Out-of-Genre Experience: In a predominantly Sci-Fi Horror series, “Science Camp�’s main foe is a Friday The 13th style slasher. It gets Lamp Shaded by Dustin. The novel Rebel Robin is a fairly mundane Coming-Out Story with no supernatural elements. Lucas On The Line is a Coming of Age Story where Lucas works to discover himself as a black teenager and interests outside of DnD.

Bait-and-Switch: In “Science Camp�, when we see the various camp counselors, a girl named Stephanie has the hallmarks of being a classic Final Girl: virginal, bookish and more committed to her job. She’s actually the first victim.

Big Bad: The Mind Flayer serves as this for the franchise as a whole, being the ruler of the Upside Down, the mastermind behind the events of the series, and even the main antagonist of some crossovers.

A Day in the Limelight: The main purpose of the comics and books: “Suspicious Minds� is one for Terry Ives and Dr. Brenner, “Darkness On The Edge Of Town� is one for Hopper, and “Runaway Max� is one for Max herself, alongside Billy, her mother Susan and her stepfather/Billy’s father Neil. “Rebel Robin� is one for Robin Buckley and "Lucas On The Line" is one for Lucas. “The Game Master� is from Will’s POV during Season 1, “Six� and its sequel “Into The Fire� are from the perspectives of other kids in Dr. Brenner’s experiments, “Zombie Boys� is from Lucas’s POV, “The Bully� spotlights on Troy and James from the first season, and “Science Camp� is about Dustin and Suzie in Camp Know-Where.

comment
Retcon: The villain of the show's season 4, Vecna, is speculated by Dustin to be the Mind Flayer's general but is stated by Eleven to be the one controlling the Mind Flayer—Henry Creel having sculpted it into its spider-like form, with his all-consuming hatred and malice driving it. The Stranger Things: The First Shadow stage play retcons this and reveals that Dustin was right all along—the Mind Flayer having infected Henry Creel with its essence as a child, slowly corrupting him into the nihilistic sociopath he was when he first met Eleven.

Genre Throwback: The franchise is a love letter to The '80s output of Steven Spielberg/Amblin Entertainment (particularly E.T. the Extra-Terrestrial), John Carpenter, David Cronenberg, and Stephen King (particularly It). In fact, the Duffer brothers originally intended to do a remake of It, but were turned down by Warner Bros., the rights holders.
