Creepy Community Creations

Of course the Minecraft community isn’t something that will let this Holiday come to pass quietly. As a result, a lot Halloween themed horror maps and resource pack have been popping out, including those with terrifying music packs.

The Digital Nightmare Music Pack 

Features post apocalyptic sound track created by NeptuneUK and some fillers by TeknoAXE. This resource pack replaces the music of the vanilla and doesn’t alter any texture, so you can freely using along with other resource pack of your choice.

Lights Out 

Is a Vanilla horror/ thriller map with a scary winter theme. In this map, you’ll play as a young girl who decided to stay home alone during the winter holiday.

When it’s late a night, you hear some glass shattering, and discovered that the electricity is out. Now all you need to do is try to turn the lights back on.

Lights Out is a nice thriller map that lingers around the fear of being left all alone in the dark.

The Orphanage 

Is a horror map filled with scares, creepyness, and shocking/ gruesome imagery created by username REMO.

Probably one of the scariest maps ever made in the history of Minecraft, The Orphanage features a scary ambiance, realistic texture, an intriguing story and lots of jump scares.

Due to the popularity of this map, it has several versions translated into 3 other languages: Dutch, Turkish, and Chinese.

If you want to be scared this Halloween, put this map in your to-do-list!
