QuestionWhat do I do if I see an Enderman?Banana HeadTop AnswererIf he looked at you, and started shaking, get in a pond/lake/body of water. If no body of water is close, make a 2 block high shelter, and stand underneath it. Since Enderman are 3 blocks tall, they cannot reach you in a 2 block high shelter.

QuestionHow can I prevent Endermen from spawning in my house?Community AnswerEndermen hate water, so consider placing three lengths of water around your house. Make a bridge over the water so that you can get in and out. Also, use a glow stone inside your house instead of torches.

QuestionWhy do Endermen take blocks in normal world?Entity303Community AnswerNo one really knows, though there are theories. One of these theories is that Enderman were once normal humans, and the cure to return them back to humans is hidden underground. That is why they pick up blocks - to look under them for the cure. This also explains why they teleport - to cover more distance in their search. The reason they may want to be human again may be the fact that water hurts them, and they were so used to drinking water from when they were human. This theory also explains that Endermen are self-conscious, and think they are ugly as Endermen. That is also a reason why they want to be human. It is also why they attack you when you look at them.
