In 1984, Lucas's personality took much of a big change. He has come to accept the abnormal and what is different from others. Last year's events also seemed to have haunted Lucas such as when he explains it all to Max Mayfield, he feels those events happened yesterday and wished he wasn't serious about it. Lucas also became more open to others as he invited Max to join his circle of friends, told her of last year's events, and sympathized with her troubled family life. No matter what you're looking for in Stranger Things toys and collectibles, we've got the list you'll love with all of your favorites from America's spooky hometown, Hawkins Indiana. But all of the little niggles are easily overlooked as the nostalgia and Stranger Things theme totally wins the day. This is the kind of retro gift that adults are going to love just as much as the teens!!! The puzzle depicts all your favorite characters, along with a Demogorgon and a coded Christmas light message. The Stranger Things Netflix logo is on the bottom of the puzzle picture. When completely assembled, you’ll want to frame and hang the 21 by 15-inch collage of iconic Stranger Things characters and moments.

The worldwide phenomenon that it is, Stranger Things is a collective basket of awesomeness, ranging from its great special effects to its terrifying enemies. One of its most notable enemies, up until Vecna, was the Demogorgon; a fungal biped whose origins was unknown until the most recent season of Stranger Things. And because it is one of the series’ more significant villains, this figurine makes for an excellent addition to any Stranger Things toy collection. Haunted by Billy’s death, Max is going through a hard time as Stranger Things 4 opens. She has trouble communicating with her friends, especially Lucas, but she has found a way to console herself via Kate Bush’s “Running Up That Hill (A Deal With God),” the first single from her great 1985 album Hounds of Love. Though a much bigger hit in the U.K. than the U.S., the song helped solidify her fandom in the States among cool alternative kids like, well, Max, and its recent surge to the top of the iTunes chart suggests it could win her a whole new generation of fans. For the curious, Hounds of Love is a great starting point, but you really can’t go wrong with any of Bush’s albums. Since scoring her first No. 1 hit in the U.K. at the age of 19 with “Wuthering Heights,” Bush has determinedly done her own thing and expected listeners to follow. Sometimes that means waiting out long hiatuses. She remains active — and even performed her first concerts since the ’70s in 2014 — but hasn’t released an album of new material since 2011. Combine ham and pineapple and you have yourself a Hawaiian pizza, right? Only sort of. “Hawaiian” pizza can be traced to Greek-born Canadian pizza restauranteur Sotirios “Sam” Panopoulos, who drew inspiration from Chinese dishes that mixed fruit and meat. He applied that mixture to pizza in 1962 and it spread from there, making its way into pizza chains across the world in the decades that followed (and dividing pizza enthusiasts ever since).In the phone booth at Hawkins High, someone has scrawled the graffiti, “E.T., phone home!” This joke referencing the classic 1982 Spielberg film was probably already getting old in 1986. Star Wars

Suzie’s family home is filled with activity and screaming kids, including a pint-size aspiring filmmaker making a movie while wearing a pencil-thin mustache reminiscent of the kind favored by cult-favorite filmmaker John Waters. It’s a funny, if unlikely, influence to find its way into a family of devout Mormons, especially since Waters wouldn’t make anything resembling a family-friendly movie until Hairspray in 1988. One month later, on Christmas Eve, the four boys once again played Dungeons & Dragons. This time, Mike summoned the Thessalhydra, but his friends' characters triumphed over the enemy.

Nearly 48 hours later, Lucas was seen reading a story to Max until he received the visit of Mike, Will, Eleven, Nancy and Jonathan. Lucas embraced Mike, Will and Eleven, who tried to comfort him as they grieved over Max's current state. Sinclair admitted that the doctors were skeptical whether Max would ever wake up and believed it was a miracle she was still alive, despite her heart technically stopping for over a minute. Unbeknownst to him, Eleven had used her telekinesis to restart Max's heart. As Eleven held Max's hand, she secretly travelled to the Void in hopes of finding her best friend's consciousness, only to find nothing but emptiness, much to her horror. An hour or so later, Lucas and Erica saw through the window mysterious white spores descending from the sky, which enabled them to realize that Vecna and the rest of the Upside Down were beginning to take over their hometown, leaving them concerned.

During Mr. Clarke's class, Dustin arrived late told Lucas, Mike, Will, and Max that they all have to meet at AV Club after class as he had something important to show them. When they all met at AV Club, Dustin showed a strange creature, which he had named D'Artagnan, or "Dart" for short. When Dustin handed Dart to Max, she was disgusted on how slimy he was that she handed the creature to Lucas, who described it to be a "living booger." explained he had found it in his trashcan and that he believed the creature to be some sort of pollywog. Lucas thought Dart could be some kind of land pollywog when Dustin mentions that Dart does like water. When they noticed Dart starting to a strange growth where D'Artagnan shrieked upon being inspected under a lamp, Dustin also explains Dart hates the heat and concluded that he had discovered a new species. When the bell rang, Lucas suggested that he show the creature to Mr. Clarke. A cardboard cutout of Freddy Krueger, villain of the Nightmare on Elm Street series, greets customers at Family Video. This is both an era-appropriate bit of set dressing — home video helped turn Freddy into a horror superstar — and a tip of the hat. Vecna, Stranger Things 4’s big bad, resembles a cross between the Cenobites of the Hellraiser series and Krueger (with a touch of the aforementioned Iron Maiden mascot Eddie thrown in the mix as well). Vecna’s hallucinatory approach to claiming his prey is especially indebted to Krueger, but instead of invading his victims’ dreams, Vecna would appear to bring the dreams directly to them. Dustin will even make the connection himself in a future episode. (Look for Nightmare star Robert Englund to show up later in the season, too.)
