#sterpstaticnight

EVENT OVERVIEW

“The Static Night” brings:

Town‑wide power fluctuations

Strange lights over the woods

People gathering outside, confused and curious

Kids biking around trying to figure out what’s happening

Adults blaming the power company

Pets acting weird, staring at corners or refusing to go outside

A sense that Hawkins is holding its breath

ECHO TWISTS

White Noise Whispers: Static on TVs and radios forms faint voices, familiar, unfamiliar, or impossible.

Shadow Lag: Characters’ shadows move a fraction of a second slower than they do.

Echo Reflections: Mirrors show a room that isn’t quite the one you’re in, different wallpaper, different decade, someone standing behind you who isn’t really there.

Lost Time: Watches and clocks skip a minute forward, then backward, then freeze.

The Hum: A low vibration in the air that only certain characters can hear, like a distant engine or a heartbeat.

Flicker Figures: When the lights blink, silhouettes appear for a split second, tall, short, childlike, monstrous, or familiar.

EVENT LOCATIONS

Main Street Blackout: Storefronts dim, neon signs flicker, people gather outside trying to figure out what’s going on.

Forest Edge: The woods glow faintly with shifting light, blue, purple, white, like lightning trapped between the trees.

The Hideout: The band keeps playing even as the amps glitch, creating warped, echoing music that feels like it’s coming from underwater.

Lover’s Lake: The surface ripples even without wind. Reflections look wrong, too sharp, too dark, too alive.

Neighborhood Streets: Kids on bikes, adults with flashlights, porch lights flickering, dogs barking at nothing.
