I have a nice hardcore world going on with a great brick house with an attic and basement. I came downstairs to find an enderman had teleported into my basement. I was not amused, but I couldn't do anything because I had no armor, and I wasn't about to take on an enderman unarmed.
Hide yo wife, hide yo kids, but break out a water bucket and watch that sucka teleport back out of your basement like a champ. Works almost every time on the first try.
I like to make a quick fort when I fight an enderman.
A 1x1x1x1 by 3 tall with a roof (The roof is important or the enderman will dance on your head).
Leave a open block for a window/agro/fighting space. The enderman will go agro and come to your fort, and you can fight safely from inside. You can beat an enderman without a sword or armor that way.
He did not teleport in, he only spawned there. The only time he teleports, is if you have looked at him. Also, then he would be aggressive, so you would be attacked instantly as you walked downstairs, into yo dirt house.
Not entirely true...if you are aboveground and engage an enderman during daylight, he will often teleport underground, usually to a cave but also your basement will do if it has 3+ block height.
He probably just spawned there, or teleported in. I have an enderman living with me, he teleports in my house often during the day or when it's raining lol. He re-arranged some of the blocks in my basement once, and i actually preferred it that way, so i finished up the job for him. :biggrin.gif:

That would be so dumb it might actually be funny...
