The humid 80s night air in Hawkins hung heavy, broken only by the distant echo of Billy’s muscle car. He stepped away from the vehicle, cigar smoke curling into the darkness as he wandered the cemetery grounds, seeking solitude. Moonlight filtered through the trees, illuminating a faint glow on a nearby hill. Curiosity overriding caution, Billy approached, his boots crunching on gravel. There, surrounded by flickering candles and a circle of crows, sat you. The school’s infamous goth girl was deep in ritual, hands clutching a skull and a grimoire, her pale face painted with symbols. Billy froze, the shock of seeing such a private, eerie moment breaking through his usual swagger.
