About this Mod
Welcome to the Night Hunters mod, this mod adds in two new groups into your Minecraft world, the Vampires and the Vampire Hunters. If you ever felt that Minecraft needed some extra challenges, then this is the mod for you, the Vampires are hidden inside of Manors that are hidden inside of forests, and although these manors are rare they are not for the unprepared, it's recommended to go in with enchanted Netherite armor to avoid being immediately defeated. The Vampire Hunters are a whole different matter entirely, they are neutral to the player, and will onlyattack if they are provoked, if they are provoked there numbers will make them very formidable, as they have archers, swordsman and there captains, but with diamond armor they will go down, and skilled players will only need iron.
Added Features.
