Stranger Things, but you’re going to want a few other shows to watch while you wait for
its return. So, to tide you over until then, we’ve put together this list of series that will fill
that Demogorgon-shaped hole in your heart.

Dead Boy Detectives

These supernatural, mystery-solving teens have a lot more fun than our Hawkins crew,
despite the fact that they are, as promised in the title, dead. Set in the world of Neil
Gaiman’s Sandman, our titular sleuths track down the forces hindering some of their
ghost brethren from moving on — all with the help of a few corporeal friends.

Is there any theme more universal than a dysfunctional family trying to band together in
support of a common goal? Because that’s definitely what Stranger Things is about
(and, you know, fighting monsters), and it’s also what the Hargreeves kids do in The
Umbrella Academy. Plus, there’s a ton of snarky dialogue, impressive effects, and a
kick-ass soundtrack, all of which Stranger Things has in spades.

Raising Dion

The plot of this two-season series also involves a young child’s emerging superpowers,
though this show centers around a widowed mother attempting to solve the mystery
around her son’s abilities (while keeping them hidden from people who would want to
take advantage of them). This multigenerational story is perfect for those who love how
Stranger Things splits its time between the adult storylines and the kids of Hawkins.

Locke & Key

If you’re willing to go along with the concept of the Upside Down, you’re definitely
willing to invest in a story about a family living in a house with magical keys that unlock
both powers and secrets. Like The Umbrella Academy, Locke & Key is also based on a
comic book.

Mortel

The Hawkins gang didn’t have much choice when it came time to fight the
Demogorgon (or the Mind Flayer, or any other of the Upside Down’s monsters). But the
group of French teens in Mortel who make a deal with a voodoo god in order to attain
superpowers? They had it coming.
