A mysterious lab, a sinister scientist, and a secret history await in this thrilling prequel to the hit show. Set in the summer of 1969, the shock of conflict resonates through American youth, both at home and abroad. Terry Ives, a student at a quiet Indiana college, feels the world changing and refuses to remain a bystander. When she hears about a crucial government experiment in Hawkins, she volunteers as a test subject for the MKULTRA project. Unmarked vans and a remote lab in the woods set the stage for her journey, where mind-altering substances are administered by tight-lipped researchers, and Terry is determined to uncover the truth. However, within Hawkins National Laboratory, and under the watchful eye of Dr. Martin Brenner, lies a conspiracy beyond her imagination. To confront it, she enlists the help of fellow test subjects, including a mysterious girl known only by her number, 008, who possesses unexplainable superhuman powers. As tensions rise in this new decade, Terry and Brenner engage in a different kind of war—one where the human mind becomes the battlefield.

Hawkins, Navidad de 1984. Lo único que anhela el jefe Jim Hopper es disfrutar de una primera Nochebuena tranquila junto a Once, pero su hija adoptiva tiene otros planes. Acaba de rescatar del sótano una caja de cartón con las palabras «Nueva York» y es entonces cuando empiezan las preguntas complicadas. ¿Por qué se marchó Hopper de Hawkins hace ya tantos años? ¿Qué significa «Vietnam»? Y ¿por qué nunca había hablado de Nueva York? Aunque Hopper preferiría enfrentarse a una horda de Demogorgones que hablar de su pasado, sabe que no puede seguir escondiendo la verdad. Y así comienza la historia del incidente de Nueva York, el último gran caso antes de que todo cambiara. Nueva York, verano de 1977. Hopper inicia una nueva vida a su regreso de Vietnam. Su hija pequeña, su cariñosa esposa y un nuevo empleo como inspector de la policía de Nueva York le facilitan la incorporación a la vida de civil. Pero cuando los agentes federales le arrebatan el caso sin resolver de una serie de brutales asesinatos, Hopper decide actuar por su cuenta y arriesgarlo todo para desvelar la verdad. Tardará poco en infiltrarse en las bandas callejeras más infames de Nueva York. Pero cuando está a punto de resolver el caso, un apagón se apodera de la ciudad y precipita a Hopper en la oscuridad más profunda a la que se haya enfrentado jamás.
Max Mayfield sabe que no encaja. Nunca parece decir lo correcto, no es cursi ni delicada como su madre pretende que sea, y lo que más le gusta son los videojuegos y montar en monopatín.

But there's one aspect of her identity that she knows for sure doesn't fit in with her image--Robin likes girls. How is she supposed to be her true self in teeny-tiny Hawkins, Indiana?
