This resource pack turns Minecraft's world into a shadowy land, with darkness being a significant factor even with the brightness set to "bright". It upscales the textures for almost every block in the game, which sits well with the theme of Halloween, and revamps the GUI.

A new skybox can be seen, with an updated model of the Moon. Also, many of the sounds are different from their vanilla counterparts, such as the sound of footsteps on wood and crows crowing.

4). Dokucraft Dark

This resource pack adds numerous new horror-themed textures to the game. It changes block textures to an almost dungeon-style look. The atmosphere is grim and spooky, with every item getting incredibly detailed textures.

Chests look like something out of Skyrim, and lava gets a dark red color similar to natural magma.

3) Overgrowth

The pack changes textures, so it looks more raw and ragged. It adds a new GUI, gives hostile mobs new, terrifying expressions, and makes the world darker, dynamic, and spookier. Also, the vegetation in each biome spreads out into an adjacent biome.

For example, the dark green grass of the Savanna biome can spread into another biome or can even be seen in the water.
