Stranger Things Seasons 1-4: Recap

Season 1

The first season took place in 1983, Indiana where a small kid mysteriously vanished. Friends, relatives, and local police get involved in an extraordinary mystery that includes top-secret government experiments, scary supernatural forces, and one odd little girl as they look for answers.

Season 2

The next year, in 1984 in Hawkins, Indiana residents are still suffering from the Demogorgon’s horrors and Hawkins Lab secrets. Will Byers was saved from Upside Down, but those who have survived are still in grave danger from a larger, more deadly entity.

Season 3

It is 1985 and it is a scorching hot summer in Hawkins, Indiana. School is out and a new mall is now functional with romance blooming. However, things aren’t rosy for too long as new threats loom on the horizon. The bottom line is evil doesn’t die, it just adapts and one summer can change everything.

Season 4

At the end of season four Hawkins’s crew reunited and defeated Vecna from different corners and dimensions of the world. While they defeated him, he survived and went into hiding. The group then split up and looked down at their home as the villain’s final chapter started taking its first steps.

Stranger Things Season 5: Expected Plotline

Stranger Things Season five will see a time jump of one year after season four, which is important for various reasons. Vecna is still out there and elements of Upside Down and still spilling into Hawkins. How the final showdown happens and what will be the character’s fate still remain a mystery.
