''Herobrine'' originated from a post on [[4chan]]'s [[wikipedia:/v/|/v/]] board, detailing a player's encounter with an entity with glowing white eyes in ''[[wikipedia:Minecraft|Minecraft]]''. The concept of a white-eyed paranormal being in the game emerged from this narrative, marking the start of ''Minecraft'' [[creepypasta]]. The story spread on the Minecraft Forum, involving a myth about "White Eyes," a female creature with blank white eyes stalking players. It evolved into the Herobrine myth, with different versions describing him as the deceased brother of Notch and taking the form of a human entity with white eyes. The story narrates an encounter in Minecraft with Herobrine, involving strange behaviors and mysterious messages.<ref name="mwiki">https://minecraft.fandom.com/wiki/Herobrine</ref> | ''Herobrine'' originated from a post on [[4chan]]'s [[wikipedia:/v/|/v/]] board, detailing a player's encounter with an entity with the appearance of a default Steve skin with glowing white eyes in ''[[wikipedia:Minecraft|Minecraft]]''.

While many are familiar with the ''Herobrine'' story, the identity of the entity remains a question. There is a rare suggestion that ''Herobrine'' is an otherworldly entity from a different dimension that has somehow manifested itself in Minecraft. Others propose that ''Herobrine'' is a virus or glitch that found its way into ''[[wikipedia:Minecraft|Minecraft]]'', causing chaos. It's also possible that ''Herobrine'' was once a mob or boss in the game that was removed for unknown reasons. Herobrine himself could be a figment of the player's imagination. Those who claim to have 'seen' him may be imagining ''Herobrine'' haunting their game. Many assume that before ''Herobrine'' passed away, he was a miner who died and was mysteriously brought back to life, now haunting not only Minecraft but also the abandoned mineshafts where he presumably worked when alive.<ref>https://creepypasta-biographies.fandom.com/wiki/Herobrine</ref> | While many are familiar with the ''Herobrine'' story, the identity of the entity remains a question.
