HEROES | stranger things |

Sunny Henderson had always been smart-just not in the way people usually meant when they said it. She wasn't a math genius like her twin brother Dustin, who lived and breathed numbers and science, who could lose hours to circuits and theories and experiments. Sunny's intelligence lived somewhere quieter, tucked between the pages of the books she devoured and the stories she carried around in her head. While everyone else at Hawkins Middle seemed perfectly content being clueless, she noticed things. Patterns. Feelings. The way people hid parts of themselves behind jokes and bravado.

Books were her escape, her safe place, her proof that there was a bigger world waiting beyond the cracked sidewalks of Hawkins. She never imagined she'd actually have to face one of those worlds herself.

Everything changes the night her best friend Will vanishes after a late-night game of Dungeons & Dragons. One moment he's laughing with the group, rolling dice and arguing about rules, and the next he's gone-like he was erased. The town insists it's an accident. A wrong turn. Bad luck. But Sunny knows better. Things don't just disappear like that. People don't vanish without leaving something behind.

As Hawkins begins to feel smaller and darker, Sunny is pulled into a mystery that refuses to stay buried. Strange events ripple through the town, secrets crawl to the surface, and the line between imagination and reality starts to blur. The stories she once escaped into begin to feel uncomfortably real-and for the first time, she's living inside one she doesn't know how to finish.
