“Stranger Things” is a popular Netflix original series that recently released its second season. The new season introduces additional characters while new supernatural events begin to happen in Hawkins. Things may seem like they are almost back to normal, but that is not the case when strange things start to occur.

When the first season came out last July, it slowly became a popular show and now tons of fans are excited for this new season. The first time I watched Season One, I knew I wanted to see the next season and I’m happy with how the second season turned out.

The second season is exciting to watch because more is added to the already intense story line. Even though some bad things happen, new friendships and relationships are formed and it’s interesting to see what happens as the season progresses. Also, the show can also be a little bit emotional at times; some things made me sad while others were happier moments.

The second season starts out introducing new characters and Mike, Will, Dustin, and Lucas try to decide whether or not to add one of the new characters to their group. Will experiences new things and has to go back to the lab to be tested every now and then for the scientists to help him. An important character from Season One also makes appearances again in the second season. Furthermore, new events happen and some questions are answered in Season Two that were wondered about in the first season.

One of the best parts about the second season is that some of the episodes left me sitting on the edge of my couch. I was always anxious to see what would happen next and the episodes just got better and better. Although some things don’t get explained and it leaves you guessing, the mystery about those things helps enhance the mood of the show. The different powers from supernatural characters is also a very unique thing to watch, and it’s fun to see how that character uses them. It’s also cool to see the actors/characters grow up.

I recommend the second season of “Stranger Things” because it is one of the most interesting and unique shows out there right now, and I think everyone should check it out the first chance they get.
