Abstract: The mean Hawking flux does not determine how quantum stress fluctuations perturb a black-hole geometry. That information resides in field correlations, including vacuum contributions absent from the outgoing luminosity. Here we connect the complete exterior Unruh Wightman function to a finite-band stochastic reconstruction of Schwarzschild geometry. We retain the incoming vacuum and both outgoing frequency branches, form the connected stress covariance before angular projection, and propagate its monopole through a density-driven radial response. A shared Gaussian reconstruction then resolves how the value and derivative of the lapse control different geometric observables. For the specified covariance and noise amplitude, 2,200 realizations give relative widths of 0.0185 for the local horizon radius and 0.0483 for the surface-gravity temperature parameter, consistently across histograms and reconstruction checks. Covariance derivatives explain this unequal sensitivity. The construction separates the quantum-state input from the gravitational closure and spatial sampling assumptions, providing a reproducible finite-resolution description of how Hawking-field correlations affect horizon positions and surface-gravity statistics.
