Minecraft ARGs, or "alternate reality games," are interactive online stories that usually have horror or mystery elements that viewers have to piece together to find the next part. Most Minecraft ARGs feature scary servers, mysterious entities, or hidden glitches that scare players. Here are some must-watch Minecraft ARGs:

Don't Look at the Moon: Players run into glitches and dark experiments whenever they're caught looking at the moon in this underrated gem.
Simon 12: A player thinks he's mining with his friend until he gets a real-life message from them and realizes he's with a stranger.
Whistle Occurrence: A dark entity named Flowers appears in Minecraft servers and makes a whistling noise that drives players crazy.
