This pairing challenge highlights the unforgettable supporting cast that populates the town of Hawkins—those who might not be part of the core friend group, but whose roles add nuance, levity, and mystery to the story. Your task: match each actor to the side character they portrayed.
➡️ 'Stranger Things' Side Characters: First and Last Letter Word Quest
From tech-savvy allies (like Bob Newby in RadioShack) to interdimensional threats (Vecna himself), and from demon hunters to coffee shop DJs, these characters play pivotal roles that enhance the world of Stranger Things without overshadowing the kids.
Spot the Supporting Stars
Look beyond the town’s core teens, and find the magic in moments of mentorship, conspiracy, or even a cameo in Hawkins’ arcade. These roles may be smaller in screen time, but they’ve left big impressions. Think: the fiercely loyal gamer friend, the charming skeptic, or the unexpected hero in a diner booth.
