Redittors Found Out 10 Amazing Hidden Details In "Stranger Things"

So, keep scrolling down to discover 10 things about your favorite show that you probably didn't know!!!
#1 They Replayed A Sentimental Song
The song "We Can Be Heroes" was used as a throwback in the finale of season 3 to the 4th episode of season 1. It's quite emotional each time it's performed.
When Will's "body" is discovered, the first one is played, when Hopper's letter is read, the second one begins. The version being played is Peter Gabriel's slowed-down interpretation of David Bowie's "Heroes," with swelling strings and soulful vocals adding extra resonance to the already sad lyrics.
#2 There Were Hints In The Numbers
The series isn't bashful when it comes to mathematical Easter eggs, with characters named after numbers. While they are apart, Mike and Eleven keep track of how long it has been since they last saw each other.
People realized there was a connection between the number of their separation days counted. The number of days (353) adds up to 11, and Hopper and El communicate through radio channel 11. During season 2, Mike also utilizes channel 11 on his walkie-talkie to call El every night. Mike and Eleven's cute preteen relationship includes a few more lovely gestures like these hidden patterns.
#3 Characters' Clothes Also Hinted At Growing Up (Or Not)
The Stranger Things' kids grew up a lot in season three, with new relationships, growth spurts, and new hobbies. Will, on the other hand, seemed out of place in comparison to the rest of his buddies. It makes sense since he still wants to be a kid and play D&D all day, but he never had the chance because he spent much of his youth in season 2 in a hospital.
They also remarked that he appeared to be wearing the same clothing from Season 2 that was too small for him. This appeared to depict his stunted development as a result of his terrible experiences in the Upside Down.
#4 Hopper Kept His Daughter's Old Books
The book looked to be Anne of Green Gables, and sharing the narrative with Eleven was a key step towards bringing her into his heart, according to everyone.
#5 Mike And Eleven's Bedrooms Shared This Detail
Eleven's first bedroom in Mike's basement and her lover must have realized she needed a bit of him to feel at home at Hopper's, so he gave her this thoughtful present. Stranger Things season 4 is expected to include great content for Mike and Eleven, despite the fact that they are on opposite sides of the nation by the end of season 3.
#6 There Are Subtle Costume Details
Joyce made the outfit in an earlier episode, and the prior writer admired the depiction of a less well-off family being resourceful during the expensive holiday season. Stranger Things may deal with otherworldly difficulties in each episode, but it also offers societal commentary on the characters' troubles.
#7 Hopper's Life Was More Complicated Than Viewers May Know
El's regulated usage of the Colt 723 on semi-auto only, and, of course, the pretty evident signs of poorly-treated PTSI that we witness throughout (although this also has a lot to do with his daughter's murder) are all visible throughout. Though Hopper has likely experienced more trauma since meeting Joyce and the kids, having a strong support system again may have ultimately allowed him to recover.
#8 An Earlier Season Hinted At Season 2' Poster
The film in question is a fantasy-esque feature that was released in 1982. Aside from providing relevant pop cultural information for a program set in the same decade, Netflix might have been covertly marketing The Dark Crystal: Age of Resistance, a prequel series due in 2019.
#9 The Answer To How Hopper Survived
#10 Bob Dropped Plenty Of Film References
Bob's phobia of clowns and the balloon debate are both extremely IT-related timeframes. If Bob had died in 1984, he would have been unaware of Stephen King's 1986 thriller or the 1990 television series. Whether or not these references were made on purpose, Bob was always a hit with the fans.
