and the chance that any given sound is a scare is about one in fifteen. The author describes a few voice lines, several impact sounds and a rare jumpscare, and the result is aimed at building tension rather than constant noise. Some sounds replace parts of the vanilla audio with a lower pitch. The author notes that the addon ran without problems in single-player, while multiplayer showed some bugs. The server and every player need the mod installed.
Key features
Fifteen horror sounds
A pool of fifteen voices and sound effects is added, each playing for ten to eighteen minutes.
Rare scares
Each sound has roughly a one in fifteen chance to be a scary jumpscare, so most of the audio is ambient.
Pitch-shifted vanilla audio
Some of the game's own sounds are changed to a lower pitch, which adds to the unsettling effect.
