Whispering Spirits
by locallupo
Glowing eyes that appear around the world are the central feature of Whispering Spirits, a Forge and NeoForge horror mod that adds spirits to the game.
What it does
The spirits are harmless. When a player looks directly at one, it vanishes and unsettling whispers are heard nearby. The mod targets atmosphere rather than combat, and it runs on client and server, so both the server and every player need it. Builds exist for 1.19.2 – 1.21.8 across six game versions, with 1.4.0 as the latest Forge file for 1.20.1 and the latest NeoForge file for 1.21.8.
The mod is released with source code and an issue tracker, but the license is All rights reserved, so it is not open source.
