Stranger Things: The First Shadow

calendar_month

Mar 28, 2025 - Ongoing

Description

Long before Will Byers disappeared on the Netflix sensation Stranger Things, there was a group of teenagers in Hawkins, Indiana, in 1959—including Jim Hopper, Joyce Maldonado, Dr. Brenner and Henry Creel—who led ordinary lives. This prequel tells of all the events of the town leading up to the Stranger Things story and the discovery of the Upside Down. It may even hold the key to the story’s end.
