The first season of "Stranger Things" told the story of secret government experiments on children gone wrong. Various kids were born with supernatural abilities, and imprisoned in the Hawkins National Lab (HNL) for testing.
When Eleven, an 11-year-old girl with "011" tattooed on her wrist, escaped the HNL in 1983, she encountered a group of boys who were looking for their friend Will, a fellow preteen who had been taken into an alternate dimension known as the Upside Down.
But now, in season four of the Netflix series, the timeline of events has been expanded all the way back to the 1950s. New scenes explained at last how and why Eleven accessed the Upside Down while inside the HNL.
With the following timeline, we break down exactly how the new villain in the Upside Down (Vecna) was created — and why he's been haunting Eleven and Hawkins since 1979.
Note: Events marked with an asterisk (*) have been estimated based on context clues within the show.
