Story based off of a tik tok by @ demobats_ Eddie survives the upside down, and with the help of his friends (specifically Nancy since she's a journalist) his name is cleared. Despite this, he can't sleep. One night he goes outside to get some fresh air after a nightmare, when a car pulls into his driveway...

A few weeks after beating Vecna, Steve finds himself struggling with nightmares. Again. Little does he know, Eddie is in the same boat. (A/N: Its a bit slow at first, but after the first couple chapters it'll speed up a bit. Thanks for reading!)

Eddie woke up in the upside-down after being attacked by hundreds of demabats. He thought he died, but he remembered everything. Now he's back in Hawkins trying to get back into a new normal with a few broken laws on his record. And him having a crush on one of his good friends doesn't make life any easier for him. /follows the vampire theory/ /This takes place after volume 2
