Description "It's like there's two planes of reality trying to intersect at the same time..."



The creature known simply as 'The Upside Down' is another denizen of the terrifying realm known only to mortals as 'The Dark'. The Upside Down, as its name states, is only capable of interacting with our world upside down. This uncanny ability allows the creature to stalk above its prey, oftentimes unnoticed when in more open areas. As with most Primordial Horrors, the laws of reality do not apply particularly well to The Upside Down, allowing it to even utilize this form of traversal in areas with no roof. Like many inhabitants of The Dark, The Upside Down prefers to stalk and hunt younger prey as their fear is more potent and thus delicious.

Once prey in captured, The Upside Down will lift them towards its back, where a number of gnashing mouths will open in response. These mouths will then begin, in unison, to suck the emotions out of its prey, leaving them little more than a husk. Occasionally the creature will grant them a "mercy" by then consuming them, but this is not guaranteed. However, those viewed as threats to the creature's physical form or to its feeding will be chased down and torn apart. 

In 99, The Upside Down, like many creatures of The Dark, manages to find its way in from time to time, as the immense suffering and fear draws such creatures in like a beacon. It is a terrifying horror to face, and will remind survivors that sometimes it is necessary to look up.
