Ghost blocks are one of Minecraft's most persistent annoyances — you break a block, but it snaps back into existence, or worse, you fall through a floor that isn't really there. AntiGhost Mod by Giselbaer solves this with a simple approach: it requests the server to resend the blocks around you, instantly clearing any desynced or invisible blocks from your client. With over 3.7 million downloads and active development since 2020, it's become a staple utility mod for both casual players and server regulars who are tired of reconnecting just to fix a phantom block.
Key Features
- Automatic ghost block removal — Requests the server to resend all blocks surrounding your player, fixing invisible or desynced blocks without needing to relog or break anything manually.
- Smart block refresh — Identifies ghost blocks in your vicinity and refreshes them on the fly, so you can keep building or mining without interruption.
- Dual mod loader support — Available for both Forge and Fabric, covering the two most popular modding ecosystems across a wide range of Minecraft versions.

FAQ
What are ghost blocks in Minecraft and why do they appear?
Ghost blocks occur when your client and the server disagree about which blocks exist at a location. This commonly happens during fast mining, lag spikes, or network hiccups — you see a block that the server already removed, or vice versa. AntiGhost Mod fixes this by requesting the server to resend the correct block data around you.
Does AntiGhost Mod work on multiplayer servers?
Yes, it is a client-side mod that communicates with the server to refresh block data. It works on multiplayer servers without requiring the server to have the mod installed, since it uses standard block request packets.
Can I use AntiGhost Mod alongside other utility mods?
AntiGhost is designed as a lightweight, single-purpose utility and is generally compatible with other mods. Since it only handles block refresh requests, it should not conflict with most other Forge or Fabric mods in your setup.
