# ๐ Spooky GUI โ A Halloween Makeover for Minecraft
> *The moon is full, the candles are litโฆ and your inventory will never look the same again.* ๐๐ฏ๏ธ
**Spooky GUI** completely redesigns Minecraft's interface and HUD for Halloween. This is **not** a simple recolour: every container screen is **redrawn from scratch** as a tiny moonlit graveyard, with ornate pumpkin frames, rounded slots, divided sections and hand-placed decorations that change from screen to screen.
It is **100% client-side** โ install it and join any server or world. ๐ง

## โจ Highlights
### ๐ชฆ Every container is a graveyard
- ๐ผ๏ธ **Ornate pumpkin frames** with gilded corner brackets and candle-coloured studs
- ๐ **Segmented panels** โ the inventory and hotbar sections are linked by notched dividers instead of plain grey boxes
- ๐ **Night-sky backgrounds** with swirling violet fog and twinkling stars, plus a *witch's lattice* behind your inventory
- ๐ช **Rounded, inset slots** โ and **glowing pumpkin rings** around every result slot
- ๐ชฆ **A unique scene on every screen**: RIP tombstones, stone crosses, gnarled dead trees, wrought-iron fences, jack-o'-lanterns, dripping candles, skulls, a full moon, flying bats, a bat hanging from the frame and a spider dangling on its thread ๐ท๏ธ
- โฐ๏ธ **Your player stands inside a coffin** in the inventory (and in the creative inventory tab!)
- ๐ธ๏ธ Cobwebs in the corners of every container
- ๐ค Titles and labels are written in **warm candle light**, so they stay readable on the dark panels
Works on the inventory, chests (single & double), furnaces, blast furnaces, smokers, crafting tables, the crafter, anvils, brewing stands, enchanting tables, stonecutters, looms, grindstones, cartography tables, smithing tables, hoppers, dispensers, droppers, shulker boxes, villagers, beacons, horses and the **creative inventory with all its tabs**.
### โค๏ธ A brand-new HUD
| Vanilla | Spooky GUI |
|---|---|
| โค๏ธ Hearts | ๐ **Jack-o'-lantern hearts** โ hardcore hearts get a carved face! Poison turns them toxic green ๐งช, wither turns them to ash, freezing turns them to ice โ๏ธ and absorption turns them to golden candy |
| ๐ Hunger | ๐ฌ **Wrapped candies** (they go sour and green when you have Hunger) |
| ๐ก๏ธ Armour | ๐ **Little skulls** |
| ๐ซง Air bubbles | ๐ป **Ghosts** that fade away as they pop |
| โฌ Hotbar | ๐ช A dark velvet hotbar with an orange frame, candle studs and a **pumpkin-stem selector** |
| ๐ฉ XP bar | ๐ฅ A **glowing ember bar** with sparks |
### ๐ฐ๏ธ Pumpkin clock
A small HUD widget shows the **time of day** and counts your **nights** survived. At night the jack-o'-lantern **lights up and flickers like a candle**, and at the **witching hour** (00:00) the clock turns **blood red**. ๐ฉธ
A soft **violet mist** creeps in from the edges of the screen after dark.
### ๐ Haunted menus
- ๐ **Halloween loading screen** โ the red Mojang Studios screen is replaced by a midnight sky with a full moon, flying bats, a glowing jack-o'-lantern, *HAPPY HALLOWEEN* in pixel letters, a graveyard on the horizon and an **ember progress bar with a dancing candle flame** ๐ฏ๏ธ (at startup and on every resource reload)
- ๐ฆ Title screen at **night**: the panorama turns violet with a pumpkin glow on the horizon, a **full moon** rises and **bats fly across the logo**
- ๐ง Orange **MINECRAFT** logo
- ๐ช Velvet buttons with pumpkin trim, chamfered corners and candle rivets
- ๐จ๏ธ Tooltips framed in pumpkin orange with **gold diamond studs**
- โ๏ธ New checkboxes, sliders, tabs, text fields and scroll bars
- ๐ฌ **Halloween splash texts** โ *"Trick or treat!"*, *"Spooky scary skeletons!"*, *"ยกTruco o trato!"* and many more

**Can I use it in my modpack?** Of course โ have fun! ๐งก
