They say "No one that dies in Derry ever really dies." Maybe that's true. Maybe not at first. Eventually, everything fades one way or another. Will Byers is a sweet kid who understands this better than anyone else. The Byers family decided, of all places, to move to Derry, Maine to get away from the danger and sadness of Hawkins, Indiana. Without their past causing rumors to pop up, Will was no longer the "zombie kid" with his "perverted" older brother. He was just a new kid in a weird little town. The Byers family had no idea how dark this town truly was.
