Strange noises of barking or wind blowing are heard near the end before abruptly stopping.

The person is struggling and haunting background noises are heard throughout the recording. The block sounds similar to that of dirt and stone. The official Minecraft wiki describes it as Ī slightly disturbing disc the recording seems to be of a person running across (or maybe breaking) different block types and later on stopping to use equipment of some kind, cough, and then continue running with a hastened pace. Disc 11 was released the same time as Endermen, so it could very well be the murder of a miner by an Enderman. They flick through a book or some pages before hearing a creepy noise, close to the one at the start, before running away again. They light up a fire with flint & steel in a wet cave. It sounds of a man, steve or one of the miners, running away, panting. (It’s just a theory!)ĭisc 11: Disc 11 is terrifying, it is what it is. Or if you really wanted to stretch it, gunshots. It could also be rocks falling into the mine due to the explosions. These next sounds are said to be during or after the crash/pile-upĬave sound 14: A creeper hissing and breathing before explodingĬave sound 15: The explosion of the creeper that started the crashĬave sound 16: Minecart tumbling into other cartsĬave sound 17: Minecarts screeching to a stop before they hit the main Minecart, killing the miners.Ĭave sound 18: More sounds of minecarts crashing into the original 2 Minecarts.Ĭave sound 19: This sounds like the chattering of something, it could be Herobrine, it could be another creeper ready to explode. These sounds are leading up to the crash/pileup of the minersĬave Sound 3 The low pitched grumble is said to be a Minecart continuing rumbling on the tracksĬave sound 4 The delayed echo of the Minecart crash is heard throughout the caveĬave sound 5 This sound is another Minecart scraping on stone before crashing into the other MinecartĬave sound 6 This is the sound of a Minecart engine.Ĭave sound 7 Suspense or ambiance after the crashĬave sound 9: A minecart tumbling and falling off the tracksĬave sound 10: Minecart wheels screeching when brakes are appliedĬave sound 11: A minecart at a high speed before crashing into the crashed minecartsĬave sound 12: Rocks falling and hitting the minecart before the crashĬave sound 13: Wind echoing from the crash throughout the cave. These sounds are regarded as seconds before and the death soundsĬave Sound 1 The cave theory starts off that the first cave sound is the miners blowing the whistle on their Minecart before they crash.Ĭave Sound 2 ‘Angelic humming’ is heard, this is what people regard as the death of the miners upon the crash

Here is a rundown on what each cave sound sounds like. It is believed that the cave sounds tell a story through each sound, and when played in order, tell the tale of the fate of an accident inside a mining system that took place many years back. As of version 1.13, there are currently 19 sounds that are all played randomly when you enter a cave system, dungeon, stronghold or when you are near the darkest point of your world. Players believe that it could be either an accident, a creeper or the mysterious Herobrine. People believe that Cave sounds 1 through to 19 as well as discs 11 & 13 involve the crash and death of a group of miners. Of course, the main element to Minecraft is the first letter in the name, mining. It isn’t meant to be taken seriously! The backstory There has to be a reason for the mortifying sounds of the caves, and many players believe they have a theory onto what they are.Īt the end of the day, this is JUST a bit of fun at the eerie sounds Minecraft has inside their game.

I have had nightmares on at least 300 occasions after mining and have it now permanently turned off. If you have ever been mining for an extended period of time with ambient sounds on, there is a good chance that you have jumped out of your chair due to the music that plays. Minecraft isn’t all fun… I’m telling you, it’s terrifying and this ‘Cave/Crash theory’ just adds to it.
