Eleven's a Perfect 10 - Stranger Things Have Happened But Don't Know When!

(CONTAINS SPOILERS)

Thirty-three years ago...

NOVEMBER 6, 1983,

in the town of Hawkins, Indiana,

12-year-old Will Byers

mysteriously vanished.

STRANGER THINGS

were about to happen!

Meet the main characters in this drama
and listen to the songs that formed the
soundtrack of their lives as these
fantastic events unfolded.

I'm Joyce Byers, Will's frantic mother
on Stranger Things, the smash hit
sci-fi/horror series on Netflix.

I've tried everything I can think of to
find Will. I even resorted to chanting
"Beetlejuice Beetlejuice Beetlejuice."

Where there's a Will... there's a way.

This I swear to you. Whoever or whatever

took my son is axing for trouble. Chief

Hopper and I have buried the hatchet

and together we're gonna bury it

in that monster's skull!

I'm Chief Jim Hopper of the

Hawkins Police Department.

Mornings are for coffee and contemplation.

Then comes Miller time. That's right, folks.

I drink a lot, smoke a lot and sleep with

every woman in town. Yep... I'm your
typical 80s hero... uniquely qualified to

battle a creature from a parallel universe.

I'm Mike Wheeler, one of Will's friends.

I have a secret friend hidden in my house -

a girl named Eleven - "El" for short. She's

gonna help us find Will. El's kinda quiet

and all she ever eats are Eggos, lots of 'em.

 Her head is shaved and she doesn't really

look like a girl. Even so, I kinda like her,

but not in that mushy, gushy, gooey way.

"One Thing Leads
To Another"

The Fixx

(Oct. & Nov. 1983, highest chart

pos. #4 Hot 100/#1 Canada)

I'm Nancy Wheeler, Mike's older sister

and Steve Harrington's girlfriend.

Although I'm dating Steve, who's in with

the "in" crowd, I am strangely attracted

to Jonathan, a quiet outsider.

I'm a good girl but, when the chips are down,

I'm badass as they come. Now grab the bear trap.

It's open season on monsters from other dimensions.

I'm Jonathan Byers, Joyce's son

and Will's older brother.

I have a crush on Nancy Wheeler, but her heart

belongs to Mr. Popularity, Steve Harrington.

I don't know what she sees in him, but I wish

she was seein' me. I just heard a song on

the radio and it reminded me of Nancy.

"Uptown Girl" 

Billy Joel

(Oct. to Dec. 1983, highest chart pos.

#3 Hot 100/#1 UK, Scotland, Ireland)

I'm Steve Harrington, big man on campus

and Nancy Wheeler's boyfriend.

Nancy is out of my league and I know it.

She's a good girl, too good for a spoiled,
Shallow Hal like me, but I'll do whatever
it takes to keep her with me and away
from that weirdo Byers dude. I just
need to work on my rap a little.

"Tell Her About It"

Billy Joel

(Sept. to Nov. 1983, highest chart pos.

Oh my god oh my god
oh my god oh my god!

I'm Dustin Henderson, another of Will's
friends. El has awesome superpowers
and, on top of that, she's crazy. If you
make her mad she can squeeze your
bladder with her mind, make you
pee your pants and send you
home crying to mommy.

"Ain't Nobody"

Rufus and Chaka Khan

(Nov. & Dec. 1983, highest chart pos.

#11 U.S. Hot Dance/Electronic Songs,

#2 UK, #1 in 8 other countries)

I'm Lucas, a third friend of Will's.

Mike and Dustin say Eleven's our friend,

but I think she's the enemy. I don't trust

her any farther than I could throw her

uphill against a 50 mph wind, which

is exactly how far she threw me

the other day using her mind!

My name is Eleven, the friend that Mike,

Dustin and Lucas have been telling you about.

I'm the monster that ate Mike's heart and

the breakout star of Stranger Things.

This is my sad face (above).

This is my happy face.

This is my superpower death stare.

As you can see, I have single-handedly

elevated wooden acting to an art form.

Friends don't lie. I don't smile.

"The Safety Dance" 

Men Without Hats

Eleven back with you again.

I'm all smiles now because I sense

that you enjoyed the show.
