Shop the Black-owned brands Luka Sabbat wore for his In The Know cover:
Netflix dropped season four of the hit series, and it’s totally horror-themed. That means you can be sure this hilarious trend has a tinge of ominousness. If you don’t follow the show, you may not understand why TikTokers on your FYP are acting like they see things that aren’t actually there. Here’s everything you need to know about the viral Stranger Things trend. Minimal spoilers ahead.
Where does the grandfather clock sound come from on TikTok?
The trend uses the sound of a ticking grandfather clock pulled from the series. When a character hears the clock, it means they’re about to die a gruesome death at the hands of the season’s villain Vecna. Headaches and hallucinating clocks are other signs that Vecna is coming.
