The latest update in Minecraft, the “Chase the Skies Summer Drop, ”introduces a delightful new mob: the happy ghast. Unlike their fiery counterparts from the Nether, these whimsical creatures bring smiles instead of screams. Players can befriend and use these adorable ghasts for rides with a unique item. If you’re curious about how to engage with these charming beings, you’re in the right place. Read on to discover the process of taming a happy ghast in Minecraft.

Taming Happy Ghasts in Minecraft

As it stands, happy ghasts cannot be tamed in the classic sense. During the recent Minecraft Live 2025 event, details were shared about their functionality, but no guidance on breeding these creatures was provided. Nevertheless, you can still acquire these enchanting entities through a creative process.

Taming a happy ghast begins with obtaining a dried ghast block. This can be achieved by crafting it with eight ghast tears and a block of soul sand. Once you have your dried ghast block, the next step is to waterlog it. This process will take approximately 20 minutes, at which point it transforms into a ghastling, another variant in the game. To further develop your ghastling into a happy ghast, you can feed it snowballs. In another 20 minutes, your ghastling will blossom into a joyful happy ghast! For a detailed walkthrough, please refer to our linked guides above.
