Now You Know - Stranger Things 4 - Episode 74

The highly anticipated fourth season of Stranger Things is set to release this Friday on Netflix. Created by the Duffer brothers, the sci-fi horror series is one of Netflix’s most popular shows across the globe. Eleven and her friends will reunite as a new threat emerges in Hawkins. So here as some lesser-known facts about Stranger Things. Let's begin

1. The star of the series, Millie Bobby Brown came into prominence after Stephen King praised her performance in the TV series Intruders on Twitter. Stranger Things is in fact inspired by several Stephen King novels. 
2. The third season of Stranger Things introduced the fan-favorite character Robin Buckley. The character is essayed by Maya Hawke, the daughter of Hollywood icons Ethan Hawke and Uma Thurman. 
3. The actors growing up too quickly as they entered their teen years always presented a problem for the showrunners as it would create inconsistencies in a particular season. In fact, in an interview with TODAY, actor Noah Schnapp was asked to lower the pitch of his voice and stand shorter while filming season 2.
4. British actor Joseph Quinn, who joins the fourth season as a new character named Eddie Munson, is modeled after 80s rockstars such as Slash from Guns N’ Roses and Bon Scott from AC/DC. The character Eddie Munson is an avid Dungeons & Dragons fan as well as a lead guitarist of a local rock band. 
5. Two other new characters that will play an integral role in the upcoming season are Argyle and Dmitri. Argyle is Jonathan Byers’ new best friend, while Dimitri is a prison guard in a Soviet Union prison who forms an unlikely alliance with David Habour’s character Jim Hopper who is imprisoned.  Eduardo Franco is known for his role in the Netflix comedy film The Package, Tom Wlaschiha is famous for essaying the Faceless Man Jaqen H'ghar in Game of Thrones.
6. The new terrifying monster in the fourth season of Stranger Things is called Vecna. Unlike the monsters in the previous seasons such as the Demogorgon, the Demodogs, and The Mind Flayer, Vecna stalks and communicates with his victims directly, targeting traumatized and vulnerable teens. However, like the other monsters, Vecna is a character from the board game Dungeons & Dragons, who was once a powerful wizard. 

The fourth season of Stranger Things is all set to drop this Friday on Netflix.
