Normally, when a series causes a sensation, it is not strange that others emerge that try to follow in its wake. Stranger Things It was a real revolution in this sense, since it laid the foundations for creating a truly interesting fantastic universe. while exploiting our inherent weakness for the eighties. Something purely generational, but combined with a very good plot and some characters that are easy to love, caused it to become the most watched series in Netflix history.

The similar series ‘Stranger Things’

It’s his birthday and Mark is waiting to find out what he’s going to get. What he did not expect is that on his sixteenth birthday, his brother Thomas was going to change his life forever.
