Netflix hit series, Stranger Things, is set in a fictional small town, Hawkins, Indiana.
The setting of this series mirrors that of many other horror films. The nostalgic, seemingly-calm town with a dark secret or hidden terror.
This archetype in the film and narrative genre is something that rings true for audiences.
Today on All Sides, the magic of small towns in horror.
