Stranger Things
It’s close to midnight and something evil’s lurking in the dark…
Yes, we’re back in Hawkins once again for the second season of Stranger Things. The nostalgic Netflix series became a mega-hit when it arrived last year, and thankfully, this trailer convinces us that the mix of 80s culture and sci-fi/horror that we loved the first time around will be present and correct in season 2.
With the perfect song choice of Michael Jackson’s “Thriller” playing over the top (can Vincent Price narrate every episode?), the trailer teases some troubled times for Will Byers lying ahead as his experience in the Upside-Down comes back to haunt him. Brilliantly, it looks like the gang will get to play Ghostbusters for real, while Eleven is going to find her way back to our world – shocker! – but is everything as it seems?
We’ll find out when Stranger Things season 2 lands on Netflix this Halloween.
