Best Stranger Things Gift and Merch Ideas for 2023

Following an exciting fourth season last year, Stranger Things is now on the path toward its fifth and final season. And while it's a natural conclusion to the series, it’s still sad to see it go. In fact, the two-hour pitch for the final season even had some Netflix execs in tears, so it'll clearly be an emotional goodbye. Until then, though, the hit sci-fi series is perfectly rewatchable, and if it’s one of your favorites, it’s also a great time to stock up on gifts and merch to show off your love before its grand finale.

There are plenty of ideas to pick through as well, ranging from excellent T-shirts to cool VHS lights to vinyls for standout hits played throughout the series (Kate Bush albums are worth the investment in general, honestly). In a similar vein, we’ve collected several gift ideas based on references through the series as well, branching out into the worlds of everything from D&D to Ghostbusters so you can truly cover all of your 80s bases.
