(Spoiler?) New early event, or bug? Or bugged event?

Had an event happen that crashed my game, not sure if the crash was intentional. Written description of it below, so don't like don't read dead pigeon inside etc etc. (Written spoilers is what I mean.)



Woke up in the middle of the night day 6, around 3:40 AM? Had the whole "I sense something..." text letting me know an event was happening. Figured it was the cart event and start poking around outside, didn't see anything but I heard a Source engine ambient noise, the kind of windy echo that plays a lot in Ravenholm and on zombie/horror maps in Gmod. My telescope just displayed the default pink checkerboard texture, but I think that was straight up a bug and not part of the event.
After a minute or two of looking around, my screen froze, and a bunch of weird digital artifacts scrolled across the screen, forming a grid of white lines that looked like GPU errors. Then, the Fatal Error window popped up and my game crashed.

Has anyone else encountered this event, and if so, did it crash for you in the same spot, or did I crash before the event finished?

sounds like the crasher, it looks like this but it might've showed up behind you
it plays a different ambience sound when it shows up, reminds me more of ambience from portal 1 than ravenholm but they could share the same ambience idk
it must've caught you from behind and caused the crash, this guy moves faster exponential to how far you get from him too

The sound effect is totally used in Portal 1, you're probably thinking of the right sound. Glad to know I got grabbed by the scary crasher, I didn't have enough ways to be paranoid in this game lol

this guy can possibly just show up at random, so that's fun
i'm not sure if it's simply another thing that only appears if you have the game on for a long time though

I'm pretty sure the ambience is shared. It's "tone_alley" I think

yes, this is most likely an event. Search on YouTube for “voices of the void black box” or “voices of the void black box crashing”

it isn't the black box, the black box doesn't cause any different ambience to play and it doesn't purposefully run into you, at least i don't think
