About this Mod

You can disable these effects at any time using the command:
/fromthecaves photosensitiveMode

This mod adds a single stalking demon that changes forms and follows you throughout your journey in caves, on the surface and the nether. It behaves in a variety of ways, interacting with the world by affecting blocks and mobs in different ways. The mod has lore inspired by movies and real-life events, which is revealed as you explore some of the structures and dialogues (coming soon). The upcoming 0.7 story mode update will introduce many body horror and adventure horror elements!
The mod also adds a phase system, that requires the player to take some kind of action. You have to release it, anger it, or do something to advance the entity to the next phase. There are three phases (0, 1 and 2) at the moment, but i'm working on more for the future. Along with this, the mod introduces new mechanics such as exorcism, holy water, crosses, and more, along with new blocks and items that are very important.
