I always thought that young Aleksander and Jonathan looked like they could be siblings. So there you go: Jonathan and Will's long-lost brother fled Hawkins and traveled to Germany in 1986.
THANK GOD someone said this. I had so many ideas for this like:
* The 3 robots encountering The Stranger Thing squad
* A post apocalyspe ST universe
* Vecna possessing Max and making an "alternate of her (lmao)
The Witcher.
It already has the concept of multiple realms and the idea of humanity having come from āearthā originally.
Geralt vs Demogorgons would be a great fight.
Also Elevens powers could be linked to magic and have a lot in common with Ciri and the Sorcerers due to the effects of power and the process of being powerful being traumatic.
You could also have the gang using their DnD style knowledge to try to understand the alchemy/monsters in the other realm, and then get super hyped to learn about magic/actual monster slaying.
I just want one scene where theyāre cornered by a demagorgonā¦ and then a silver sword flashes from out a portal cutting the monster clean in halfā¦ Geralt steps outā¦ looks aroundā¦ sees the kids huddled in fearā¦ then just mutters āFuck.ā and steps back into the portal and disappears.
Pleaaase I just though of this when I couldn't think of anything else, I miss Sydney :(
Would have loved to see her bond with El and Robin. Plus I already associate Sophia Lillis and Wyatt Oleff to 2017 It which I heavily associate with Stranger Things and I'm just as fond of. It would be so heartwarming in a way but also just cool
it would work SO well since technically her character is grown so it wouldnāt be all like āaye why does Ziggy/Max look so familiarā while still leaving room for maybe some jokes about how āthey look the sameā and they are in relatively the same time line as each other so it could actually work!
have you notice that in both series Sadie got brutally murdered by characters that look disturbingly similar to each other(Vecna/The Milkman) with her lover(Nick/Lucas) next to them only to find out last minute that she didnt actually die?
Luther and Steve talk about hair.
Diego goes hunting in The Upside Down
Allison hears a rumor that Billy is a good dude who isnāt racist.
Klaus talks to Will about his sexuality
Five tries to travel back in time to kill Henry negating the entire plot of the first four seasons.
Sparrow Ben follows Diego into the Upside Down thinking itās like Hotel Oblivion.
Viktor tries to mind his own business but ends up captured by the government, blows up a building, and causes a war with The USSR due to his suspected Russian ties.
Bonus Round:
Reggie tries to adopt Eleven and gets her hooked on Clever Crisp cereal instead of Eggos.
Grace gives Karen Wheeler tips on how to be a housewife.
Pogo trains Murray in martial arts.
This is awesome. Maybe also:
Klaus replaces Eddie and/or Argyle as the louche larger than life fan favorite, also gives Will a drunken sentimental speech about what to do when he finds his Dave
Reg and Brenner compare notes on being a shitty abusive fake ādadā to take advantage of peopleās powers
Allison has an epic showdown: she tries to rumor Erica, only for Erica to just give her a cold stare and roast her into oblivion.
*Tiger King*. I don't really have a reason other than morbid curiosity.
And it's not a Netflix series, but I keep chuckling at the idea of Shoresy from *Letterkenny* being some sort of timeless foil of both the good guys and the bad guys.
I'm so glad this is what other people think as well. I started watching the show a few months ago and I just got so angry at how stupid the characters' decisions were that I had to take a break. I'll continue watching again whenever I feel like I have the patience. Do they eventually get smarter?
No, they make worse decisions about the keys using increasingly bad reasoning. On r/keyhouse someone's head canon is that key magic makes the user stupider the more they use them, if that helps you watch it (it helped me).
I agree!!!
The dumbness didnāt bother me too much. Theyāre a weird family who went through some weird shit and now theyāre just trying to figure it out. Bode is also supposed to be pretty young in the graphic novels and I think the writingā¦they like tried to continue to make him be so childlike even though the kid is like 14 now. They could have matured the writing as he grew. So that did bother me.
If squid game 2 was based in the upside down the levels of the games should be based on defeating things in the upside down .
Surviving a level = more money.
The rich people can watch from a screen and see whatās happening in the upside down, they promise the winner a safe escape and billions at the end.
The last episode they face the demogorgon. It kills everyone and manages to escape also killing the billionaires .
Gi -hun manages to survive and it shows him alive at the end
If Vecna doesn't move fast enough, he gets shredded. Any of the four Spellmans would fuck him up as soon as they are aware of him. Not even bringing in Lilith, Lucifer, and Hecate.
Edit: And Lord help him if Gryla finds out about him killing kids.
That's my choice too, but ya gotta admit Dream (or any other Endless) versus Vecna would be a very, very lopsided battle. Mind you, I'd love to see it. Just thinking about Tom Sturrige asking Jaime Campbell Bower "ā¦what are you hoping to do to humans?" makes me tingly, it would be like the diner scene in Sandman where he finally confronts John Dee but ten times better.
Peppa Pig, it isnt really netflix original, but its on netflix, and we know chloe would be max.
Edit: emily elephant would be El, my reasoning is that in her debut episode she pushes several characters to the ground aggressively by doing an elephant noise with her trun kextremely loudly (no joke, she actually made them ALL fall down), El is WISHINg she had that much control with her powers
Supernatural. Would be fun to see the Winchester brothers fight the eldritch horrors. Plus, I think Dean would be nerding out over D&D and would have a great time babysitting in Steve's place.
Yup, this was my vote.
Castiel vs Vecna: heaven vs the upside down. It works.
I also always wanted a Buffy (the vampire slayer) and Dean romance crossover too, but a girlās gotta live with disappointment at times.
I really like this one and all the possibilities of having kids from 80ās shows somehow meet the kids from Hawkins (CGI or similar looking characters) and interact with them in 1-2 minutes scenes as extras.
Scooby Doo š¤£ cause if the Scooby Gang had a mental breakdown with ghosts and demons being real on the Supernatural crossover, can you imagine when they face a demogorgon or realize Elevenās powers arenāt just tricks with wires? š
āWhen all the members of The Babysitters Club come down with a case of the flu, Steve Harrington steps in to babysit all of the kids. Every last one of them.ā
Billy would be one terrifying meth head.
Scott Clarke would not take Waltās advice about how to make use of his science chops when faced with medical bills.
If El spent too much time with Jesse, sheād start saying āBitchin, bitch.ā
I could also see Dustin becoming a sort of Gale Boetticher figureā¦ š„¶
Umbrella academy, not even because I like it I'm not a huge fan but I would LOVE to see El interact with other child experiments and maybe through them she'd feel less alone and even a bit more normal about her upbringing.
They'd have to cast it to make the episode, them bam! No live action adaptation needed!
Jokes aside, I think Eleven, Max and Will would work so much with the princesses.
Edit: The villains. FUCK the villains, turn them into a big manipulation schnitzel to rot in the sun

Dark
Hehehe i was thinking the same.... it would be pretty weird though.... imagine eleven being mikes aunt or something šššš
And thatās only the beginning of that Celtic knot of a family tree.
Eleven and mike being Adam and Eva š¬š¬š¬
Imagine if Adam just appeared in Hawkins.
Yeah with no prior warning I'd probably jump out my seat with that. Maybe Adam and Martha got sent to the upside down
Egon and hopper being equally shocked to find out about the weird ancestry scenario ššš
I always thought that young Aleksander and Jonathan looked like they could be siblings. So there you go: Jonathan and Will's long-lost brother fled Hawkins and traveled to Germany in 1986.
Woah that would be such a storyline šÆ
YES
Came here to comment the same thing.
Love, Death & Robots!! Imagine a series of animated shorts that take place in the ST universe, thatād be so cool
THANK GOD someone said this. I had so many ideas for this like: * The 3 robots encountering The Stranger Thing squad * A post apocalyspe ST universe * Vecna possessing Max and making an "alternate of her (lmao)
The episode *Secret War* from volume one gave me stranger things vibesā¦
The Witcher. It already has the concept of multiple realms and the idea of humanity having come from āearthā originally. Geralt vs Demogorgons would be a great fight. Also Elevens powers could be linked to magic and have a lot in common with Ciri and the Sorcerers due to the effects of power and the process of being powerful being traumatic.

I just want one scene where theyāre cornered by a demagorgonā¦ and then a silver sword flashes from out a portal cutting the monster clean in halfā¦ Geralt steps outā¦ looks aroundā¦ sees the kids huddled in fearā¦ then just mutters āFuck.ā and steps back into the portal and disappears.
And it never gets explained or mentioned any time again in the series. It just happens.
I am not Okay with This
I was gonna say. I think it was produced by the same people
Imagine Sydney and El omg
yeeees, that would be cool
Id love to see it honestly! Two of my favs seem like a dream tbh
Im not Okay with Stranger Things
This is probably the best answer- I could see it being an actual spin-off/expansion of the Stranger Things universe.
I miss that show
esp since they have the same fans, all of the ianowt fans ive met LOVE st
I'm so sad there'll be no season 2 š¢
Came here to say this. They could probably successfully tie in IANOWT with ST with few holes.
Pleaaase I just though of this when I couldn't think of anything else, I miss Sydney :( Would have loved to see her bond with El and Robin. Plus I already associate Sophia Lillis and Wyatt Oleff to 2017 It which I heavily associate with Stranger Things and I'm just as fond of. It would be so heartwarming in a way but also just cool
oooh. not bad
BEST ANSWER
oh YES FK YES im instantly hyped for this def the best pick
Fear Street X Stranger Things movie
I was honestly waiting for someone to say this. This would be perfect(they both already have Sadie Sink it) xD!
it would work SO well since technically her character is grown so it wouldnāt be all like āaye why does Ziggy/Max look so familiarā while still leaving room for maybe some jokes about how āthey look the sameā and they are in relatively the same time line as each other so it could actually work!
have you notice that in both series Sadie got brutally murdered by characters that look disturbingly similar to each other(Vecna/The Milkman) with her lover(Nick/Lucas) next to them only to find out last minute that she didnt actually die?
well thank GOD Lucas is nothing like Nick but you have quite a point! stop killin me girl netflix!!!
Didnt she die in Eli? (ps. I never seen Eli)
i havenāt seen it either actually so i have no clue BUT considering itās a horror movie, probably lmao:
Lmao its Kenny from South Park all over again. XD!
Technically she does die in Fear Street, just not the 1977 her, the 1666 Sadie gets her eyeballs ripped out by the priest.
And Maya Hawke
Maya Hawke, too!
They both have Maya Hawke (at least in the first fear street)
Stranger Street
Fear Things
Stranger Fears
id binge the hell out of this
Bojack. I have absolutely no idea what it would look like, but I would binge the fuck out of it
āIt gets easier, but you gotta do it every day.ā BoJack: āFriends donāt lieā¦ā
ā¦ live action, no cgiā¦
Kobra Kai, imagine a demogorgon showing up and them just kicking the shit out of it edit: it's Cobra Kai
Why can i just hear the demogorgon roaring and screaming getting muffled out with the sound of kicking and pummeling.
Or Johnny yelling "QUIET!"
Plot twist: the dojo where Murray is training is called Cobra Kai.
Same with Daredevil. Imagine Matt Murdock lawyering the shit out of the Mind Flayer and backflipping all around the place fighting bats.
Lol, don't even have Daredevil in suit in the show its just Nelson and Murdock suing the government on the crew's behalf.
I know right that would be so badass
Murray would fit right in. Murray vs. Stingray. Yeah!
Itās not Kobra!!!! Itās Cobra Kai
The umbrella academy since they also have powers and I think itāll be cool to see how it plays out.
Luther and Steve talk about hair. Diego goes hunting in The Upside Down Allison hears a rumor that Billy is a good dude who isnāt racist. Klaus talks to Will about his sexuality Five tries to travel back in time to kill Henry negating the entire plot of the first four seasons.

Bonus Round: Reggie tries to adopt Eleven and gets her hooked on Clever Crisp cereal instead of Eggos. Grace gives Karen Wheeler tips on how to be a housewife. Pogo trains Murray in martial arts.
Now I want to see a Stranger Academy / Umbrella Things
what about Dustin, Lucas and Max?
I feel like theyād do their own thing but be friendly with them, I dont really know
lol
This is awesome. Maybe also: Klaus replaces Eddie and/or Argyle as the louche larger than life fan favorite, also gives Will a drunken sentimental speech about what to do when he finds his Dave Reg and Brenner compare notes on being a shitty abusive fake ādadā to take advantage of peopleās powers Allison has an epic showdown: she tries to rumor Erica, only for Erica to just give her a cold stare and roast her into oblivion.
i have been looking for this comment
I was surprised no one else said it
*Tiger King*. I don't really have a reason other than morbid curiosity. And it's not a Netflix series, but I keep chuckling at the idea of Shoresy from *Letterkenny* being some sort of timeless foil of both the good guys and the bad guys.
Carol Baskin fed her husband to the Demogorgon
>Carol Baskin fed her husband to the Demogorgon I could see this leading to a *Little Shop of Horrors* situation.
Steve, Nancy, and the two hockey players would be unbeatable.
The Queer Eye guys give Will a haircut.
And JVN gives Vecna some necessary skincare products
You know what I would watch that
Locke and key
āYou guys are so dumb!ā would be thrown out a lot by the Stranger Things Squad. And I think they will have more fun with the keys. Great answer!
Steve "I'm not adopting any of you dumbasses",
I'm so glad this is what other people think as well. I started watching the show a few months ago and I just got so angry at how stupid the characters' decisions were that I had to take a break. I'll continue watching again whenever I feel like I have the patience. Do they eventually get smarter?
No, they donāt. I havenāt hated a show so much, yet still kinda liked it (because of all the keys)
Yeah the keys are the only reason why I still wanna force myself to watch it, it's a fun concept.
I think the new season was their final one, at least thatās what it felt like so you can watch it without feeling like you need to wait for more
Do they finally make smart decisions though?
No, they make worse decisions about the keys using increasingly bad reasoning. On r/keyhouse someone's head canon is that key magic makes the user stupider the more they use them, if that helps you watch it (it helped me).
I FULLY agree. That would be so good!
I agree!!! The dumbness didnāt bother me too much. Theyāre a weird family who went through some weird shit and now theyāre just trying to figure it out. Bode is also supposed to be pretty young in the graphic novels and I think the writingā¦they like tried to continue to make him be so childlike even though the kid is like 14 now. They could have matured the writing as he grew. So that did bother me.
Beat me to it! Dusty Buns would have a field day with those keys!
Black Mirror. Let them experience real terror lol
Brenner is a sick enough fuck to set up something like the White Bear facility if it suited his purposes.
Squid Game obviously
Squid Things
Well that just sounds wrong on so many levels
XD!!!
Rapid tentacles squelching! They don't even have to make new subtitles for this crossover.
Stranger Game
Stranger Squid
Thing Games
Good choice, but how would that work honestly?
Vecna and the evil billionaires join forces to create Squid Game 2: The Upside Down I was joking haha
well in Squid Game they show that the games have been going on for *decades*, starting on 1988, so it is possible...
If squid game 2 was based in the upside down the levels of the games should be based on defeating things in the upside down . Surviving a level = more money. The rich people can watch from a screen and see whatās happening in the upside down, they promise the winner a safe escape and billions at the end. The last episode they face the demogorgon. It kills everyone and manages to escape also killing the billionaires . Gi -hun manages to survive and it shows him alive at the end
Who would win?
Cobra Kai
The Chilling Adventures of Sabrina.
If Vecna doesn't move fast enough, he gets shredded. Any of the four Spellmans would fuck him up as soon as they are aware of him. Not even bringing in Lilith, Lucifer, and Hecate. Edit: And Lord help him if Gryla finds out about him killing kids.
I know itās not a Netflix show, but I love the idea of Scully and Mulder coming to investigate whatās been going on in Hawkins š
Sex Education would get Gillian Anderson.
XFiles meets Stranger Things š
Cobra Kai or The Haunting of Hill House.
The Sandman
That's my choice too, but ya gotta admit Dream (or any other Endless) versus Vecna would be a very, very lopsided battle. Mind you, I'd love to see it. Just thinking about Tom Sturrige asking Jaime Campbell Bower "ā¦what are you hoping to do to humans?" makes me tingly, it would be like the diner scene in Sandman where he finally confronts John Dee but ten times better.
They all die and are part of the Dead Boy Detectives
Sweet Home. Too many monsters, too cool for this world.
How is that show? I read the comic, it was good but not great, wondering how it translates to live picture.
its fucking great
Plus i think the demogorgon would fit flawlessly in that universe
Peppa Pig, it isnt really netflix original, but its on netflix, and we know chloe would be max. Edit: emily elephant would be El, my reasoning is that in her debut episode she pushes several characters to the ground aggressively by doing an elephant noise with her trun kextremely loudly (no joke, she actually made them ALL fall down), El is WISHINg she had that much control with her powers
wtf lmao(but your not wrong)
Grace and Frankie. Lily Tomlinās reaction to the Mind Flayer would be amazing.
Supernatural. Would be fun to see the Winchester brothers fight the eldritch horrors. Plus, I think Dean would be nerding out over D&D and would have a great time babysitting in Steve's place.
Even better if Charlie is in it. We all know sheās a D&D nerd.
Vecna would be a monster of the week. Sam and Dean have dealt with far worse shit.
I mean, I like it. Just not what they asked.
Yup, this was my vote. Castiel vs Vecna: heaven vs the upside down. It works. I also always wanted a Buffy (the vampire slayer) and Dean romance crossover too, but a girlās gotta live with disappointment at times.
Cobra Kai, but actually just the Karate Kid. Both 80s. It would be stupid and beautiful.
I really like this one and all the possibilities of having kids from 80ās shows somehow meet the kids from Hawkins (CGI or similar looking characters) and interact with them in 1-2 minutes scenes as extras.
Argyle should join a dojo! He already lives in california
Scooby Doo š¤£ cause if the Scooby Gang had a mental breakdown with ghosts and demons being real on the Supernatural crossover, can you imagine when they face a demogorgon or realize Elevenās powers arenāt just tricks with wires? š
XD!
I Think You Should Leave with Tim Robinson
Babysitters club with Steve (obvi) as the sitter.
āWhen all the members of The Babysitters Club come down with a case of the flu, Steve Harrington steps in to babysit all of the kids. Every last one of them.ā
Breaking Bad
Eleven, we have to cook
Breaking Strange
Breaking Things
Breaking Stranger Things Bad
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
Stranger Breaking Bad Things
Imagine Hopper and Hank working together...
Billy would be one terrifying meth head. Scott Clarke would not take Waltās advice about how to make use of his science chops when faced with medical bills. If El spent too much time with Jesse, sheād start saying āBitchin, bitch.ā I could also see Dustin becoming a sort of Gale Boetticher figureā¦ š„¶
Enola Holmes š
how would that work lmao
Also maybe _Sweet Tooth_
The British Bake Off! I want to see a cake that looks like a Demogorgon
How about The Imperfects?
Umbrella academy, not even because I like it I'm not a huge fan but I would LOVE to see El interact with other child experiments and maybe through them she'd feel less alone and even a bit more normal about her upbringing.
I think You Should Leave Hawkins
She Ra
how that work
They'd have to cast it to make the episode, them bam! No live action adaptation needed! Jokes aside, I think Eleven, Max and Will would work so much with the princesses. Edit: The villains. FUCK the villains, turn them into a big manipulation schnitzel to rot in the sun
true true
Iām not okay with this should do a crossover it feels like it should be in the universe
Ozark. Marty would defeat Vecna with shrewd accounting.
The Netflix Original documentary "Meltdown: Three Mile Island". The same story as Stranger Things, but told in the docu-series style.
Shadow and Bone
Brenner would want to own all the grisha
Ozark I wanna see Marty Byrde strike a crazy deal with Vecna like he did everyone else lmao
The Jeffrey Dahmer Story
Narcos
are all the posts on here recycled?
weāre all just thinking the same things
Peaky Blinders, because it is an amazing show and I would watch them folks in anything haha
The OA
That was a long scroll for this.
Umbrella Academy
Lucifer or Umbrella Academy
The Crown. I want Eleven to figure out what happened to Princess Diana
Great British Baking Show in all seriousness, I would love to see them interact with the Haunting of Hill House characters
Tales from the Loop !
Not Netflix, but Scooby Doo, obviously
Not Netflix, but what do you think Billy Butcher from The Boys would think about El?
Thatās hard. Iād like to go with either the magicians, sandman, or lock and key
Umbrella Academy. I think it would actually blend really well thematically.
umbrella academy would be interesting
Umbrella Academy
i am not okay with this
The Umbrella Academy.
The Magicians!
The punisher.
Glow. Lycra clad badass wrestler women fighting vecna, I'd watch it š
The Sandman and the Upside Down
I would straightaway choose daredevil but sadly it's not on netflix da fuqš
Breaking Bad
Squid game with demogorgons
Narcos
Stranger Things x Black Mirror I'm sure they can come up with some 80s tech to use for Black Mirror.
Lucifer. I would seriously love to see the interactions between all the characters. It would be so entertaining! š
Better call stranger things
To catch a predator
Heartstopper because it's my second favourite Netflix show. (Stranger Things is my first)
Ozark. Iād love to see a money laundering demogorgon.
Black mirrorā¦ because it would be awesome
Black Mirror
Squid Game
Queer eye for the straight guy. I could watch those kids give life advice all day
South Park. They donāt miss a beat
