THE ROUTE

Downtown Hawkins on Foot

The tour brings you into downtown Hawkins (as staged in Senoia), where many signature exterior scenes were filmed and fans gather to trace character movements through the set streets.

THE EXPERIENCE

Walking in the Footsteps of the Cast

Join fellow fans to follow routes used by cast members and feel the uncanny echo of scenes where the Upside Down intrudes on ordinary town life.

THE CULTURE

’80s Nostalgia and Film Lore

The guide frames locations with period context — the music, fashion, and pop culture touchstones that inform the Stranger Things aesthetic — giving the stops historical color as well as cinematic relevance.
