'''{{w|Eaton Township Weis Markets shooting|Randy Stair}}''' was a YouTuber who eventually became a mass shooter. Much like Chris, Randy believed in the existence of fictional characters and an alternate reality in which [[Messiah complex|he was worshipped as a God]], only his interests in [[OC|OCs]] were tied to the animated television series ''{{w|Danny Phantom}}''. Randy's escapist fantasies, however, were more unsettling in nature than just hoping to find a [[boyfriend-free girl]]: Randy's fictional counterpart and fantasy world involved his OCs – known as Ember's Ghost Squad – going on killing sprees with him after he took interest in [[Shout out to Fans in Hospital|the Columbine massacre]]. Eventually, Randy would act out his violent fantasies in real life and shot and killed three people at the supermarket that he worked at before committing suicide.
