Early drafts of the animated series Stranger Things: Tales from '85 featured more adult characters like Steve Harrington and Jim Hopper, but scenes were cut to emphasize the franchise's youthful innocence. The spin-off, set between seasons 2 and 3, focuses on the younger characters' smaller-scale adventures before the major world-saving events of later seasons.
