Abigail Effect

A phenomenon where flashing lights in public spaces—such as streetlamps, traffic signals, or neon signs—malfunction in an erratic or eerie manner, often without a clear cause. Named after the girl who first decided to document the pattern and brought attention to its strange consistency.
"The lights outside the old train station kept flickering all night. Total Abigail Effect."
