Spooky

🎃 Spooky

Halloween for your survival server: blood moon nights, cursed graves that rise out of the ground, and jumpscares in dark caves.

Made for minecraught.com.

Features

🩸 Blood Moon

Some nights the moon turns red (25% chance by default):

• Red screen edges, a darker sky, and fog
• Nobody can sleep through it
• Extra "Blood" mobs spawn around survival players. They're faster and stronger, and they dissolve at dawn.
• Monsters killed by players drop double loot and XP

🪦 Cursed Graves

At night a mossy headstone, with a sign and a candle, pushes up out of the disturbed earth near a player. Undead keep climbing out until someone breaks the headstone, which drops bones, gold nuggets, sometimes emeralds and name tags. Graves crumble back into the ground at sunrise.

😱 Jumpscares

Rarely, a player alone in a dark cave sees a face fill the screen with a scream. Then the lights go out and their heart pounds. Each player has a cooldown, and players can turn jumpscares off for themselves with /spooky jumpscares off.

Resource pack

The plugin offers players a small optional resource pack (hosted on minecraught.com) with the jumpscare face and scream. Players who decline it get a red skull and vanilla screams instead. Everything still works.

If your server already sends its own resource pack, the spooky pack is added alongside it, not instead of it.

Requirements

• Paper 26.3
• Java 25
