With the launch of the Night Springs Expansion in Alan Wake 2, players are trying the different episodes to witness unique and bizarre what-if scenarios. These scenarios are not related to the main story of the game. There are three episodes, each with a different playable character from the world of Alan Wake and Remedy itself.
In Episode 2: North Star, players take control of Jesse Faden from Federal Bureau of Control, who is referred to as The Sibling. Inside the dark and eerie Coffee World, players can come across Stashes that appear to be locked, but can be opened by solving a simple puzzle. Here's where to find them all, and how to open them.

North Star is the second episode of the Night Springs DLC for Alan Wake 2, and here is how you can complete it.
Where To Find All The Stashes
There are six Stashes in Night Springs, similar to the ones in the base game. These stashes are not far from the light checkpoint where Sheriff Tim Breaker is sitting. The table below shows the locations of all the stashes.

Alan Wake 2 Review
Alan Wake 2 has incredible graphics and some memorable moments, but it's dragged down by technical issues and tedious gameplay.
How To Solve The Stashes & What's Inside
The hard part is finding the stashes inside Coffee World. Once you find one, you can interact with it by pressing the button prompt. You will see a random sequence displayed on your screen. By performing the same sequence again perfectly, you will open the stash. As you collect more stashes, the sequence gets harder, but you can always retry or check the sequence again if you find yourself stuck.
Once a stash is opened, you will find Handgun ammo for your weapon, a Battery Pack, and a Trauma Pad that you can stock up on and use while fighting the group of Takens.
