Buckle up, everyone. This meme is taking us to the Upside Down. 

In the second season of Stranger Things, our favorite gang of Demagorgon fighters gets another glimpse of the mysterious Upside Down. Even though the new season premiered months ago, people have spent the past week creating elaborate mirror selfie videos paired with the Stranger Things theme song.

The Upside Down is coming to Universal Studios this fall and we’re so ready to be terrified

TwitterFacebook

Eleven, Will, and poor dearly departed Barb would probably advise against it – but if you’ve ever wanted to visit the Upside Down, you’ll get your chance this fall.

Universal Studios has announced a Stranger Things-themed maze for this year’s Halloween Horror Nights events. Designed in collaboration with Netflix and the executive producers of Stranger Things, the maze is modeled after the first season of the series.

That means those brave enough to enter will get to experience recreations of the Hawkins National Laboratory, the Byers home (Christmas lights and all), and, of course, the Upside Down, all while being stalked by a Demogorgon.  Read more…

‘Stranger Things’ star realizes dream of meeting a Kardashian

TwitterFacebook

No matter how good your Good Friday was, it probably paled in comparison to Stranger Things’ star Millie Bobby Brown’s own — when she finally met Kim Kardashian

Since being catapulted into stardom, the young Netflix star behind the character of Eleven has been adorably vocal about her love for all things Kardashian. She mimics their odd Kardashian-isms at every opportunity. She asked Khloé to shake her salads on Twitter. They even had a moment of mutual recognition after Brown declared her love on national television during her Jimmy Fallon show appearance last November. Read more…

‘Stranger Things’ fans rejoice: Dad Steve will be back in Season 3

TwitterFacebook

Stranger Things is heading back into production this month, and details on Season 3 are already giving us nostalgia for Season 2.

At PaleyFest in Los Angeles on March 25, executive producer Shawn Levy told The Hollywood Reporter that the most important storyline would thankfully make a return:

“Dad Steve magic” is one way of putting it. But perhaps the real magic is the daddiness of the whole season — at least if you ask David Harbour, the man behind Sheriff Hopper.’

But the real question remains: How much more dad dancing will there be in Season 3?  Read more…

Millie Bobby Brown comforts kid after no one shows up to his ‘Stranger Things’ themed birthday

TwitterFacebook

Throwing a party that people don’t show up to is pretty upsetting — but based on the response the little boy below received after his story was shared on the internet, it won’t be happening two years in a row.

On Sunday, Ayen Alambat tweeted photos from her little brother Aaron’s birthday party. 

“My brother invited 8 of his classmates for his Stranger Things themed bday party & none of their punk selves showed up,” she wrote.

Duffer Brothers accused of verbally abusing women on ‘Stranger Things’ set

TwitterFacebook

Until now, most of the #MeToo and Time’s Up stories have fallen into the category of sexual harassment, assault, rape, or pay inequity. But the latest allegations have broadened the scope to call out other abuses of power that make sets such hostile work environments for women.

Matt and Ross Duffer, creators and showrunners of  Stranger Things, have been accused of verbally abusing multiple women on the Netflix set — allegedly to the point where some were even driven to quit. A grip from Season 1, Peyton Brown, told her story in an Instagram post on Thursday celebrating International Women’s Day. Read more…

Stranger Things 2 premiered at the end of Oct. 2017, a little over a year after Season 1’s August 2016 debut. While Season 3 doesn’t yet have a premiere date – fingers crossed it’s before the end of the year and they don’t pull a Game of Thrones – having an episode count does help us manage expectations of how much story we’ll get and when.   Read more…

#JusticeForBarb, though yet to be fully realised, is still at the top of our minds. 

Perhaps also for Stranger Things star Shannon Purser, known to fans as the doomed Barb Holland, who received a strong and rather sneaky message of support from her barista on Wednesday.
