About this project
What does The Cat In The Hat add?
This mod adds the Cat in the Hat and a terrifying experience, along with various events that will scare you.
This mod is inspired by the recent hype surrounding the horror version of the Cat in the Hat; it adds the creature from the 2003 The Cat in the Hat movie—specifically its horror version—to the game, scaring you with sounds and strange occurrences in your world.
The mod adds:
-Various sounds that will play during your gameplay
-2 different behaviors for the Cat In The Hat
-Events that use sounds or even the Cat in the Hat himself to scare you
Pay attention to what is happening in your world; it might indicate that he is getting closer to you.
And don't cheat while the cat is around... because he'll cheat too...
The mod tries to be as close as possible to the Cat in the Hat from the movies and his horror version.
He is always watching you.
