[readmore]

Seen here is a screenshot of a new monster in the works for 1.8. While Notch didn't specify exactly what it was, it seems fairly apparent that this new arrival in Minecraft isn't especially friendly-looking. What is it? What can it do? We will keep you updated as this information becomes available!
Update - Thanks to Nyanners and KSMF, respectively, for the following two enhanced images!


Actually their passive UNTIL you look at them. But yes, weeping angels.

It is the new 'creepy' monster that Notch is adding
He talks in the link above about how he has worked to make the atmosphere of the world feel the right kind of creepy and I think he has done that perfectly with that monster
[SPOILERS] It can pick up blocks and move them around, then, when you look at it, it freezes completely still until you look away at which point its rushes FAST towards you and starts attacking. It can even teleport if it is too far way.
I'd say creepy has been achieved...
