Glow Cloud (All Hail)

"All hail the mighty Glow Cloud."

First spotted by John Peters, in episode two, the Glow Cloud is a cloud which made a sudden entrance to Night Vale from the west. It glows in a variety of colors and emits a low, whistling noise. The Sheriff's Secret Police initially recommended that citizens "run directly at the cloud, shrieking and waving your arms just to see what it does." This advice is ultimately unwise, as it is later revealed that the cloud rains down various small creatures such as lizards and crows, all of which appear to already be dead. It also leaves all recordings of its effects blank and smelling faintly of vanilla.

The Glow Cloud proceeded to double in size and cover the entirety of Night Vale before finally moving on toward the east until it was just a small spot in the distance. Later, it returned to Night Vale and joined the school board (eventually becoming its president) after determining that Night Vale was the ideal place to raise its offspring.

It may also pitch in for community endeavours, as a large glowing cloud was seen helping in the hunt for You as documented in A Story About You.
