The Nightmare

Frederick Krueger was burned alive by the parents of Springwood, and came back in the one place they could not follow him. He chased Quentin Smith through Badham Preschool before the Entity found him, and Dream Demon still pulls survivors into that sleep.

The Ghost Face

Danny Johnson covered the Roseville murders for the local Gazette in Florida under the name Jed Olsen, having committed them himself, and left a note promising he was not finished. Night Shroud drops his terror radius to nothing, and I'm All Ears reads every rushed vault.

The Nurse

Sally Smithson spent two decades at Crotus Prenn Asylum, until a September morning that left over fifty patients and four staff members dead. Spencer's Last Breath blinks her through every wall on the map at the cost of her own footing, and A Nurse's Calling shows her each wound being tended.

Jonah Vasquez

Jonah Vasquez is a CIA codebreaker who was given a card of numbers for his sixteenth birthday that turned out to be coordinates to a Chilean graveyard. Overcome stretches a hit into a longer sprint, and Boon: Exponential gets his team off the ground.

Steve Harrington

Steve Harrington helped Dustin Henderson look after a Demogorgon called D'Artagnan, then drove to Hawkins National Laboratory on a call from Nancy and found nothing but her notebook. Babysitter and Camaraderie are exactly the role he ended up in.

Dead Sands

Dead Sands is the open desert of the Forsaken Boneyard, built around a killer shack and watched by stone sentinels. It is the ground where Carmina Mora's friends were murdered and where she lost her hands and her tongue.
