Stranger Things: Worlds Turned Upside Down: The Official Behind-The-Scenes Companion

The Duffer Brothers Recap Stranger Things 2, ‘Chapter Three: The Pollywog’". Vulture. November 1, 2017 The Upside Down contains no life recognizable to humans beyond dead plants and trees, instead harboring its own unique biology and ecosystem. Biological growth of various kinds, such as vines, tendrils and flesh-like membranes, are prevalent across the dimension's version of Hawkins, permeating and covering most surfaces. These life forms appear to grow and spread in a similar fashion to fungi or plant life. The second event was when our preaching pastor made mention of Unseen Realm when he was preaching on Ephesians, Chapter 6. We had never discussed Heiser prior, but it was clear we both had been influenced by Unseen Realm (although we would both fall short of giving the good doctor an endorsement for all his views without exception.) As far as can be determined, all native biological growth and organisms present in the Upside Down are part of a hive mind made possible through an enormous entity known as the Mind Flayer. Because of this, the entire dimension is virtually a giant superorganism. The entity possessed other creatures by embedding fragments of itself - clouds of particles - inside their bodies. As long as a gate remained open, the Mind Flayer's psychic link to its disembodied fragments would remain. In 1985, the opening of a new gate revitalised a Mind Flayer fragment, which led to the creation of the Mind Flayer's proxy form: a fleshy 30-ft-tall monstrosity, made from the remains of possessed humans. After the massacre and Henry's disappearance, Eleven became the sole focus of Dr. Brenner. In a series of experiments, Eleven would be immersed in a deep psychic state via sensory deprivation tank. She could observe people in different physical locations while in this frame of mind. Brenner sought to use this power to spy on enemy Russians.

Stranger Things. Il libro ufficiale" ci è stato recapitato, come dice il titolo stesso, in maniera ufficiale da chi di questa serie ne capisce davvero, tramite un'edizione curata nei minimi dettagli e contenente anche due inserti molto carini. Following the opening of the curse gates in 1986, plumes of spores started to fall across the landscape of Hawkins. The yearbook like features that highlighted the older teen characters; Nancy Wheeler, Barb Holland, Johnathan Byers, and Steve Harrington. The book followed the same structure throughout. Heiser would recap the events in Stranger Things, and then draw parallels to the Bible and Christian life.My wife and I are big fans of Stranger Things. Whatever else one might think of the series the Duffer brothers sure know how to tell a good story. When I saw that Heiser wrote a book on the first three seasons I had to get it, just for fun and to see to what extent Heiser could connect the series to the gospel. The HIGHEST recommendation possible, based solely on McIntyre's text, which was utterly fascinating and chronicled the origins of a show that's come to redefine the generation. The interior and exterior designs were secondary and served as a massive bonus. Book Genre: Art, Culture, Fantasy, Film, Horror, Media Tie In, Mystery, Nonfiction, Paranormal, Photography, Pop Culture, Science Fiction Fantasy, Tv Some point after surviving his fall, Henry exited the inter-dimensional space and entered a mysterious alternate dimension. It was mountainous and rugged, like the inter-dimensional space, but instead consisted of a singular plane, and possessed a gold-brown sky full with floating boulders. At first, Henry believed the dimension to be a kind of ‘purgatory’, but he soon changed his mind, coming to view it instead as “a realm unspoiled by mankind”. Henry began to traverse the alien terrain, encountering “so many things”, including a species of faceless humanoid predators. The text goes through the history of the show, from its development by the Duffer Brothers, the assembly of the cast, and the filming of season 1 (which gets the most attention), to the phenomenon of that season’s success, then season 2. It mostly goes through the plot of both seasons, using that as a way to look (never in huge depth) at various aspects of the making of the show, both technical and artistic. There are brief interview snippets with cast and crew, and the book’s peppered with little 80s-appropriate features on the main actors (D&D character sheets for Mike, Dustin, Lucas and Will, Hawkins Lab secret files on El, Joyce and Hopper, and so on). And there’s loads of full-colour photos throughout, many of which I hadn’t seen before — so, not just stills from the show as you’ll have seen it on-screen. (I guess they’re from alternative takes or an on-set photographer.)

The Upside Down was called the Nether in every season one script and on set" Insider. November 8, 2017. The official behind-the-scenes companion guide to the first two seasons of Stranger Things and beyond, brought to life with exclusive photos and stunning concept art. Oh, absolutely. The new story is rooted in the mythology and world of Stranger Things. It just takes place in the past and serves as an origin story for the TV series we can’t get enough of, tying together then, now, and the future of Hawkins. Think of it this way: The next day, a mind-addled and disturbed Billy kidnapped his co-worker Heather Holloway and took her to the Steel Works, where she too became possessed by the creature. Over the next few days, dozens more people were 'flayed', including Doris Driscoll and Bruce Lowe. "The Flayed" would often target those close to them, such as Heather's parents, Tom and Janet. In some cases, such as with Doris Driscoll, exposure to infected rats was enough to bring the individual under the Mind Flayer's thrall. As with the rats, the unfortunate humans would be made to gorge cleaning fluids and other toxic chemicals, which would seemingly boost the infection's grip upon their minds. Some of these individuals would later dissolve into biomass, to be reconstituted into fleshy monstrosities directly under the hive mind’s control.

Fans buy companion guides like this for the novelty and to flip through on occasion. Few read the work from cover to cover. However, I decided to give it a go. And I had a blast. Not to mention Dr. Brenner, Victor and Virginia Creel, Ted Wheeler and Karen Childress (Mike and Nancy’s mother), Lonnie Byers, Charles Sinclair and Sue Anderson (Lucas and Erica’s mother), and Claudia Yount (Dustin’s mother). Can I see a photo from the show? Although Will Byers was taken into the Upside Down by the Demogorgon, he managed to evade capture for several days. During that time, he attempted to communicate with his mother after he realized he could manipulate electricity in his home dimension. On one occasion Will found a partially resealed gate in the wall, using it to briefly talk to his mother before it finished resealing. The sound the demogorgon made was created using sounds from baby seals, human breathing, and scraping sheet metal with dry ice. The third target was Max Mayfield, the stepsister of the Flayed's quote-on-quote 'leader', Billy Hargrove. Max was struggling with the loss of Billy, suffering through nightmares where she would re-experience his death. Though Max and Billy had a tumultuous relationship, she felt guilty for wishing for "something to happen to him"; Max's festering grief made her a prime candidate for Vecna's plans. However, unlike Chrissy and Fred, Max and her friends had prior experience grappling with the horrors of the Upside Down. She was Vecna's only victim from this time to have any understanding what was happening to her, and why.

Speaking of which, the section on spiritual warfare was quite good. He recaps his take on the Nephilim. Although Esau’s relatives killed off the Nephilim in Moab (Dt. 2:8-22), they were still in Bashan and Canaan (Dt 2:23-3:11; Num. 13:22, 28ff; Deut. 9:1-2; Josh. 11:21-22). God specifically targeted them in the invasion. Essential reading for fans of the popular Netflix TV series who want to take a peak behind the curtains to see how the show is produced and learn about the actors who make the characters so enjoyable to watch on the small screen.The official behind-the-scenes companion guide to the first two seasons of Stranger Things and beyond, featuring exclusive color photos and stunning concept art. Hopper guided Eleven through the lab to the Gate, so that she may finally close it for good. Drawing on all her strength and pain, Eleven successfully used her powers to seal the rift. Vecna and the Mind Flayer's psychic link to the human world was cut off, causing the Demodogs and the tunnel-organism to die. The particles of the Mind Flayer’s fragment scattered across the floor of Brimborn Steel Works: dormant, but not destroyed. However, they are sure to not let logic dictate all of their decisions. As long as it’s not cheating the audience and feels like it belongs in their world, the Duffers often use ideas that simply excite them. Explaining any gaps in the mythology that arise is not their greatest concern. [33] Design
