Q. Can you tame a phantom in Minecraft?

A phantom is a hostile mob. They cannot be tamed. You can trap one and call it a pet if you want, but it will not follow you and will despawn if you wander too far away.

Q. Do Phantoms attack villagers?

Phantoms will not attack villagers. Iron golems will attempt to attack any hostile mob that enters the village, but they are relatively ineffective at attacking flying mobs. Even though phantoms do not attack villagers, you can ring the bell found in a village to get the “Sound the Alarm” achievement if a phantom is nearby.

Q. Are Phantoms afraid of cats?

Phantoms will avoid getting within sixteen blocks of cats. This is probably due to how cats in real life will hunt down birds. In Bedrock edition, phantoms will also avoid ocelots.

Q. Can Phantoms go through walls?

Phantoms cannot go through walls. They can fly up through scaffolding but they cannot fly down through scaffolding. They cannot fly through any block that the player themselves cannot move through.
