‘Stranger Things’ pop-up store open in Grapevine, fourth season now streaming
“Stranger Things” fans don’t have to journey into an alternate dimension to visit the Netflix show’s iconic locations. Instead, just head to the Grapevine Mills mall.
This is not a telekinetic trick. The official “Stranger Things” pop-up store is open in Grapevine Mills. It’s unclear whether a demogorgon or the mind flayer will be in attendance.
The popular fantasy series, set in a small Indiana town in the mid-1980s, returned with the first volume of its fourth season on May 27, followed by the second volume on July 1. The series follows a group of young friends as they battle foes, from monsters to the lurking secret governmental lab.
Fans will need to travel to the store by next month, as the pop-up closes its doors on Aug. 14.
The pop-up store in Grapevine Mills will give fans a chance to browse iconic locations from the show, including Joyce Byer’s house, Palace Arcade and Starcourt Mall. Photos and video are welcome at every turn of the nostalgia-filled store.
Beyond the famous locales, fans can purchase exclusive merchandise only available at the pop-up, from limited-edition action figures to themed clothing. There’s also plenty of ‘80s-era goodies like replica cereal boxes to go along with your box of Eggo waffles at home.
The store is open Mondays to Thursdays from 11 a.m. to 7:30 p.m., Fridays and Saturdays from 10 a.m. to 8:30 p.m., and Sundays from 11 a.m. to 6:30 p.m.
Tickets are free to visit the store, but signing up for a time slot is preferred. Each person will have 30 minutes to browse the pop-culture playground. Even if you don’t reserve a time, walk-ins are welcome.
The “Stranger Things” store first opened pop-ups in New York City and Los Angeles last year. Following the success of those venues, Chicago and the Dallas area were chosen for the next batch of stores.
