During Minecraft Live in 2025, Mojang announced the arrival of the Happy Ghast to itssurvival game.
Here’s how to find, tame, and ride Happy Ghasts in Minecraft.
How to find a Dried Ghast
Happy Ghasts do not spawn naturally.
This is the Dried Ghast–an immobile, shriveled Ghast.
Piglins are just above 2% likely to offer a Dried Ghast when given a Gold Ingot.
The entire process takes around 20 minutes.
At 20 minutes, the Dried Ghast will turn into a Ghastling.
Ghastlings will not drown underwater, and after 20 minutes your Ghastling will mature into a Happy Ghast.
Once the Happy Ghast has a harness equipped, firstly it’ll look adorable.
Seriously, look at it.
When harnessed, the Happy Ghast will roam within a 32-block radius of its home.
Unharnessed Happy Ghasts roam up to 64 blocks away.
If the Happy Ghast dies, it will drop its harness.
If you want to remove the harness without harming the Happy Ghast, use shears on it.
