My first time encountering one of these was in the dark while i had a torch and i just saw this spider thing coming towards me and i felt my soul leave my body
Me and my sister found this randomly yesterday, while playing the game for the first time. We didn't realise it could move before I walked past it with a torch because we needed more firewood. It followed me back to the fire, and just kinda stayed, we call it Rosie.
The same thing happened to us but we were scared to find out what that thing was, so we tried to burn it, but when the fire went out we ran out of there, luckily our base was far
The first time I encountered a stagehand I was so freaked out that I abandoned my nearby camp and risked dying in winter to camp somewhere else far from it. I died ten days later because I was avoiding the stagehand all the time and had to take the longer way to find resources, starving myself slowly and wasting time. Then I learned that it does nothing beside scaring the shit out of you
When I first encountered a stagehand it was late at night (irl and in game) on one of my first few games. It was chasing me with a torch as a hound wave was starting and I was away from base. I thought “table” would be on my “frequently killed by” list.. was absolutely terrifying lmao
I always thought the stagehand was kind of adorable, following the fire like a lost puppy. Or maybe it was just interested in how to get rid of that darned thing that you were lighting it on fire with!
Yea its adorable but sometimes super annoying. Idiot me decided to put a chest near the fire pit and the stagehand was blocking it so I had to wait for like 2 days just to move it out of the way
Some days ago I played DST for the first time and met Stagehand right away. It looked creepy at day but when I was running around at night it scared the shit out of me. Game greeted me nicely
I wonder if the version of the stagehand in DST is a spy device or something like that for Charlie, since it is surrounded by roses and, you know, roses didn’t appear until Charlie became the ruler of the constant, and the hand that sweeps away the fire looks very similar to the hand that comes out of the survivors’s mouth when being attacked by Charlie
looks like I'm one of the lucky few who never found it crawling after me in the dark, lol. didn't even know it could do this. to be honest, i thought the tables were lore involved and i just hadn't gotten far enough into the fandom to know what they are. Maybe they DO have something to do with lore? I dunno. interesting either way though.
I had known about the stagehand since before playing DST solo but my first time encountering one was in the dark and it scared me so hard the back of my mouth was burning and I paused the game in terror. I was today years old when I found out it actually has legs which makes it infinitely more terrifying.
I remember my friends and I set up camp close to a stagehand and we got scared when we saw that the table wasn’t in the middle of the flowers but instead closer to our campfire
The worst thing about the stagehand is when you leave base to go somewhere at night and you come back to see it there And then when it wont go away and just becomes a nuisance taking up space at base
When I first started playing DST my friend wanted to scare me with the stagehand, he came running at me in the dark with SH close behind and I just kinda found it cute in a spooky way. I fell in love with it cause roses and scary cute are my weakness lol
I had a situation once where a stagehand followed me home and parked in front of a chest so I couldn't open the chest or even hammer the chest to break it. It caused such a hassle.
When I was new to the game, my friend told me that stagehands will oneshot you if you let it catch up to you, so until another friend of mine recently told me that wasn’t true, I always ran and stayed as far away from stagehands as possible xD.
I didn't know stage hand was harmless, my god i even trapped it surround it with stone wall. Scared me the f*ck out followed me to my base, i didn't know it was just following my light my god man. My heart beat like a truck.
I have never been more angry at a table than when I played dst with friends, had low sanity and saw a stagehand shamble out of the darkness. This thing SUCKS!
First time I encountered one it was just sitting at my camp, it must have followed me in the night back but I didn’t notice, I thought it was evil so I lured it away in the night in winter and quickly realised if you light it it’s basically a nighttime portable bonfire, it goes out in a second but if you spam light it, it creates enough heat to warm you up again, so I took him back and he stayed with me.
Every kill the fuelweaver with a table present? I mean... If Charlie is a stagehand, and her evil side is underground, maybe her good side above ground would helps you.
Okay so an experience that happened to me: Me and my friend were playing on a server together and we saw a stage Hand. Crap. Anyways we made a base far away from it and it still did come. We didnt care because why would we? We went to sleep and when woke up.. I kid you not it turned into the end table. I have no idea why it happened and i am still confused as ever.
6:00 this method for fighting may not be useful for most giants, but it is STRAIGHT GOLD when fighting Klaus himself. Trust me on this one, I’ve used this method countless times to fight him. Highly recommend.
Whenever I find stagehands, their either near paths or in a - bee field (??) And whenever I find it, I always take it back to my base There's something strangely beautiful about it to me
I started to play DST yesterday, and actually built my base pretty close of one of those creepy tables, it was really funny seeing it running right to the fire pit, tbh.
Playing this with my friend and she saw the stagehand first, had no idea what it was. When it got darn and she made fire there was just a lot of her screaming about how the table was walking towards her. 😂 We did some research and figured out it was the Stagehand but it freaks us out so much we try to stay away from it. Fast forward and I’m in the woods for the night (restarted in a new map) and when morning hits I continue my journey only to notice the stagehand sitting in the middle of the woods, not far from where I’d lit trees on fire the night before. We travel a little father down and find the ring of roses and I realize the stagehand was on it’s was to sneak up on me, had night been any longer it would’ve scared me. 😂😂😂
*Stagehand walks up to Wilson at night* Wilson (me): at least I have enough torches to last the night, so it can't get me... hopefully. *Stagehand continues to follow* Wilson: You know what, you may be important later on and I don't know if that's correct or not, but I'm gonna burn you. Go away. *Stagehand swipes off fire* wilson: u w0t m8-
First time I came across one, I joined a random server, no one greeted me and no one was at spawn. I see the stagehand at the corner of my field of vision and note how I should go back and investigate, then I see it running after me. It starts raining, my torch is burning out, the thing is right fucking behind me and I’m shitting myself. Then I die to Charlie. Scariest experience with this game so far.
the first time i saw this, i was so freaked out because it was accompanied by creepy music and me and the other guy i was with spent the whole night figuring out why this was following us and if it's going to kill us, now i know it's just there to scare
LOL This piece is near to my heart. I am an actual Stage Hand for live shows. We literally have to hide anywhere we can when working sometimes. The reason the stagehand might search for the light is because in any theater worth its salt there is a Ghost Light put up by the last hand to leave for the night. Depending on who you ask, there are different reasons for this. But the spirits of stage hands past will always head towards the light.......makes me wonder if at least 1 of the Dev's is/was a stage hand before...
Insight that I never knew I needed! You might be bang on the money because it's theorized that Charlie is under there keeping an eye on everything and she was working as an assistant for years!
It's VERY VERY RARE... Since you can play the game for some time without paying i looked into it and started a game.... I died on day 4 because of this table... Today i started a new world and day 10 i run into it again and just RUN bc idk what it exactly does... But yeah now i'm here :')
Somehow, every dedicated server always had one of these led to the portal It never failed when I booted up the game and join to see this thing 18 feet from spawn
the first time I saw the stagehand move I was like "w8 wut, why is this guy following me, what does it want" all calm like. I don't know how the HELL I managed to keep my cool in that situation xD
Don't worry folks who are inevitably going to ask about them after today, we will be talking boulders/fossils soon enough!
The Beard 777 a bit on meat
Can you make a guide on walls?
@@giraffeman326 How about the statues done on the potters wheels, cause aren't they a movable, and they are hard.
Ah, the Stagehand
The scariest but the least dangerous out of everything in Dont Starve
Indeed I hate those things and I hate them the most come night they also make my heart jump
Creepy yes but weirdly adorable.
I remember the video when creator of Pickle's First Person Mod tested it and got jumpscared by this shit.
i tried killing it after seeing it and thinking it may be Charlie's way of killing us without knowing
666 you satan
My first time encountering one of these was in the dark while i had a torch and i just saw this spider thing coming towards me and i felt my soul leave my body
Bring a change of clothes when lurking around this thing... 0_o
Same !!! 😂😂
😂
Its Not Dangerous, Actually.
Fucking same. I'm not THAT jumpy when playing games, but that one actually made me curse out loud. Fuck this thing lmao
Me and my sister found this randomly yesterday, while playing the game for the first time.
We didn't realise it could move before I walked past it with a torch because we needed more firewood.
It followed me back to the fire, and just kinda stayed, we call it Rosie.
God is dead
Aww its kinda cute & wierd
I mean it is kinda nice having it like a pet, especially considering how marvelous it looks as a decoration at base.
The same thing happened to us but we were scared to find out what that thing was, so we tried to burn it, but when the fire went out we ran out of there, luckily our base was far
Learning to live with something in games.
To eighty-six someone is old slang for murder. So, you're 'killing' the stage hand by hitting it 86 times with a hammer...
first time I saw it crawling towards me I just thought "KILL IT WITH FIRE!!!". and I did and so I did with the result of "NOTHING CAN STOP IT!!!"
same haahaha
I did the exact same thing

I always thought the stagehand was a part of Charlie so she could always keep an eye on you and your friends.
I like to think it's where she hides during the day
@@kulgydudemanyo but then why is she seeking light?
Maybe she is spying like that?
@@kulgydudemanyo she could also hide in the caves but i like the idea
wait it isnt?

it did its job but now you can keep it as a pet
No it burns your base
Right? I was worried it would put out my fire or something. Anything that slowly and steadily creeps towards my fire, I do not trust.

Same here! I really wanted to keep it in my base, but I was worried it could be hostile somehow. But now I'm going to keep it as a companion! :D
Me tooo
You guys are crazy hahaha I always thought it was super creepy. Maybe thats how people who dislike spiders feel about me
@@na2sosa I Hate Spiders, But The Spider Seems Really Nice And Don't Show Themselves. So Its Cool, I Like Em
I've gotta' agree. I never knew it followed 'fire' specifically. Always thought it was afraid of the dark, which I found adorable too. xD
Now that I know what the Stage Hand is and what it does Its actually really adorable. I want to boot up my game take one to my base
How is it adorable that thing looks terrifying Not judging just want to know what makes it adorable
Josiah Garza it’s like a friendly little spider
Yea its adorable but sometimes super annoying. Idiot me decided to put a chest near the fire pit and the stagehand was blocking it so I had to wait for like 2 days just to move it out of the way
@@cyborgjo2147 It's a little friend
@@alyxscentia9115 Couldn't you just rotate your camera with q and e to access your chest?
I love Walter's examination of the stagehand "maybe it wants to roast marshmallows too."
That's adorable. Walter is too pure for this world.
I love how every one’s first reaction when they get stalk by this guy is to burn it. cause holy shit, it is creepy at first
I saw it and ignored at night til it followed me. I then realized, damnit, it won't burn
So my friend lied. He told me that the stagehand will instantly kill me when i go near it
90% of the time someone TELLS you something instakills you they're lying. Now if they tell you it's completely safe it will probaly instakill you.
Me: Playing DST for the first time
Stagehand:walks out from the darkness
Me: [Confused Screaming]
i got freaked out and started screaming when saw it walking towards me
also love you beard
These things are what fuel our nightmares...
imagine if you could have a mini boss fight if you feed it 10 nightmare fuel...
@@TheTroll10 that sounds like something that should be a mod or a feature in the game
It scared the crap out of me the first time I saw it😂
You are not alone there!

I honestly think it's cute how he wants to stick close to you! It's like he wants some company after being alone
it wants to be around you cause its scared of the dark but it doesnt want you to notice it
Quite literally Mimikyu
looks like I'm one of the lucky few who never found it crawling after me in the dark, lol. didn't even know it could do this. to be honest, i thought the tables were lore involved and i just hadn't gotten far enough into the fandom to know what they are.

The stagehand, the thing that scared me the most in dst and can't kill me. The tune it plays is what i find most creepy
The worst thing about the stagehand is when you leave base to go somewhere at night and you come back to see it there
And then when it wont go away and just becomes a nuisance taking up space at base
The first time it followed me I was Webber so I love them.
Hey Beard, How about a quick guide on farming grasses and twigs with LurePlant. Thanks for the content btw.
Lureplant! Lureplant! LUREpLANT!
man, maybe he's just scared of the dark and cold.
I think it's pretty cute, I assumed it gave you a sanity boost like the glommer
When I first started playing DST my friend wanted to scare me with the stagehand, he came running at me in the dark with SH close behind and I just kinda found it cute in a spooky way. I fell in love with it cause roses and scary cute are my weakness lol
I love these things though because they’re super cute! I normally lead them to my camp just because they’re adorable.
I had a situation once where a stagehand followed me home and parked in front of a chest so I couldn't open the chest or even hammer the chest to break it. It caused such a hassle.
I’m so glad I saw this video before actually coming across a stagehand
Hey Beard, can you do an adventure mode/guide for solo don't starve? Thanks.
When I was new to the game, my friend told me that stagehands will oneshot you if you let it catch up to you, so until another friend of mine recently told me that wasn’t true, I always ran and stayed as far away from stagehands as possible xD.
Watching Wurt just going ham(mer) on that table is the cutest thing I've seen
I didn't know stage hand was harmless, my god i even trapped it surround it with stone wall. Scared me the f*ck out followed me to my base, i didn't know it was just following my light my god man. My heart beat like a truck.
No one:
Stagehands: 🌹🦟
I cant be the only one who knows all of the games mechanics but still watch these videos right?
I always stay til the very end. Catchy song, wall of thanks, comments. Well played.
In my experience, stagehands always spawn on forest turf, and they are always on the side of a road, though not explicitly the stone road
A guide over All of the set pieces
3:59 sneaky beard, hiding the chat so you can laugh at deerclops
i wasn't scared when i saw it for the first time, more just confused
One followed my friend to our base and now we have a pet
My conclusion: stagehands are the controlled by the rose that Fuelweaver turns into when he is killed.
I have never been more angry at a table than when I played dst with friends, had low sanity and saw a stagehand shamble out of the darkness. This thing SUCKS!
It also follows abigail's light home, last I experienced.
First time me and my friend saw one we couldnt do anything with it so we just assumed it was a thing only Maxwell could use
First time I encountered one it was just sitting at my camp, it must have followed me in the night back but I didn’t notice, I thought it was evil so I lured it away in the night in winter and quickly realised if you light it it’s basically a nighttime portable bonfire, it goes out in a second but if you spam light it, it creates enough heat to warm you up again, so I took him back and he stayed with me.
almost shit myself when i saw this thing for the first time
My first time seeing it I straight up left, was too scared the whole game and that did it
I was about to ask this! Oh my gosh! Thank you!
Perfect timing!
Every kill the fuelweaver with a table present? I mean... If Charlie is a stagehand, and her evil side is underground, maybe her good side above ground would helps you.
I always wondered what the deal with those were but never looked them up in the wiki for some reason. So thank you.
Happy to help!
Hey beard I've been watching and playing dont starve for a long time and I still dont grasp the idea of disease can you do video on it
Probably!
I just turn off disease and petrified Forest on all my games, really hate this mechanics in the game.
this thing scared the mega fuck out of me when i saw it stalking me at night for the first time
I heard that if you don't use fire in your base, stagehand can be useful during the summer to keep the fires dow
I saw this thing and I almost shit my pants cause I had a torch out and I could hear the music box esk sound it made when it walks around
I've always wonder what these were. Thank God it won't try to kill me in my sleep
Bruh i found this as wilson near a wormhole village i died of hunger i thought this was nothing
I thought the stage hand was where Charlie hid at day and they give you stage hand to leave there cover alone
first time I saw a stage hand move I screamed so loud my parents almost broke my door XD
It scared me so much when i saw it run in the dark for the first time XD
Okay so an experience that happened to me:

At night it follows a light source soooo

I feel bad for stagehand, it just wants to see the light of day but is unable to, it even gets's burnt and hammered! Poor guy.
I just started playing don't starve together earlier today and I had seen a the table not know what the hell it was.
I started to play DST yesterday, and actually built my base pretty close of one of those creepy tables, it was really funny seeing it running right to the fire pit, tbh.

Further facts!: the stagehand will always spawn near the ponds biome if you have one! Chester will always be near the stagehand as well so look out!
Not true at all but thanks anyways, friend! :D
Chester once spawned in the Oasis for me.
the first time i encounter it, it scared the hell out of me lmao, i literally find a worm hole and jumped to avoid it hahahahaha
