Stranger Things (Part 1)

by L. Dani, 7th grade

I have to write about a picture, and because this is a picture I’m gonna write about Stranger Things. I will try to tell the story from memory but definitely not chapter by chapter.

In the first season we are introduced to the main characters: Mike, Will, Lucas, Dustin and Eleven. At the start there is a laboratory where a monster escaped and killed a worker. After that we see the kids (except Eleven) are playing a card game, which has a name, I just don’t know it. Then they go home. On the way home most of the kids get home safely. But Will sees a strange figure in the distance and falls off the road. He runs home but nobody is home. Then he sees the figure from the window again, and then the lights start to flicker. He runs out to the garden where there is a tool shed and he grabs a gun. Then the lights flicker again and he disappears. The next day his mom and his brother realise that he is not home so they start searching for him. His mom (Joyce) goes to the police station where we are introduced to Jim Hopper, the chief of the police. First he doesn’t care that much because he says that kids usually disappear for 2 or 3 days, then come back home, but Joyce convinces him so they start searching for him. Meanwhile a girl appears in a restaurant and the owner gives her food. When he asks what her name is she shows a tattoo on her arm that says: ’011’. The owner calls, I don’t know, Child Protective Service or something and a woman comes there to the restaurant. He let’s her in and then she shoots him and two men come into the restaurant and start searching for Eleven. They find her so she snaps their necks with her telepathic powers and runs away. Mike, Lucas and Dustin go out to a forest to find Will. They don’t find Will, but they find Eleven. They bring her to Mike’s basement.
