Mojang often confirmed that they had never added an entity such as Herobrine to the game and neither did they plan on doing so in the future. Many adventure map makers, popular YouTube personalities (like Yoggscast), and even the developers themselves were mentioning the ghostly figure of Herobrine. Throughout Minecraft’s history many popular content creators began adding their own spin to the story of Herobrine. Many Minecraft players claimed to have seen Herobrine haunting their world, but ultimately, none of these claims had any truth to them. Forums of Minecraft fans began sharing individual screenshots of either corrupted worlds or of Herobrine himself. While these two incidents were eventually proven to be fake, the story of Herobrine had already become too famous. However, the streamer ended up accidentally admitting that it was a hoax in one of his streams and was bombarded with negative comments by the Minecraft community of fans. He ended the live stream, kept claiming that he had seen Herobrine and got the desired result of his stream becoming a hot topic.Īnother streamer by the name of Patimuss ended up using the same trope in one of his videos, where he retextured a door to look like Herobrine was floating in a field of lava. Copeland had placed that painting there to fool his audiences. He started streaming his normal survival world, deliberately avoiding to go into one of the rooms of the build he was working on.įinally, he went into the room that contained a retextured painting to look like Herobrine. In fact, he took the story one step further and even staged a hoax using a live stream video. The story truly took off when the Brocraft streamer, “Copeland” photoshopped a few screenshots of the game to look like Herobrine has haunted his game. And even without any evidence, the legend of Herobrine kept growing. Despite Notch having denied having any brother, dead or alive, some Minecraft fans kept believing that Herobrine was Notch’s brother who had returned to haunt Minecraft. Some Minecraft players even started saying that Herobrine was the dead brother of Notch, the creator of Minecraft. It so happened that these corruptions became the story of Herobrine. Minecraft players began reporting corruptions in their singleplayer survival gameplay - entire forests with no leaves on the bark, weird structures that could not have naturally spawned in the world, and even manmade 2 × 2 tunnels in underground caves. The creepy legend first came to surface in a Minecraft player’s unclear screenshot, in which the player reported to have spotted a figure with white glowing eyes in his singleplayer world.Īt first, the image was ignored by the Minecraft community but soon, an urban legend was weaved around the mysterious figure. While Herobrine has never actually existed in vanilla Minecraft, his story has been around for a little over 10 years now.
