Stranger things season 1

x It only took two seasons (and a truckload of Eggos) for Stranger Things to earn its status as both a Netflix staple and must-watch television. Inspired by some of the film greats of yesterday (and starring the stars of tomorrow), the 80s-set sci-fi show takes place in the quaint town of Hawkins, Indiana, which gets caught up in the middle of a government conspiracy after the local energy department begins experimenting with dark forces beyond their control. And so, the Upside Down was born. It’s a realm where sinister and evil things fester, and though Eleven and her friends were able to fend off the Shadow Monster and his pack of Demodogs during season 2, Stranger Things season 3 will be bringing us a whole new saga of thrills and supernatural spills when it premieres on July 4th.

Stranger Things season 3 story details are still locked up safe in the Upside Down, but a slip-up on IMDb might have just given away part of the game. While the following details are very vague, and just speculation at best, if you want to remain as spoiler-free as humanly possible, you might want to turn back now. The possible spoilers await you below. Watch out: the Russians are coming to Hawkins, Indiana. Maybe. Last month, a Reddit user noticed that IMDb listed several random cast members as Russian Guard, Russian Soldier, and so on. [Spoilers] IMDB,Season 3 from StrangerThings Soon after this was spotted, someone jumped onto IMDb and edited the descriptions, removing any trace of the word “Russian.” However, as the Inverse points out, whomever edited the IMDb page might have missed something. Specifically, Ryan Mari is listed on the show as a stunt performer playing a Russian Guard. Before we go any further, it’s worth noting that anyone can … [Read more...] about ‘Stranger Things’ Season 3 Story Details and Possible Villain Accidentally Revealed

x We thought the sole Demogorgon was pretty scary on its own back in season 1, but Stranger Things season 2 upped the level of threat considerably with the introduction of the Mind Flayer AKA the Shadow Monster – the enormous Cthulhu-like king of the Upside Down that commands an army of Demogorgons and Demodogs. The creature used Will Byers as a host throughout season 2 in order to strengthen the gate between worlds, allowing it to cross over and conquer our dimension. However, Eleven was able to close the gate, trapping it back in the Upside Down once again. The final shot of the finale reminded us though that the Mind Flayer was still out there, no doubt planning its next attempt to break free. We could infer from this that the Shadow Monster would be back but now we have it confirmed. The newly-released official companion to the show, Stranger Things: Worlds Turned Upside Down, features a passage in its epilogue that teases season 3 and promises it’s not done … [Read more...] about Stranger Things Season 3 Will Bring Back The Mind Flayer

x There’s a strong case to be made that Stranger Things is Netflix’s biggest sensation. The 80s nostalgia, supernatural storytelling and strong ensemble of characters are all important factors in its popularity, but Eleven’s definitely its biggest poster child. The telekinetic troubled teen’s the star in many ways, so it’s surprising to learn that she was initially set to be killed off after just one season. Creators the Duffer brothers spoke to NME recently and revealed that their original plans called for Millie Bobby Brown’s character to sacrifice herself at the end of the first run. However, when they started thinking about the future of the show, they reconsidered their options. “Eleven was going to sacrifice herself to save the day. That was always the end game. But once we realized that the show was potentially going to go on longer than one season, we needed to leave it more up in the air, because deep down we knew the show … [Read more...] about Stranger Things Season 1 Nearly Killed Off Eleven
