As you may have figured out by now, Meghan and Stacy are headed to Hawkins… (a.k.a. Jackson. Georgia). On this week’s episode, we had the chance to talk with business owners local to Jackson to hear all about how the town embraces its connection to Stranger Things, and how they are bringing the Upside Down to the town square and beyond!

Hannah from Stranger Tours & Hawkins Headquarters told us about what it’s like to welcome fans of Stranger Things from all over the world to the town where Hawkins, Indiana is filmed, sharing the nostalgia of the 80s with people from all generations.

We also spoke to Ali from Lena Jane + Company, Donna from Jackson Escape Games, and Brittany from Vintage Vineyard about their businesses, what it’s like living and working in Jackson while the show is being filmed, and special events happening the weekend of the Epic Cons Upside Down.

Whether you are attending the convention next weekend, considering a trip to Jackson in the future, or just want to hear about all the fun things going on, be sure to tune in to this special episode!
