Warning: Spoilers
'Stranger Things' is back to form with this greatness of episode: less forced humor, more adult, gripping, intense horror, fine references to the 80s and a touching story arc about Max.

Her character is in the centre of this episode: about her relationship to her friends, to her family, to her late brother Billy who died last season.

The other important subplot is about the research of Nancy and Robin about a case from the 50s connected to the present events, their hilarious visit at the Pennhurst asylum and their tense conversation with Victor Creel (excellently played by Robert Englund).

Excellent montage between the timelines and paralell worlds, great acting; outstanding: Sadie Sink as Max.

Wonderful original score and sountrack, creepy, suspenseful atmosphere.

Very touching episode with well crafted references to 'Nightmare on Elm Street' and fine makeup effects.

Highly recommended.
