“HOLD!” means everybody freeze and drop to one knee and raise your weapon over your head.
“HOLD!” is reserved for when something dangerous or potentially dangerous has happened (for example, someone gets hurt, a weapon becomes damaged and thus dangerous, a toddler runs into the field of battle, etc.)
“Weeping Angel!” means “Everyone look at me!” — because you stop a weeping angel by looking at it.
Use “Weeping Angel!” when you need everyone’s attention but the situation doesn’t warrant a “HOLD!” (for example, when the storyteller needs to move the story forward by providing additional information or directing the group to move to another area of the park)
Do not abuse the safety words!
When you hear a safety word called, you should obey it AND repeat it until everyone has heard it!
