A ghast is a hostile mob. The termÂ mobÂ is short forÂ mobileÂ and is used to refer to all living, moving creatures in the game such as chickens, creepers, and ghasts. Because a ghast is a hostile mob, it will attack you in Survival mode but not Creative mode.

Health Points

In Minecraft, a ghast has 5 hearts Ghast Mob - Wiki Guide 5

Â for health. This gives a ghast 10 health points (because 1 heart = 2 health points). To kill a ghast, you need to inflict 10 points of damage to the ghast.

Where to Find Ghasts

In Minecraft, you can find ghasts in theÂ Nether.

Make sure you pick up any dropped items before they disappear. They are useful and should be kept in your inventory to be used later.
