Welcome back to Kinfolklore, where Andrea and Paul dive deep into the fantasy and sci-fi worlds we love. Few shows capture that blend of nostalgia, terror, and friendship quite like Stranger Things.

This episode, we’re rewinding all the way back to Hawkins, Indiana, Fall 1985. The mall is packed, the fireworks are flying, and the monsters are multiplying. In preparation for the final season dropping this November, Andrea and Paul are rewatching every episode from the very beginning, continuing their coverage here with Season 3, Chapters 5-8
