The Pale Hound Jar(Bedrock and pocket edition 1.21 1.19 1.20

The Pale Hound – Bedrock Edition (Port for 1.21 / 1.20 / 1.19)
Minecraft can feel safe until the shadows hide something that doesn’t belong. The Pale Hound is a simple yet terrifying addition to your world: a relentless Dweller-style mob whose only goal is to chase the player. Unlike complex mobs with smart AI or advanced tactics, the Pale Hound is straightforward. It runs, it follows, it attacks—and its simplicity makes it all the more frightening. You only need to survive its constant pursuit.
Core Mechanics
- Relentless Chasing – From the moment it detects a player, the Pale Hound moves directly toward them. There’s no stopping, no hesitation—just pure pursuit.
- Darkness on Attack – Each time the Hound lands a strike, the player’s vision is reduced temporarily, creating moments of panic and disorientation.
- Spotted Mechanic – When the Hound sees a player, it triggers a brief freeze effect for 6 seconds. During this time the player cannot move; a sound effect and visual cue signal that the player has been noticed.
- Vanish Mechanic – After defeating a player, the Hound may disappear, leaving a sense of mystery and keeping encounters memorable.
Why the Pale Hound Works
Simplicity can be terrifying. The Pale Hound’s effectiveness lies in its persistence, predictability, and relentlessness:
- No hiding forever – It chases relentlessly, forcing players to stay on the move.
- Limited visibility – Darkness after each attack reduces your ability to plan an escape.
- Fear of the unknown – Vanish mechanics make the Hound mysterious, maintaining tension even after encounters.
This design is ideal for Dweller-style gameplay: players rely on reflexes and courage rather than complex tactics.
