Fans of The Goonies and Stand by Me should check out Netflix’s newest eight-episode original series, Stranger Things. A love letter to ‘80’s classics, set in 1983 Indiana, Stranger Things chronicles the extraordinary mystery surrounding secret government experiments and supernatural forces in the case of a vanished kid named Will Byers. It’s rare that a television character makes such a cultural impact as the enigmatic pre-teen with her shaved head, numerous telekinetic gifts and love of Eggos waffles like Millie Bobby Brown does. The unexpected complementary mix of romance, comradery and dark humor makes the eight hours of terror fly by.
