The Eriksen Household is a location in The Awesome Adventures of Captain Spirit and Episode 2 of Life is Strange 2. It is the home of Charles Eriksen and Chris Eriksen.

The house consists of Chris' room, Charles' room, a living room, kitchen area, bathroom and a yard. A garage is situated near to the house.

Background[]

Chris's mother, Emily Eriksen was most likely never present in this house; Charles and Chris moved here after Charles was unable to fulfill the mortgage payments on their first house as detailed in a letter in Charles's wardrobe. The letter, addressed to both Charles and Emily was sent on the 6th December 2015, just under a year after Emily's death. Charles's expenditures on Emily's funeral and investigations, combined with his drinking and job loss led to the foreclosure on their original house.

As a result, they moved to the other side of town away from Chris's friends. Many of Emily's possessions were not moved into the house, and are kept in the garage in boxes.

Captain Spirit[]

Chris spends his time around the house completing activities while helping his father with some chores. Once Chris finishes all activities and/or wakes his father from a drunken snooze, his father becomes angry and blames Chris for his mother's death, resulting in Chris running of the house, tearful and upset.

Life is Strange 2[]

Episode Two - "Episode 2: Rules"[]

The house is seen again when Daniel Diaz uses his power to stop Chris being hurt as he falls from his tree house. The next day, Daniel visits the house to play with Chris, and Daniel's brother follows shortly after. After the two brothers spend time with Chris, they leave the house with Charles to buy a Christmas tree at the market.
