    About STRANGER THINGS: The First Shadow 

    Hawkings, Indiana, 1959 - before the world turned upside down…

    Hawkins is a small town with small problems, a young Jim Hopper struggles with a car that won’t start, Bob Newby's sister says no to his radio show, and all the while Joyce Maldonado dreams of leaving the town behind. 

    However, when Henry Creel arrives in Hawkins as a new student, his family discovers that starting over is far from simple, as the shadows of the past stretch far and wide in a town where they may be more than meets the eye.

    Set in the fictional town of Hawkins, Indiana in the 1980s Stranger Things premiered on Netflix in 2016.
