“Stranger Things: Fractured Paths” follows a hidden side of the Stranger Things universe, revealing the stories that unfolded far beyond Hawkins’ main timeline. When strange disappearances, corrupted gates, and unexplained psychic signals begin spreading across Indiana, a new group of teens and young adults—along with characters pulled from the most popular Wattpad Stranger Things stories—are forced together by fate.
