Pyramid International Stranger Things 10" Wall Clock with The Upside Down in Gift Box - Official Merchandise

Product Information

It's also worth noting, that the Upside Down is set in the past, years before the events of Stranger Things season 4. There’s a whole giant showdown to come between Eleven and Vecna; they’ve teased that a little in the trailers. Darn I was really hoping they were counting down to a crossover with the Remedy video game universe (Alan Wake, Control, Quantum Break). The face of the prop grandfather clock is actually a design from the mid-18th century, created by (non-accursed) London clockmaker Thomas Grignion.

It's also possible that Nancy didn't need to be 'recruited' by Ms Kelly because she was already in the Upside-Down, thus giving Vecna easy access to her. Stranger Things fans online have had some fun with this concept, posting countless videos to social media joking about clocks that only they can see. The business end of the spooky longcase clock is its ornate face – an eight-day movement (a clock which only needs to be wound once per week using a key), which strikes on the hour. There’s YouTubers out there who made an hour- or two hour-long video of that clock with a still picture of the clock from one of the episodes.And while Henighan knew the clock sound that accompanies him would play a big role in Vecna’s legacy and lore, he’s taken aback by the passionate reaction from the Stranger Things audience, which helped the show score two record binge-watching weekends on Netflix and gave a soaring streaming life to the Kate Bush 1985 song “Running Up That Hill (A Deal With God). Back in May 2020, they shared a photo of a board with all the movies they had been taking a look at for inspiration, and fans were surprised to see they weren’t all from the 1980s, and there were more modern movies as well.

After completing her joint honours degree in Journalism and English Literature at Cardiff University, Iona joined Digital Spy as a Content Production Intern in 2022.

With the final two episodes clocking in at feature length (the finale, episode nine, is two-and-a-half hours long), Henighan and his team are currently in production on the sweeping conclusion of what has so far been a well-received darker, horror-esque turn of the coming-of-age series, and he says the final two episodes continue what Volume 1 set in motion. Before Vecna kills Chrissy, Fred and very nearly Max (thank you Kate Bush), all three saw visions of a creepy grandfather clock chiming ominously as if counting down the time until their deaths.
