Nightmares

Nightmares should happen in single player Minecraft.  When the player “wakes up,” the nightmare happens.  They don’t really wake up, it’s just part of the nightmare.  

Events during a nightmare:

Random monster noises happen seemingly really close to the player.  

If the player turns around quickly, they have a chance of being confronted by a screaming enderman, creeper mid-hiss, or baby zombie.  

Random items disappear out of chests and the player’s inventory.  

If the player gets too close to lava, a zombie spawns and punches them in.

If the player makes it to night (somehow) and tries to sleep, it tells them there are monsters nearby.

Once the player dies, they find them selves sleeping in bed and they wake up quickly.  Everything will be reset to the way it was before the nightmare, and the player will realize that it was all just a bad dream.

    I like the idea, but this seems more fit as a mod, as it doesn't quite fit Minecraft's style. Then again, neither do Pandas...

     WolffixDesign It is already a mod, actually there's several mods made that sound very similar to this. I think the witchery mod's dream world is the best rendition.

    Almost like if you were to sleep then “teleport” to a new dimension of nightmares but you have slowness and any mob there won’t kill you but if it attacks, you wake up

    Awesome idea. maybe it would be more likely to happen if you eat rich foods like cake or chicken before bed...

    Actually back in the early days of Minecraft there were Nightmares, it was when you would go to sleep but wake up to find a mob next to you in the middle of the night. It no longer exists...

    this sounds good, but i think it should have some kind of use. perhaps when you wake up from a nightmare, you get speed (and maybe some other effects) due to being scared. maybe you get slightly lower prices from villagers because they feel bad for you. perhaps you get increased awareness and fear of danger—you can see and hear entities and harmful blocks (hostile/neutral mobs, arrows, fire, falling blocks, players(?), etc), from slightly further away, pits, entities, and harmful blocks have an outline around them whenever they're in sight (like how the glowing effect works, except it changes depending on brightness); blocks that hurt you are harder to collide with, and walking, falling, swimming, etc into pits or harmful blocks doesnt happen unless you keep moving for a few ticks or get pushed.

    Nightmares in minecraft would be fun. But it seems to mod like.
