A Stalker Fan. This movement truly begun when bts became worldwide. although the term has been around for awhile it has only recently become a popular term. Typically the people who stan come off as creepy. Such as hounding over either a figure of importance in media or political standing. Most stans would go to any lengths for said person which gives off a unhealthy and borderline insane vibe.

Stans are super crazy fans that like everything about that particular person. Some stans won't listen to any opinion you have or JUST straight up facts.
Stan: Did you hear Taylor Swift's new album! It was amazing!
Person: Eh, I did... it was ok
Stan: UM ok!? No, it was amazing! She outsold all of your faves
Person: Oh so selling equals talent now? She is an average singer with a nice tone but she isn't a Beyonce or Christina
Stan: Whatever
