How to make a station for Happy Ghast in Minecraft?

With Minecraft ’s Summer Game Drop, the Happy Ghast is stealing hearts and skies. Unlike its fiery Nether cousin, this mob is peaceful, and rideable. Yep, you can fly it with a harness. But here’s the catch: it’s huge (4x4 blocks), floaty, and tricky to handle in tight spaces. That’s why you need a Happy Ghast Station . A simple setup to mount, dismount, and store your ghast safely. Here’s a simple guide to making one.
Step 1: Choose the Right SpotStart by picking a high ledge or open sky space around your base. Happy Ghasts are huge—so they need room to hover and move. Avoid tight corners or cluttered rooftops. Ideally, you want something elevated but flat, with enough clearance for the ghast to float in and out smoothly.


Step 2: Build a Floating DockUse any solid block to make a floating landing platform—about 5x5 blocks is enough, but you can expand if you want room to move around. Place it at least 10 blocks above ground for smooth flying in and out. You can also use slabs or stairs to make a sleek upward path if you're not using Elytra or creative mode.
Step 3: Fence It SmartlyAdd fences on two or three sides of your platform. Leave the front side open so the Happy Ghast can approach and hover. The fences help prevent accidental falls and also give you a place to tie your ghast using a lead after dismounting.
Step 4: Add EssentialsPlace a chest or barrel on the platform. Keep it stocked with:

• Harnesses (to ride your Happy Ghast)
• Leads (to tether it)
• Snowballs (to lure it closer if needed)

Optional: Add a glowstone or torch for visibility at night.

Step 5: Test Your Takeoff & LandingBring your Happy Ghast over. Use a snowball if needed to guide it close. Once it’s hovering near the platform:

• Right-click to mount.
• Fly off into the sky like the majestic creature you are.

When returning:

• Glide in slowly.
• Dismount carefully onto the platform.
• Use the lead to tie the ghast to a fencepost.

Bonus Tip: Go Fancy (If You Want)Once you're used to the basic setup, you can get creative. Add Redstone lights, a roof for weather, or even automated ghast parking (yes, that’s possible with slime blocks and pistons if you're feeling fancy).

This Happy Ghast Station is simple, functional, and works like a charm. Perfect for players who want to make the most of their new airborne buddy without turning their base into a chaotic landing strip.
