Welcome to the real-world Hawkins, the town that doesn’t actually exist!
If you have ever dreamt of driving into Hawkins with a mixtape blasting and a suspicious government van in your rearview mirror, here’s a spoiler: you would end up somewhere in Georgia, not Indiana. The Duffers built their beloved town out of Atlanta’s suburbs, old malls, abandoned schools and the occasional “beware of snakes” wilderness. 'Stranger Things' on Netflix may be set in the late eighties, but its filming locations are very much twenty-first-century road-trip material. Let’s take the scenic route, season by season.
