Stranger Things : Hawkins Horrors
Stranger Things: Hawkins Horrors by Matthew J. Gilbert is an official horror-anthology tie-in to the Netflix series, published in 2025. Framed by a blackout that forces Dustin, Lucas, Max, and friends to trade scary stories, it gathers seven eerie tales rooted in 1980s Hawkins, an abandoned asylum, a creature said to haunt Lovers' Lake, a possibly possessed teddy bear, and more.
Written for younger readers, the collection blends mystery, suspense, and light supernatural scares in the world of Stranger Things. It is a prose story collection, not a graphic novel or manga.
