VIDEO: Netflix Releases 'Things You Missed' Montage for 'Stranger Things' That's Full of Easter Eggs

Stranger Things 3 was full of many surprising twists and turns, not to mention some awkward teen romances. While the gruesome Mind Flayer and the evil Russians were no doubt terrifying, the show kept its sweet touch of nostalgia due mainly to the fact that the Hawkins gang are now smack-dab in the middle of the 1980s.

It doesn’t take a keen eye to see many of the '80s references in the series, particularly in Season 3. With scenes taking place at the new mall, references from the decade, such as Hot Dog on a Stick, Sam Goody, and Back to the Future, are a main part of the setting. However, creators the Duffer Brothers wanted to pay true homage to the '80s, and thus left Easter eggs throughout the season that you likely missed.

Luckily for us, Netflix has just released a video explaining the hidden references in Season 3, BGR reports. My personal favorites are the New Coke debate, Mrs. Wheeler’s erotica novel, and Hopper’s Tom Selleck-inspired Hawaiian shirt.
