Netflix's Stranger Things, set in the fictional 1980s Midwestern town of Hawkins, Indiana, was primarily filmed across various locations in Georgia. Iconic landmarks like Melvald's and the library in Jackson's downtown, family residences in East Point, and Hawkins High/Middle School in a former Stockbridge school were utilized. Starcourt Mall scenes were filmed at Gwinnett Place Mall in Duluth, while outdoor biking scenes took place in Stone Mountain Park and surrounding areas. Interior scenes were largely recreated on studio sets.
