Minecraft's latest snapshot has a witchy woman

4.4
Minecraft is getting a Halloween-related update in October, and among a slew of other changes (including updated sounds) a new creature is being added to the game. She's a witch! Mojang developer Nathan "Dinnerbone" Adams said the witch will be a ranged attacker, and will use the "Testificate" humanoid model, along with a polygonal nose that will wiggle and twitch.

Dinnerbone also hinted at a new animal type, while YouTuber Martyn (aka InTheLittleWood) posted a new video, which shows NPC bats are on their way to Minecraft. They'll spawn not only outside at night, but in any area, under or above ground, if there's a big enough space. They'll also hang upside down, rather creepily.

The new update should be out next month, so get your candy bags ready for then.

Agreed, Mine-craft is adding way too much. We don't want everything in the game. We want to be a creative instead of everything being laid out for us. All we need were females and cities with other NPCS.

Not sure about the witch, but the bats seem like a nice touch. I can already see myself pooping bricks after placing a torch in a dark cave, instantly getting attacked by a swarm of bats because of it and with a Creeper in the background closing in.
