These days, everyone’s been raving about Stranger Things, and if you still haven’t gotten around to binge-watching it on Netflix, now’s the perfect time. With Halloween just around the corner, nothing will get you more in the mood than this sci-fi show. Set in the 80’s, it’s about the mysterious disappearance of a young boy, and the efforts of his family and friends to find him. Oh, and there’s a terrifying monster, evil scientists, and telekinesis. 

Apart from the adorable faces of the show’s young cast, one of the highlights for me has been the 80’s music that plays throughout. There’s just something about cheesy synths and wailing British heartthrobs that makes me want to dance. And so, I’ve put together Eleven (see what I did there) songs to make the Ultimate Stranger Things Party Mixtape Volume One. So, get your puffy vests and baseball caps on, and get ready to dance the night away under flickering Christmas lights.
