The Disturbed Minecraft mod: Features and how to download

Over the years, Minecraft's community has released loads of horror mods for the game.

In recent times, however, horror mods have become a lot more detailed, not only jumpscaring players, but also affecting them psychologically.

The Disturbed mod was created on April 21, 2025, and was added to the CurseForge website.

It essentially adds one major entity or mob called Masked that will always haunt players throughout their survival journey. However, the Masked is not the only mysterious creature players will encounter.

Apart from the Masked mob itself, players will also see various pitch black shadows of enderman-like entities standing in various locations, facing the player.

Explorers will also get to hear faint whispers, come across unique structures that are not in vanilla, and experience other eerie events that give a feeling of being watched.

The Masked itself has two different identities while it stalks and hunts players. The modder stated that the main mob will have some sort of advanced artificial intelligence and will react appropriately to every player's action. Hence, it will be unpredictable in nature and action, making it quite dangerous.
