  • Boardwalk Times

    Stranger Things: Face the Dark experience showcases longtime and even newer fans a fun way to interact with the world of the show. The exaggerated theatricality and authentic props only add to the whole experience.

  • The Dallas Morning News

    The biggest draw might be the Stranger Things adventure room, where visitors try to solve a mystery in the haunted woods of Hawkins, Ind., in the 1980s.

  • Dallas Observer

    We called the new Stranger Things: Face the Dark adventure “an immersive entertainment experience like no other in the city,” for good reason. This sprawling, permanent installation boasts high-quality production (it’s backed by Netflix, after all) and room design with a razor-sharp attention to detail.

What Fans Are Saying

  • I have never felt so immersed in anything. The details—the props, the sets, the storyline—felt like Hawkins literally rose from the ground and swallowed us whole. You’re not just playing through a scene… you’re surviving it. And that theatrical twist at the end? I swear I ascended. Academy Award-worthy.

    Amanda
