Don’t take the pig out! It is an offering from the village to try and keep the monster at bay. (Then remove it like a month before the server shuts down to signify the beginning of the end)

That pig as already a different destiny. They want to launch it from build height to Bedrock with fishing rods to see how fast it goes.

Before the monster rises, kill the pig and leave the pork chops in the boat via armor stand.

Very creepy pit. Suggestion: Use soul lanterns instead of regular lanterns when it gets deeper, give a visual color change as it goes further down.

I love this suggestion! Also, at the bottom, there should be a massive ore vein, to show where they abandoned digging when the beast was unleashed. Equipment lost in the panic would also be good.

Oooh i think adding a couple hidden dripstones with water over top could add to the ambiance of the creepy hole

It's so refreshing to see a massive hole that isn't all smooth sides.

Those horse statues were so freaking cute and pretty

“I PROMISE HUMANS CAN DO IT TOO” -Cleo actually recording this video in a secret mineshaft irl

is there anything more contagious than cleo's contagious joy? i loved the bit with false haha

I’m so exited to see what the monster is. I also loved Grian’s disbelief that you dug the hole out by hand.

Happy Birthday for yesterday!! I love this lore so much, it's so cool that the whole village is centred around this story! And the creepy mine and hole is so good!!! I love the timelapse music too!! And LOL when Grian thought you'd done an explosion without asking him! I'm excited to see more about the monster and story!!

For a creepy effect with the lighting is maybe have a water logged sensor activating out of sight lamps to add flickering lights down some of the tunnels off the big hole. It looks amazing though! :D

Love how Cleo doesn’t even explain the boat pig and how they miraculously had the perfect place for testing it.

The whole village idea gives so much D&D vibes! With the artificier, the wizards etc

i really appreciate that it was all done by hand. insane and very creepy

Assuming you will be having an event of some kind, you could use observers and delayed redstone to timed droppers raining “crumbling walls” blocks onto the path in front of the clients. 😉

That's the Pit, I'm glad it doesn't go down in spirals or I'd be freaked out XD That was a huge dig but it's looking scarily amazing

When Cub starts selling your rockets, it would be very colorful and magical to have them in dispensers on your amazing new bridge that goes off when you walk past. Whether it's timed to injure the passerby or just be exciting is an exercise left to the reader.

Hole is huuuuge. That must have taken ages.

I find it funny that there is no explanation, how the pig got to the bottom of the mine. (I know how from Pearl's stream)

Can't wait to see the details with the mine. Also, you could prompts the Hermits to change their lighting settings before they enter. That way, it's spooky enough!

can you add glass fog effect? it will make the creepy hole a bottomless pit. digging it by hand is a testament on how good Cleo is, the details of the hole is so good.

The music choices throughout the episode were just perfect!

9:46 The pure shock in Grian’s “what” is so funny.

That path could make a great horror chase game(one person gets some items like jump potion or even an Elytra but with restrictions like can't overtake the chased, but also one or two debuffs/buffs like slowness and has to chase the others up the path to kill them/turn them or so, possibly with a monster skin and creepy noises, especially with some other hermits doing game stuff and the gaming district existing it might be a good horror themed group game) Also happy birthday fellow may person xD

I'm plangeling on your patreon... Are you about to summon the Tarrasque on the hermits!? THATS LIKE AN END GAME MOB.

the designers of your plinth horses are literally so talented! Like jaw on the floor

“We gotta get rid of the pig.” And here I was thinking the pig was the sacrifice/meal like the goat in Jurassic Park. Then later on you’re like, “Where’s the pig?”

ngl, the sudden darkness at 2:31 scared me XD Cleo sounded so happy, then a second of silence. The mines are also very cool!

It looks like something from a Lovecraft book. cthulhu is coming.

9:07 could totally be one of Cubs horns! Cleo just saying she's got a massively creepy hole out of context would be hilarious! 😂

that mine entrance is a masterpiece! super reminds me of those old adventure maps people use to make (i remember one in particular that is very reminiscent of the mine, had something to do with dracula's castle or something). awesome work!

Timelapse music definitely gives off a creepy vibe

Man, the music you used during the pathway down into the hole was so perfect for the vibe you're building up this season.

Happy belated birthday Cleo! :3

From the command center, you could add branches that go in one or both of the other directions that were sealed off for any reason like a cave-in or something

I missed your stream yesterday so I didn't get the chance to but happy birthday Cleo! You're videos make me smile whenever I watch them and you always give interesting and insightful commentary Here's to a great life!

Loved that a horse was dancing on the side of the mountain the whole time you were building the horses.

I *love* the path down into the mines. It's reminding me of dungeons from some of my favorite RPGs, where you descend linearly through a series of platforms (and fight monsters on the way) before getting to the Big Boss at the bottom. You captured that effect perfectly, and I can't wait to see the Eldritch Horror that the greedy humans have awoken. Also: very much love to the memorial for Gluestick and Drumstick. Long may their spirits prance.

Grian being semi upset that Cleo dug it all by hand instead of using explosions.

For some reason the view from the bottom of the hole reminds me of those parkour map levels where the lava is gradually rising (my least favourite things in parkour maps which adds to the uneasy feeling the hole itself gives, so i guess that's a bonus)

I appreciate creepiness in Minecraft. More creepy builds and horror builds, yes please! ^_^

You can use a silenced ender man in a boat (using tripwires) to detect when a player looks at it. Hide it in a wall behind a painting or something and you can have some real creepy effects. Wall that has an eye that opens when you look at it at just the right angle, custom jukebox that insults the player looking at the painting

If I had a nickel for every time a Hermit built a giant hole with a monster inside, I'd have 3 nickels. Which is honestly, not nearly enough! 😂

Cleo you are insane clearing all that by hand.

Cleo, Don't build a giant Cthulhu on that hole. And if you do, don't build it out of wool. And if you choose wool, don't ask X to enable doFireTick. And if you do, check the bedrock for lava pockets. If you know, you know.

Oooh that’s a good creepy mine

I love the way that the big creepy hole looks and feels! Two ideas i had watching your video: For the copper parts maybe make them less and less oxidized the further you go down since there i less and less oxigen left in the air. Maybe test out the ressouce pack that Gem is using to make her place look creepy. Perhaps that will make that big hole even creepier for some cinematic shots.

It is so much fun watching this take shape. Looking forward to seeing what this monster is going to be!

an idea for the creepy tunnel leading to the creepy hole. you could add some like armor stand bones to help with the creepiness of what lies down there

Oh Cleo this looks so cool and creepy! Really really love it you nailed the vibe!

Every Hermit is different, but you are the MOST different and I love it, Deep dark holes, magic bridges, and recreating memories for Skizz. You are the best.

The hole is epic! Cleo standing on the bottom of the hole: there will be a monster here. Oh, there is one already!

There is a creepy horn at the horn shop that is "i seeeee you" Maybe have a pressure plate about half way down the monster hole that triggers the sound when a hermit steps on it? Or trigger music boxes to make moster sounds.

The ominous music during the creepy hole digging montage was perfect ambience

you are soo talented with armor stands, omg!!

The attention to detail- inspirational video.

Happy belated birthday Cleo! Love the lore idea and the big creepy hole. Can't wait to see what comes out the pit of horrors :)

That’s some really good Timelapse music fits well with the theme

This is the reason I love Cleo’s builds! I love the ways she tells a story through them! I love a good story and I’m so excited to see what they do with this! Also sidenote, lots of horrors and monsters around the server this season (Cleo, Gem, False mentioned there’s something in the water) and im obsessed!!!!!!

The fact you mostly didn't use boom boom blew my mind.

Real darkest dungeon vibes, love the new additions

you could feed the pig to the monster to save having to bring it up

could also add within the hole where the walk way is is like where a monster has broken some of the path to get down to describe a story, and see if anyone can help with redstone where if you walk by that certain area it brings out either like a zomie/skeleton/spider/creeper?

Omg I love how we jump right into the video! No intro juts jump right into it!

I just want to tell everyone that I absolutely, completely LOVE this! We need more creepiness on the Hermitcraft server! I also love it when bases have lore.

happy belated birthday cleo!!!

Some rock golems, glowing green and silver crystals and some flowing lava and you nailed the feel of LEGO: Rock Raiders...

I just wanna say the ominous action-y string music you put over your building montage for the creepy tunnel and shaft is a really great touch! Really gives a sense of budding mystery and importance on the build. Love the story your creating so far! :D

Dude, Cleo totally Nailed the Creepy Vibe! Like it's not... well, you can tell where it IS inspired from Existing Fiction, but it's not like a Direct Inspiration from any singular Fiction. Like, it totally looks like an Original Take. And the Creep Factor is off the charts. Like I feel nervous just watching the Descent through and down that Mine. I can only imagine what I would feel like to walk through it! Good Job ZombieCleo!!!!

The little robot at the beginning reminds me of the little bowler hat robot from Meet the Robinsons.

Very cool hole, total creepy 100% vibes.

My favorite bit was your giggle at grian’s reaction absolutely golden

Oh we love a good creepy hole with a monster in it (Also I cannot tell whether Grian was more offended that you didn't invite him for an explosion or that you dug the hole by hand. Fun, that.)

I love the lore! PS: you can use those copper lights and amethyst crystals to play around with the low lighting.

A stygian chasm falling away into the depths. Very thematic.

Happy birthday Cleo 💗 hope it was epic!

Oh boy I can't wait for when you finally get to let the horrors out of the mines!

dang I can't imagine what that mine would look like with the insanity shaders pack

"Retro future magic" sounds like a description of He-man and not a bridge

Humans awakened a force they should not have messed with and the monster makes them pay the price! I like it!

Creepy tunnel was so cool but looked like it might’ve cause carpal tunnel!

You know those old rickety elevator things that use like chains and ropes? I think that’d go nicely for creepy hole. Love the story telling that’s always a part of hermitcraft.

Cleo your imagination is epic, I so enjoy the storylines behind your builds and can't wait to see more progress on this, and the monster it all sounds creepy and weird and I'm here for it! I also just love the clear enjoyment that you get from what you do, your laughter as you go is just everything. Thanks so much for taking all of us along for the ride!

That mine is legit creepy

Specifically for creepy builds like this I kinda wish there was a lantern sized copper bulb where it would still do the "gets darker as more weathered" thingy. I think that would fit in great for this, still provides light but steadily gets dimmer, the lanterns would look all corroded. Also fully agree with adding some soul lanterns as you go down for the color shift. The creepy hole is amazing and I had a similar reaction as Grian when I saw it in his video when you said it wasn't an explosion. The time lapse was immensely satisfying to watch.

INB4 the "monstah" is just Stress. whether it's an armorstand Stress or "organic build" Stress or Stress herself locked in a "cage" i cannot yet say. LOL

All caught up on videos now! :) Just want to say that I absolutely love your talent for telling stories through Minecraft builds and armor stands. So often we hear people say they are bored in Minecraft or simply don't know what to do next. Having a story behind a build makes so much difference. Most people can build a simple log cabin. However, if that log cabin is where a villager lives, an eyepatch over one eye, and the legend is whomever ventures near that cabin mysteriously disappears, it isn't "just" a cabin anymore. Maybe there are random patches of "fresh" dirt scattered behind the cabin, moody lighting like you did in your mine, etc. My point is, you are quite successful in telling these stories and I love it. I do have a personal hope, although I doubt it will become a reality. I am hoping your monster is Fifi from Tango in Season 8. lol No matter what it is, I have zero doubt it will be beyond fantastic. :) Love your face. :)

The hole is reaally artistic. I like the rickety pathway down.

Happy belated birthday the 6.5 hour stream was so fun!!!

oooh that is so cool. looking forward to whatever you've dug up down there ::D

Oh wow you put so much work into the mine. You haven't even been under falses bridge yet, she put a surprise under it.

I loved your enthusiasm about the bridge!
