Location of the Murder(s): Hawkins, Indiana
Amount of Bodies: 18 (Polaroids found at each location)
Chief on the Case: Jim Hopper

It was the year of 1986, and the Hawkins Police Department had been called to many houses in the Hawkins area to a chain of murders, all done by a mysterious masked man who dressed like the Grim Reaper yet wore a mask that looked to be a screaming face, and on the bottoms of the many Polaroids read the name, "GhostFace", showing that was the alias of the masked assailant.

The chief of the Hawkins PD was horrified on how the victims were slaughtered, their throats were slit and their stomachs were slashed, there were no fingerprints on clothing or windows in the 18 homes, showing that the killer was smart enough to wear gloves.
"What are we gonna do.. it's not like we can identify this killed without knowing fingerprints or even a face! There's no live witnesses either to question!" Jim Hopper groaned, a look of anger filling his ocean blue eyes.

All evidence was searched, the Polaroids closely examined for any seeable details.. yet non were caught, as the assailant had their hair covered by their costume's long hood, soon the killer was given the nickname of "The Hawkins GhostStalker" as no one knew the killer's face, only the victims who saw their face once before they were killed, all victims were searched internally via autopsy, no drugs nor alcohol were found in the systems of 17 of the victims, only one was found with alcohol in their bloodstream.

Name of Victim 17: Jason Carver
Age: 17 years
Cause of Death: lacerated throat and abdomen

The body of the young male was found face first in the living room of a rented home, his face locked in an expression that was only seen in horror movies; a face locked in fear and shock, as he knew the face of his killer, yet who would never be identified only if this masked assailant was caught in the act of his 19th murder.

The explanation of why alcohol was found in Jason's bloodstream was because there was a house party as his basketball team, Hawkins High Basketball Team, had won a game against a rivalling high school, and it seemed when the party began to die down and people left, that's when the masked assailant chose to strike for his 17th victim, a drunk 18 year old male who could hardly throw a punch nor keep himself standing, the assailant knew when exactly to strike.


Though on the Polaroid found at the scene of Jason's murder, it read "He was deserving of this sooner - GhostStalker" did the assailant have a grudge against the Christian child, Jason Carver? And what exactly for, as what he was known for by his parents was that he was a 'golden child' and a perfect example of a young Christian boy, one of who never smoked or touched a single drop of alcohol, yet that was proven wrong on that night and the early morning of his autopsy.

The next few days many were questioned of the murders, including friends and family of the many victims who were only killed in one night alone, even the Munsons were questioned, which wasn't a surprise yet Eddie said he had known nothing of the murders, same said Wayne Munson, the biological uncle to Edward Munson.

Name of Possible Witness: Edward Anthony
Francis Munson (E.A.F.M)
Age: 21 years of age

Edward or 'Eddie' Munson, the only child of Rodrick Stewart Harmon, yet was raised by Wayne Munson when he had turned 8 years of age, was a known convict of crimes for example; theft, grand theft auto, possession of illegal substances etc.

Boyfriend of one of the Hopper Twins, Isaac 'Ike' Star Hopper while acquainted with the second Hopper Twin, Dean Ghost Hopper. He was also known heavily by Jim Hopper as he was primarily arrested by him even before he became a chief of the Hawkins Police Department.
