After a lengthy session of Dungeons & Dragons, a group of young kids depart for the night. But on the way, one of them disappears. His mother enlists the aid of the small town sheriff to help track him down, but all signs point to him vanishing into thin air. But while the young boy has disappeared, a young girl with special abilities suddenly appears, with government agents hot on her trail...
This series is a love letter to the 80s. Set in the 80s, it perfectly encapsulates all the horror/thriller tropes of the time period. You have government conspiracies, otherworldly creatures, D&D, scientific experiements, and supernatural abilities. And the opening theme perfectly sets the tone for the show you're about to watch.
The story is very well put together, too. You get to know all the characters in depth without feeling like the show is dragging on. If you grew up in the 80s (like I did), you'll get waves of nostalgia watching this show. They've completed 2 seasons, with a 3rd releasing next year. If you haven't seen this show yet, now's the best time to watch it! It's on Netflix.
