Looking to spook up your game in time for the Halloween season? Consider adding these ~* terrifying *~ cryptids to your game! This mod won second place in the October 2023 Stardew Valley Discord mod jam!~
About
This mod adds five new creatures to the game through Custom Companions, all adapted from real life cryptids. Each one has a unique spawn location and time.
Below is a list of all the cryptids and their encounter conditions:
Configuration
This mod offers a few different config options so you can customize your spooks exactly how you want them! You can tweak this by either editing your config.json (found in the [CP] folder of the mod) in an application such as Notepad or by using the Generic Mod Config Menu mod.
Installation and Removal
Can be installed like any other mod, by downloading and unzipping into your Mods folder. Can be removed at any time.
Future Plans
More cryptids? Conversation topics for the villagers to comment on the cryptids? Creaturebook feature? We'll see!
This mod has also not been tested with map overhauls, such as SVE and SVR3. If you use either of these mods, or any others that change the layout of a map where the cryptids spawn, please let me know if you run into any compatibility issues and I can try to fix it for a future update.

Configuration
This mod offers a few different config options so you can customize your spooks exactly how you want them! You can tweak this by either editing your config.json (found in the [CP] folder of the mod) in an application such as Notepad or by using the Generic Mod Config Menu mod.
- Seasonal Conditions: offers two options, YearRound or FallOnly. Set to FallOnly by default.
- Rarity: offers two options, Common and Rare. Set to Rare by default. Common allows all cryptids to spawn, just as long as you are in the correct time and location. Rare gives each cryptid only a 10% chance to spawn each day.
- Each cryptid also has a setting to turn their spawn on or off, in case you have a phobia or general dislike of that particular design! All are set to true by default, set to false if you want to remove a particular creature.
Installation and Removal
