This article contains spoilers for Yellowjackets season 3.
Yellowjacketsbecame one of the most talked-about shows in 2025 while season 3 was airing, and a fan recently built a pit trap from the show inMinecraft. Mojang Studios’ sandbox game continues to be one of the most popular expanses to build in, and theYellowjacketspit is not the first pop-culture reference to appear inMinecraft.Lord of the Ringsfans have recreated Middle-earth in the game, for example, as the possibilities are endless thanks to the title’s tools and materials.
Yellowjacketsis a supernatural thriller created by Ashley Lyle and Bart Nickerson, following a girls' soccer team stranded in the wilderness after a plane crash, and there are several othershows with a similar vibe toYellowjackets. First premiering in 2021, the ensemble cast features Christina Ricci ofWednesdayfame, Ella Purnell fromFalloutandArcane, andHereticandCompanionstar Sophie Thatcher, alongside veteran actors Melanie Lynskey, Juliette Lewis, and Lauren Ambrose. The show’s main mystery stems from the eerie wilderness, which often drives the teens into a primitive state, resulting in barbaric traps such as the pit being made.
Posted on TikTok by gabriels_edits, aYellowjacketsfan shared a tutorial video on how to build the “Pit Girl Trap,” similar to anotherMinecraftplayer who built a trap to prank their friend. The video shows a pig wandering in the wild before falling into a square pit complete with wooden spikes at the bottom, and the pit is significant inYellowjacketsbecause of the mystery surrounding the pit girl’s identity. However, the season 3 finale revealed Mari to be the one who was the latest victim of the hunt and met her end falling to her spikey doom.
Minecraft Player Builds Pit Trap From Yellowjackets
With terrifying traps like the pit lurking in the voxel plains,Minecraftplayers will want all the tips and tricks to survive the hardcore world. Yet, creators immediately inquired how to build specific elements, like placing the carpet and building the sign. Additionally, fans were convinced theMinecrafttrap was made by Travis, theYellowjacketscharacter that built the trap originally meant for Lottie, and that he had started a YouTube channel.
The Showtime series, featuring adult survivors Shauna, Taissa, Van, Misty, et al. (obviously missing adult Mari), concluded its season-3 run recently, but a fourth season has yet to be green-lit. Fans were hopingYellowjacketswould receive an early renewallike before when season 3 was given the go-ahead months before the season 2 premiere, but thankfully, the writers still have plenty to say should Showtime announce its renewal. The showrunners had previously teased that viewers would see the girls reintegrate into normal life after being rescued, and consistent viewership bodes well for the show’s season 4 return.
