Stranger Things Fanart

What if the Hawkins kids took a wrong turn and ended up in the Soviet Union instead of the Upside Down?

Waldemar Kazak drops the Stranger Things gang straight into a very real Soviet winter: panel housing blocks, cabbage truck, propaganda posters, bundled-up passersby... The kids are still themselves – curious, half-terrified and half-thrilled.

This piece was a chance to play with storytelling through crowd scenes: tiny character moments, background jokes, and that mix of nostalgia and unease that both the show and the late-80s urban USSR share in different ways.
