My family was invited to visit Stranger Things: The Experience in San Francisco. Our kids are 12 and 13 and very into the Netflix sci-fi drama Stranger Things so we were all excited to check it out. Their website doesn't give much away, so we were not sure what to expect. Turns out we were all pleasantly surprised at our adventure.

This immersion experience will allow you to interact with iconic characters and locations from the series. Upon arrival, you will be told that you are participating in a sleep study for Hawkins Power and Light before heading into Hawkins Laboratory... Good luck!

The participation of the guests makes it all even better, so get in there and enjoy yourselves.

You will also enjoy exploring some of the popular locations from the show such as an arcade, Scoops Ahoy and Surfer Boy Pizza with food and alcohol available for purchase. The pizza was $6 and the fun, premium cocktails were $16. Visit all of the photo ops such as the Byers' living room couch and Rink-O-Mania. The interactions with the actors were awesome. And don't miss the gift shop for all the best Stranger Things memorabilia.
