List of awards and nominations received by Stranger Things

Stranger Things is an American streaming television series created for Netflix by the Duffer Brothers, which features an ensemble cast. It is set in the fictional rural town of Hawkins, Indiana, in the 1980s. The Hawkins National Laboratory ostensibly performs scientific research for the United States Department of Energy, but secretly conducts experiments on the paranormal and supernatural, frequently employing human subjects. Inadvertently, the laboratory created a portal to an alternate dimension called "the Upside Down". The influence of the Upside Down starts to affect the unknowing residents of Hawkins in calamitous ways.[1][2] All episodes of the first season were released on Netflix on July 15, 2016,[3] and the second season was released in its entirety on October 27, 2017.[4] A third season was released on July 4, 2019,[5] with the fourth season being released in two volumes on May 27 and July 1, 2022, respectively.[6]
