The Creaking, also known as the Weeping Angels, was introduced in Minecraft Java Edition 1.21.4 with the Tricky Trials update. It is the first asymmetrical entity in the game, capable of stalking players and immune to all damage except through its heart, which can be found in trees in the Pale Garden biome. The Creaking only moves when players look away, similar to the Weeping Angels from Doctor Who. It spawns at night or during thunderstorms and remains dormant within a 12-block radius of a player. To defeat the Creaking, players must locate and destroy its heart, which leaves an orange trail if the Creaking is engaged. Destroying the heart yields resin clumps, while attacking the Creaking can also drop resin clumps nearby. Players can use a Silk Touch tool to mine the heart intact for decorative use, but caution is needed to avoid spawning another Creaking.
