Slender: The Eight Pages

A Slender Man horror survival mod for Minecraft. Every night, find the 8 pages before he finds you.

Requirements

You need all four of these for the mod to load:

This mod does not work on Forge, NeoForge, Quilt without Fabric support, Bedrock Edition, or any Minecraft version other than 1.20.1.

Installation

1. Install Fabric Loader. Download the Fabric installer, choose Minecraft 1.20.1, and click Install. A new "fabric-loader-1.20.1" profile appears in the Minecraft Launcher.
2. Open your mods folder.
   • Windows: press Win + R, type %appdata%\.minecraft\mods, press Enter.
   • macOS: ~/Library/Application Support/minecraft/mods
   • Linux: ~/.minecraft/mods
   • If the mods folder doesn't exist, create it.
3. Add two files to the mods folder:
   • slenderman-1.0.0.jar (this mod)
   • the Fabric API jar you downloaded
4. Launch the game using the fabric-loader-1.20.1 profile.
5. Create a new world and play. You should see "Slender: The Eight Pages" in the Mods list if you have a mod menu installed; otherwise just look for the Day counter at the top-left.

Do not extract the jar. Put it in mods exactly as downloaded.

Multiplayer and servers

• The mod must be installed on both the server and every player's client, along with Fabric API.
• Use a Fabric server for Minecraft 1.20.1.
• The death jumpscare is client-side, so players need the mod installed to see it.

How to play

• Start a normal world on Easy, Normal or Hard. Peaceful mode means no damage.
• Daytime: only a day counter is shown. Nothing happens.
• Dusk: a 10-second VHS intro plays, then a page counter appears. 8 pages are hidden in the world.
• Collect all 8 pages to make Slender Man disappear until the next night, or survive until dawn.
• Don't stare at him, and don't stay still. Camping in one spot for about 4 minutes, or hiding indoors for about 30 seconds, makes him hunt you and break through doors and walls.
• Slender Man has infinite health. You can hit him, but you can't kill him.
• If he kills you, expect a jumpscare before the death screen.
• For best results, play at night-time brightness defaults, headphones on, in a dark room.

Wall-breaking requires the mobGriefing game rule to be on (it is by default).

Commands

Require operator permissions or cheats enabled.

Troubleshooting

• Game crashes on launch / "Incompatible mod set": check that you're using Minecraft 1.20.1, the Fabric profile, and that Fabric API is in the mods folder.
• Mod doesn't appear: make sure the file ends in .jar and sits directly in mods, not in a subfolder.
• Wrong Java: if you run the game outside the official launcher, use Java 17 or newer.
• No sound or static: check that your Master volume and Hostile Creatures volume aren't at 0.
• Using other mods: this mod hasn't been tested with other mods that change death screens or the HUD. If something conflicts, try removing the other mods first.

Reporting bugs

Please include:

• your Minecraft, Fabric Loader and Fabric API versions
