Every year on Nov. 6, we commemorate the day Will Byers (Noah Schnapp) first went missing in 1983 (and all things Stranger Things). This year, we’re celebrating with 20 never-before-seen photos from the set of Stranger Things Season 4. Pretty bitchin’, right?
Millie Bobby Brown is all smiles when she’s, you know, not witnessing Henry Creel kill Eleven’s friends in the lab.
Vecna (Jamie Campbell Bower) is still just as menacing in November as he was when he debuted in May.
Gaten Matarazzo and Joe Keery partake in a pleasant frolic around Hawkins in a rare, spare moment from monster hunting.
Look at these guns (that are holding the key to Maya Hawke’s hydration).
Winona Ryder and Brett Gelman taking a load off before their characters sip on Yuri’s (Nikola Đuričko) spiked coffee. Lesson learned: Don’t take candy (or coffee) from strangers, no matter how cold Alaska is!
It’s Hawkins’ “genius child,” Gaten Matarazzo, in the flesh.
Natalia Dyer makes a few adjustments to her outfit before she’s sucked into Vecna’s mind lair.
“Papa and Eleven have such an intimate relationship, so we needed to be able to bond to portray that,” said Millie Bobby Brown of working with Matthew Modine. “We meshed, and it was just a true, real friendship. Nothing was ever forced. It just worked.”
Joe Quinn and Eddie Munson’s world-saving “sweetheart”
Amybeth McNulty and Maya Hawke got spirit! Yes, they do. They’ve got spirit, how about you?
Breaking out of a Russian prison feels pretty good, right, David Harbour?
Noah Schnapp and Millie Bobby Brown catching some zzz’s in between takes because saving the world is hard work.
This is the look of someone who’s just defeated Eddie’s “sadistic” campaign, thanks to a certain chaotic half-elf rogue named Lady Applejack (aka Priah Ferguson’s Erica Sinclair).
Remember when Max (Sadie Sink) and Lucas (Caleb McLaughlin) were planning on going to the movies on Friday? Simpler times.
Eduardo Franco’s Argyle enlightening the Lenora gang on the beauty of pineapple on pizza.
Wonder what Priah Ferguson and Gaten Matarazzo were spelling out on that Lite-Brite in between takes…
Will’s party drawing for Mike Wheeler (Finn Wolfhard) in all its glory.
Friends don’t lie… about Dustin and Lucas looking all grown up.
Take that, Vecna!

Over and out, nerds.

On Nov. 6, 1983, Will Byers went missing in Hawkins, Indiana. Long after the town gave up the search, his friends kept looking... and discovered a mysterious girl known only by a number: Eleven. She was alone, hunted and extremely powerful. Eleven would stop at nothing to help them find their friend. Today, Stranger Things fans everywhere celebrate Nov. 6 as Stranger Things Day, a special day to share their love for the series.
