What Is ‘Stranger Things’ Upside Down?
We’re approaching the season finale of Stranger Things Season 4, and we’re hoping to finally get a full explanation of what the Upside Down is and how it works. How is it connected to Hawkins? How is it connected to One? Why is it so powerful? And what are the various levels of the Upside Down and how do they all relate to one another?
That’s the subject of our latest Stranger Things video, which digs into the Upside Down and reveals just how it works and how it came into being. And we do it all with ... an onion? (Layers, baby. Layers. Trust us; it’ll make sense when you watch it.)
We also give our theory as to the origin of One and Eleven’s powers, and how things will come to a head in Volume 2 of Stranger Things Season 4. Watch it all below:
