If you watched the Super Bowl on February 5th, then you witnessed something huge. Nah, I'm not talking about the Patriots' incredible win, I'm talking about the teaser trailer for Stranger Things season 2.
About 5 months ago the Duffer brothers and Netflix released a video that gave fans the titles to each episode in season 2. Until Super Bowl night, that was pretty much all the details we had, other than rumors and fan theories.
Now, we have 37 seconds of new content, and I think it's safe to say the every Stranger Things fan is losing their mind! Especially, since it was revealed that season 2 won't be released during the summer like the prior season. The Duffer bros are having us wait until Halloween. Can you believe it?! Don't get me wrong, though, they have a good reason for it. Season 2 takes place during Halloween, so why not have it be released on Halloween day, right? However, the thought of waiting until then is kind of agonizing.
With that being said, I figured I'd compile 11 things you can do while you wait for season 2. These may not hold you over until Halloween, but they may get you through at least a week.
1. Re-watch Season 1
You always watch prior seasons before a new one comes out. Duh.
2. Re-watch the Season 2 teaser trailer
Put that baby on an endless loop!
3. Stock up on Eggos
You're going to need your energy.
4. Listen to Vol. 1 and 2 of Stranger Things
5. Watch David Harbour's mind-blowing SAGAwards speech.
6. Watch Winona Ryder's reaction during said speech.
Her mind was definitely blown.
7. Read/Create theories
WHAT'S GOING ON WITH WILL AND ELEVEN?!
8. Listen to "Should I Stay or Should I Go?" by The Clash on repeat
9. Binge watch 80s films
E.T., The Goonies, Poltergeist, Stand By Me etc. Basically any movie that Stranger Things has parallels with.
10. Read Entertainment Weekly's article on the plot of season 2.
11. Cry (happy tears)
Because even though season 2 seems far away, you're just extremely happy that this fantastic show is coming back.
