“Stranger Things” Fanatic Scholarship
“Friends don’t lie,” and neither do true fans of Hawkins, Indiana’s strangest events! From the eerie corridors of the Upside Down to the epic showdowns at Starcourt Mall, “Stranger Things” has us constantly on our toes, cheering for our favorite squad of misfits, and theorizing about every twist.
So, here’s the deal: Imagine there’s a brand new, totally gnarly supernatural threat in Hawkins (because, of course there is). If you had the power, which three characters would you recruit to your ultimate monster-fighting dream team? Would you bank on Eleven’s psychic prowess? Or perhaps Steve’s ‘Mom’ instincts? Dive deep into the character dynamics, strengths, and quirks, and let us know who you’d rally alongside to face the unknown.
All you ‘Stranger Things’ devotees out there, this is your moment. Whether you’re all about the ’80s vibes, the Demogorgons, or just a big fan of the Scoops Troop, hit us with your dream trio and tell us why they’re your best bet against the supernatural.
The clock’s ticking, just like those tense moments in the Hawkins Lab. This scholarship has a rolling deadline, so get your entries in early! The sooner you share your Hawkins dream team, the better your odds.
Note: This scholarship isn’t endorsed by or affiliated with Netflix or “Stranger Things.” We’re just hardcore fans, hoping to find fellow enthusiasts who love the show as much as we do!
If you could form a squad with any three characters from the show to face a new supernatural threat, who would you choose and why?
