The Hollow Stalker (horror)(not a dweller)
by NotGuii
The Hollow Stalker is a Forge horror mob that creeps toward players, hears them, and then gives chase until the gap closes.
What it does
The Hollow Stalker is a shadowy, malevolent entity that has been causing disturbances in the overworld. It moves in silence, climbing and crawling toward its target, and it usually attacks when players least expect it. The mob starts slowly, creeping closer while the player may hear only faint footsteps as it draws near.
Once the Stalker gets close enough, the player hears a faint crack and the chase begins. From that point it runs fast and does not slow down, closing the distance within seconds. The mod is for Forge on Minecraft 1.20.1 only, and either side can run it, so a server install is optional. It is released under All rights reserved, and the latest Forge file is version 1.4 for 1.20.1, released on 2026-07-15.
Key features
Silent stalking
The entity approaches in silence, creeping closer over time instead of announcing itself early.
Climbing and crawling movement
The Stalker moves by climbing and crawling, which lets it reach players through terrain they might not expect.
Audible warning
Survivors often hear loud footsteps while it draws near, followed by a faint crack when it is close enough to give chase.
Relentless chase
Once the Stalker starts a chase it runs fast and does not slow down, so the player has to keep moving.
