What The Horrors in the Fog works with.
| Platform | Java Edition |
|---|---|
| Loaders | Forge |
| Minecraft versions | 1.19.2, 1.20.1 |
| Environment | Client, Server |
The Horrors in the Fog is a horror themed modpack for Minecraft Java on Forge, built around From The Fog (the mod behind the modern Herobrine encounter) and a handful of other jumpscare focused horror mods layered into one instance. It runs on Minecraft 1.19.2 and 1.20.1, and both the client and the server need the full mod list installed to play together.
What mods The Horrors in the Fog bundles
The pack's own listing names its headline mods directly, alongside performance and shader mods added for smoothness rather than scares.
- From The Fog, also known as the Herobrine mod, the returning entity behind the pack's core scares
- The Man From The Fog, a stalking humanoid that shows up at range in fog and darkness
- The Midnight Lurker
- The Better Cave Dweller
- The Knocker
- Nyf's Spiders
- Sanity, Descent Into Madness
- A Doctor Who crossover mod built around the Weeping Angels
- Supporting performance mods, shader options, and gun mods the pack lists as added for smoothness and immersion
The listing is upfront that the pack can trigger jump scares and loud effects, and it recommends playing with friends rather than solo.
How to install The Horrors in the Fog on Forge
- 1.Install Forge for Minecraft 1.19.2 or 1.20.1 first. See how to install Forge if you have not set up a mod loader before.
- 2.Download the .mrpack file from the official Modrinth project page.
- 3.Import the .mrpack file into a launcher that reads Modrinth packs, such as the Modrinth App or Prism Launcher. See installing a Minecraft modpack for the general steps.
- 4.Launch once to let the launcher pull in every bundled mod along with the matching Forge version.
- 5.For multiplayer, copy the same mod list onto the server, since both sides are required.
Client and server requirements
The Horrors in the Fog needs the full mod list on both sides. It is not a client-only jumpscare pack you can drop into a vanilla server: anyone joining without the matching Forge version and mods installed will desync or fail to connect. Plan on a dedicated server running the same instance if you want to play with friends instead of solo.
The most recent build, version 1.1.9, targets Minecraft 1.19.2, and the modpack has not shipped an update to a newer Minecraft release since. Forge is the only loader it supports, so there is no Fabric or NeoForge build to fall back on. Players who want a similar Forge horror lineup on a more current Minecraft version can compare it with Cave Horror Project 1, which uses several of the same mobs on 1.20.1.
Questions about The Horrors in the Fog.
5 questions
How do I install The Horrors in the Fog?
Install Forge for Minecraft 1.19.2 or 1.20.1, then import the pack's .mrpack file into a Modrinth-compatible launcher such as the Modrinth App or Prism Launcher. The launcher downloads Forge and every bundled mod automatically on first launch.
Which mods does The Horrors in the Fog include?
The pack bundles From The Fog (the Herobrine mod), The Man From The Fog, The Midnight Lurker, The Better Cave Dweller, The Knocker, Nyf's Spiders, Sanity, Descent Into Madness, and a Doctor Who crossover mod built around the Weeping Angels, plus supporting performance, shader, and gun mods.
Does The Horrors in the Fog work on multiplayer servers?
Yes, but every player and the server itself need the same mod list installed, since both the client and server sides are required. It is not a pack you can add to an existing vanilla server without also running it server side.
Which Minecraft version does The Horrors in the Fog support?
The pack supports Minecraft 1.19.2 and 1.20.1 on Forge. Its most recent release, version 1.1.9, targets 1.19.2 and was published in October 2024, so it predates Minecraft's current year numbered releases.
Is The Horrors in the Fog safe to use?
It is released under the GPL-3.0-only license and distributed through its official Modrinth project page, so the source and terms are clear. As with any modpack, download it only from that page rather than a third party mirror.
