When watching cats I tried to tame with fish run away, never looking back, I got an idea that could make other mobs like zombies and creepers cower away from you too. I thought of making a potion that you can throw at mobs that makes them sprint away in fear. And when you ingest it or a player does, the screen goes a little wobbly (like the Nether portal) and you have an overlay like when under lava. Also all the players around you are on fire, and it makes players uncontrollably run away from all players or mobs.
I think you could brew it with some rotten flesh, from scary zombies, or spider an ender pearl. Either one could be good.
EDIT: Another idea for player effects instead of just making them run away. Instead of that, imaginary mobs will spawn randomly and chase after you, they don't do damage, but when they make contact with you the effects of the potion are extended, making players want to avoid the imaginary monsters. Great for distracting (thanks to spiralz for inspiration)
Okay, yes, enough self promotion. You just said for them to run around. I, unlike you, said they run away. And when a player takes it, why would they become confused? It's fear, they run away. Frankly mine was better LOL no offense.
I was thinking that a fear potion could make players see evil mobs that aren't there and that do no damage, like a hallucination of sorts
Well, I thought of that when thinking of player effects, but I then realized players would get used to it and pretty much ignore the imaginary mobs anyway, since they don't hurt you. Or, maybe even better, if the imaginary mobs touch you, the effects of the potion are extended, and it makes players want to avoid them, even though they don't do damage haha.

Because the essence of fear IS confusion,
Haven't you ever watched a scary movie, than tried to go to bed, and then you heard a thud,
It could be a monster, or it could be the cat,
Do you go and check? Or stay in the saftey of your room?
And if you stay in your room will the monster know to find you there?
And if you leave. Will it ponce?
What if the cat has knocked over the tv?
ect,
Your brain becomes overloaded, confused at that sudden sense of unexplainable fear,
And then primal thought comes in. and you run like hell, In circles, Because you are to scared to know what way to run.
You become confused, and frightend,
Also, how Is one little link self promotion, And the fact that this was JUST posted about ten minutes after mine is a real bout of Whodunnit in my mind,
And yes, I did take offense.
