The Stalker Shelter
by larrys0891
The Stalker Shelter is a Forge horror mod that turns the night into a survival test, built around darkness, sound and scarce supplies.
What it does
Players who start a world on Forge find that night brings pitch-black lighting and a dynamic lighting system that makes exploring frightening, with a flashlight serving as the only dependable light source. The sound design was reworked so distant footsteps, screeches and metallic groans make each movement feel uncertain.
Resources are scarce and injuries are severe, so players must manage their gear carefully to avoid being left defenseless at a bad moment. Mutants and anomalies stalk the dark instead of wandering aimlessly, waiting for the right moment to attack. The server and every player need the mod installed. Files are published for Forge only, for 1.19.2 – 1.19.4, with 2.0.0 for 1.19.4 as the latest build. The mod is released under the Creative Commons Attribution Non Commercial No Derivatives 4.0 license and is not open source.

Horror sounds is a Forge mod for 1.20.1 under the MIT License that needs both the client and server. The Shadow Stalker is a Forge mod for 1.19.2 under the GNU General Public License v2.0 only, and both the server and every player need it.
