The creaking is a hostile mob that generates in the pale garden from a creaking heart. It can also be spawned by using a spawn egg or by the
/summon command.
Behavior[]
A creaking is spawned around an activated creaking heart at night or during thunderstorms. It becomes alerted when a player looks at the creaking while within 12 blocks. It returns to its idle state if no player remains near it, or the player goes into Creative or Spectator mode. When a player is looking at it, a creaking will be unable to move or attack unless the player is wearing a carved pumpkin. However, if no players are looking at it, it will move towards the nearest[verify] player and attack it, dealing 3
damage in Normal difficulty. A creaking will not move beyond 32 blocks from its creaking heart even while following a player.
A creaking spawned from a creaking heart cannot take any form of damage and is immune to knockback, but when hit by a player or pet, a trail of orange particles will appear between the creaking and its heart, and 2-3 resin clumps will be exuded on the sides of pale oak logs near the creaking heart. Once its creaking heart is destroyed, a creaking will twitch and then disintegrate.
Creakings spawned from spawn eggs or the /summon command are not connected to a creaking heart and persist through both day and night. They take damage and have 1 health.
Illagers are afraid of creakings and run away from them. The "Johnny" vindicator (who normally would attack almost any other mobs) is also afraid of the creaking but does consider the creaking a mob, leading it to get as close as possible to the creaking before running away. Creakings are completely immune to damage from lava, fire, wardens, zoglins, and withers, unless spawned from a spawn egg or the /summon command.
