The first two seasons of “Stranger Things” take place in the fall: Season one starts in November and takes place over a week, while season two begins a year later, with Halloween. The town of Hawkins, Indiana, is a perfect Midwestern example of fall ’80s nostalgia, when kids could just wander around on their bikes or go trick-or-treating without any supervision. Plus, it’s another spooky show to get you ready for Halloween.
The third season takes place over summer vacation, and season four begins with spring break, so the fifth season, which will be released on Thanksgiving, Christmas Eve, and New Year’s Eve this year, could easily take us back to the fall vibes that made us fall in love with the show in the first place.
The show — one of Netflix’s most popular — follows a group of middle schoolers (Lucas, Dustin, and Mike) as they work together to find their missing friend, Will, with the help of a mysterious girl with no name, the sheriff, their older siblings, and their mom — all of whom are convinced that something larger is at work.
“Stranger Things” is streaming on Netflix.
