Many people at North Carolina A&T also participated in binge-watching Stranger Things 2. Jade Woodward, a sophomore Bio-Engineering student, said “I love the show so much because it is unpredictable and action filled.

At the conclusion of its second season, Stranger Things offers up a distorted version of the classic fairy tale ending: our heroes dancing together in a rare and well-earned moment of pure innocence, swaying at the Snow Ball, reunited with long-lost friends and new ones alike — all while the vicious Mind Flayer looms large in the Upside Down, towering over Hawkins, its next steps unknown.
