The Monastery
If you love to dwell in the unknown without knowing what to expect, this Minecraft horror map will fulfill your wishes.

The Monastery is a pretty simple horror map. It's a scary monastery hidden away from the public eye, filled with stories of mass murder, torture, rituals, and many more disturbing secrets that the players will encounter on their way. It's like a big haunted house, which will scare even the bravest playing Minecraft.

The map features a custom texture pack in which everything looks even scarier, as well as its own soundtrack and numerous jump scares. This is only for the bravest.
The Orphanage
One of the scariest horror tropes is children, especially if they're young children with a tragic backstory to their death.

Now imagine being all alone in an orphanage in the middle of nowhere. In this map, you were driving back to your hometown, and everything was completely fine until your car suddenly ran out of gas. There was nothing around or a place where you could look for help, but rather just a single orphanage that looked abandoned at first sight. Yet, it was the only place where you could seek shelter.

This is officially one of the scariest Minecraft horror maps with its own texture pack, soundtrack, storyline, and jump scares, so beware.
Black Light
If you like to explore scary hospitals and mental asylums, we think this Minecraft map is going to be perfect for you.

Black Light sets place in an abandoned Russian hospital and mental asylum. You wake up there all of a sudden, not able to remember how did you even get there in the first place. All you know is that a radioactive incident has ruined the city, and now you're completely by yourself in this scary building. Collect resources mandatory for your escape, and don't look behind you.

Therefore, your only goal is to leave the building, but is that even possible? Everything is in ruins. Nobody can help you - you're completely alone.
For You
Now get ready for the scariest Minecraft map on this list, which may be just right for you.

This Minecraft horror map takes place in a school. You're trapped inside an old-looking school with hundreds of same-looking corridors and rooms. Your goal is to survive, as there are rumors that one of your dead classmates has come back to life, and now it's on you to see whether you will survive or not.
For You is a perfect combination of a unique and disturbing texture pack - it uses a lot of jumpscares and creates a perfect scenery that hasn't been seen in any of the prior Minecraft horror maps.
