Stranger Things is a scary, supernatural Netflix show set in the 1980s in the fictional town of Hawkins, Indiana. We can safely say that it's the world's least boring town, ever.

The epic story begins when a young boy called Will Byers disappears. His mother Joyce, Chief Jim Hopper, and his friends (Mike, Lucas and Dustin) must embark on a surreal, often terrifying adventure to get him from a weird other world called The Upside Down.

During their heroic adventure, they discover all is not what it seems in their quiet hometown and find out it’s actually a base for secret government experiments and a not-cute-at-all beast called the Demogorgon. 

On their way, they discover a girl called Eleven who has extraordinary abilities who helps them on their terrifying adventure. It turns out that she was kept at the Hawkins National Laboratory, because government officials were very keen to learn about her super psychokinetic powers. But things improved for her after she escaped and was adopted by Chief Hopper, who is very kind and used her birth name, Jane. They shared Hopper's log cabin in the woods and she begins to adapt to life as a regular teenage student in Hawkins. But the story doesn't stop there. It's barely begun!

The show has now four seasons – hopefully there'll be number five in the future – with each show better and more nail biting than the last. Along the way, you'll meet more Hawkins legends like Max, Jonathan, Nancy, Steve, Robin, Erica and poor Barb.

We won't give you any more details in case you've not caught up with this thrill-a-minute supernatural story. But if you're up-to-date and think you know even the tiniest details about this modern classic, then you'll definitely want to flex your trivia muscles in this Ultimate Stranger Things quiz.
