The original Herobrine emerged from a creepypasta which was a description of a player who encountered it in his Minecraft world. This was on 4chan’s posted paranormal bulletin board but hasn’t spread far and wide.

Is Herobrine still in Minecraft 2021? Was he real?
As absurd as the question may seem, it is not an ignorable question. You will be shocked to know that Notch, the creator and the development team have completely rejected the existence of Herobrine. Notch said in 2012, “I don’t have a dead brother and he’s never been in the game. Not real. It never was.”
Also during the final release from Beta 1.6.6 to 1.9, Notch specified that Herobrine has officially been removed from the game, albeit against the opposition of fans. However, this hoopla has led to more turmoil, as many players still sensed his presence in the game, while some argued that he was never an official character but a simple fan-made mod.As the years go by, it becomes more and more mysterious where and who exactly is Herobrine.
Alpha version 1.2.3_03 of Minecraft is one of the versions where Herobrine made his first appearances, there is a lot of speculation as to how Herbronie came about, whether it came from a file or was developed on purpose, but the truth is that since Alpha 1.2.6_01 and Alpha version 1.2.6_02, there are already stories of his appearance.
What is Herobrine and where does it come from?
The legend started on 4chan. A user shared a story that a character with no eyes appeared in a solo round and he built pyramids and dug tunnels. When he asked other players in the forums about similar experiences, a user named “Herobrine” warned him. The user then learned that Herobrine was the now deceased brother of Mi’s creator necraft Notch. This story inspired streamers ‘Copeland’ and ‘Patimuss’ to alter individual textures to look like Herobrine, thus inserting terrifying sightings of Herobrine into their live streams. While the Patimuss hoax was quickly debunked, Copeland helped the legend spread and endure.
Herobrine has never been in Minecraft, the story is fictional and Notch has commented on it several times. The story of the alleged brother also has no real-world equivalent. However, if a legend persists long enough, it can become real in a way. Mojang capitalized on the joke itself and integrated Herobrine elements into the game. While there are no spectral figures in solo rounds, you can give your character the head of Herobrine or even purchase his appearance in skin packs. Then, in multiplayer, Herobrine may indeed meet you.
Legendary Herobrine seed finally found in ‘Minecraft’
Herobrine’s story is familiar to many Minecraft fans as one that is meant to scare single player players when they least expect it. The legend originated in a 4chan post in 2010 and was catapulted to notoriety when Minecraft streamer Copelan shared images that “proved” the story was true.
Herobrine is assumed to be a character who spawns in single player mode, performing strange rituals such as digging tunnels and cutting leaves from trees. He is distinguishable from the default Minecraft Steve by his pupilless white eyes and strange movements. The creepypasta goes on to speculate that this is Minecraft creator Notch’s dead brother.
