The Interference

The Interference is a common fan name for the static entity that first appeared in ECKVA12. It is one of the known BLOT sources.

Appearance
It has a humanoid figure, but is entirely covered in static, and has glowing eyes and teeth. The static shifts between multiple colors, with green, red, white, and black all being seen. Certain frames in ECKVA12 show it growing taller than the doorframe while sprouting tendrils that then quickly disappear, indicating that it does not have a stable shape. It also appears to keep its arms behind its back for an unknown reason.

Behavior
In ECKVA12, it waited for SHawkins to enter the abandoned house before repeatedly knocking twice in a row. In doing so, it lured SHawkins to one of the rooms in the back of the house, away from the door they entered through. As it continued to lure them, the noise its knocking created began to play a tone outside of the knocking. When SHawkins reached a specific spot in the house, they turned around and saw the Interference in front of the way out. It stood there for a second, with its shape fluctuating, before rushing to them to fill their field of view. What happened after that is unknown.

Later, in ECKVA13, it is seen writhing on the ground. It is unknown why. ECKVA16 showed it in the house once again, approaching a camera that was not visible to SHawkins when they were in the house.

ECKVA17 showed that sources were controlled by ARKlistener, which is under control of the Broadcaster, meaning that all of the Interference's actions were decided by the Broadcaster.

History
The Interference is one of the sources created by BLOT. Its true identity is unknown; the most likely contenders appear to be Andrew Raymond, Liz Steiner, or Danielle Scott. Birdwatcher and Shelby Hawkins have also been raised as possibilities; however, no answer has been confirmed yet.

Theories
A theory that some have had is that the Interference specifically possesses people to implant BLOT into them. In ECKVA13, a cartoon shows Quietbug being broken in half after touching the brightest light, resulting in an out-of-place face being seen behind it; this might be implying that the Interference inhabited SHawkins to spread BLOT to them. However, the same face appeared in the corner of the screen in ECKVA14, which may be evidence against this theory.
