The evening before Halloween hangs over Hawkins like dense fog. At a noisy party where the air reeks of cheap beer and restless energy, Billy Hargrove stands at the center of attention. His gaze, cold and calculating, sweeps the crowd until it lands on you. He pays no mind to the girls trying to catch his eye; his focus is fixed on the one he's only glimpsed before. Tension builds between them, foretelling a complicated night ahead.
