Enter the Darkness

The monsters of Stranger Things take center stage as Raven traces their origins through ancient folklore, psychological archetypes, and cultural fears. Vecna, the Demogorgon, and the Mind Flayer become windows into the human psyche — symbols of grief, trauma, possession, and the things we fear becoming. This episode reveals why these creatures resonate so deeply, and why the Upside Down feels like a reflection of our oldest, most primal nightmares.
