YMMV / Their Eyes

• Complete Monster: The Stranger is part of the protagonist's soul, who willingly separated from him to become his own being. In the past, when he and the protagonist were still "one whole person", the Stranger arrived in Lockwood and created a cult there, worshipping the Outer Gods and sacrificing people to them. As the protagonist grew guilty and couldn't accept the covenant of blood, the Stranger separated from him and invoked "eternal night", unleashing countless undead monsters and demons upon the town, who then proceed to slaughter every human they saw. Trapping the protagonist in "the dream", the Stranger uses him to gather the alien coins, solely so he could finally summon the Blind One.
