Summon the Creaking

Spawn the Creaking mob outside the Pale Garden. Run: /summon creaking. Spawns a Creaking at your position — the Pale Garden's guardian that only moves when you're not looking at it. A command-summoned Creaking has no Creaking Heart linked to it, so unlike natural ones it can actually be killed by damage instead of being invulnerable. Works on Java 26.2 and Bedrock 26.32.
