Warning: Spoilers This page or section contains unmarked spoilers from update 1.5 of Stardew Valley. Mobile players may want to avoid or be cautious toward reading this article.

Monsters are found in the Mines, the Skull Cavern, the Quarry Mine, the Mutant Bug Lair, and the Volcano Dungeon. When killed, Monsters have a chance to drop Monster Loot and a variety of items.

Monsters can be found at night on The Farm by choosing the wilderness map or on any map by offering a Strange Bun to the Dark Shrine of Night Terrors in the Witch's Hut or by choosing the Advanced Option "Spawn monsters on the farm" at new game creation. Monster on the Farm scales with the player's Combat level (at higher levels, more difficult monsters spawn, and the Wilderness Golem becomes more difficult to kill).

During "Danger In The Deep" quest or while the Shrine of Challenge is on, monsters in the Mines become more dangerous, with higer attack, health, defense and different sprite. Some monsters even get special ability. Similarly, monsters in Skull Cavern become more dangerous During "Skull Cavern Invasion" quest. Dangerous monsters is not available until the player unlocks it by entering Qi's Walnut Room on Ginger Island.
