Becoming a Stalker in the Half-Life Universe is probably one of the worst things that could happen to a human, and over the wasteland, The Combine Empire created them and sent them to work in Combine controlled regions to work as mindless synths. For Halloween, I chose to look into the creepiest part of Half-Life - these unfortunate souls.
Who did The Combine chose to become a Stalker? What were they used for? and what physical transformation did they go through? In this video, I explore the lore and story behind the Stalkers in Half-Life.
