‘Stranger Things’ finally references the Philadelphia Experiment

The fifth and final season of Netflix’s smash hit retro series, Stranger Things, has been a disappointment for many, but there are some fun references for those interested in the history of hoaxes — specifically that of the soldiers fused into the floor and wall in the “melted plastic” Upside Down version of Hawkins Lab. Stranger Things leans heavily into the very real conspiracy of MK-Ultra (and this season also plays a bit into the Adrenochrome harvesting of QAnon, with Kali revealing that the military has been collecting her blood to infuse into pregnant women), but the soldiers shown briefly in episode 5, “Shock Jock,” take us back to the roots of the show.

All the Eerie Real-Life Events ‘Stranger Things’ Is Based On

Before "Stranger Things" became a global sensation, it was a long-shot project by two aspiring filmmakers obsessed with how Stephen King and Steven Spielberg took inspiration from real-word events and conspiracies to craft their stories.

Initially titled Montauk, Matt and Ross Duffer's creation was envisioned as an eight-hour sci-fi horror epic set in 1980 in Montauk, New York, a real town tied to disturbing rumors of government experiments into psychological warfare.

After being rejected several times, the Duffer brothers finally sold the project to Netflix, and Stranger Things was born.

The hit series draws heavily from 1980s pop culture, but some of its creepiest aspects are rooted in real-world experiments and programs. The show’s mind-control labs, psychokinetic children, and military secrecy borrow from classified U.S. and Cold War-era initiatives—stories not only strange, but also true.

That seems to have happened again after his song “End of Beginning” ended up on the Top 100 hit list on Spotify. But he’s not the only cast member from Stranger Things that makes music. In fact, multiple cast members make music.
