In the eerie, small town of Hawkins, Indiana, the Netflix series Stranger Things unleashes a world of supernatural mysteries, eerily mirroring the spiritual conundrums that have haunted humanity for centuries. The show's portrayal of otherworldly events echoes profound spiritual truths found in the Bible, sparking intriguing parallels between the two. For Michael Heiser, the convergence of popular culture and the paranormal in Stranger Things is a perfect storm. Having previously shed light on the supernatural worldview of the Bible in The Unseen Realm, Heiser now delves into the TV phenomenon, examining how its themes intersect with Christian theology and living. In The World Turned Upside Down, Heiser leverages the Bible's supernatural perspective to illuminate the story of Jesus, uncovering fresh insights into the gospel within the Upside Down's dark, mystical landscape. He argues that Stranger Things uniquely illuminates the gospel, addressing spiritual crises with the same mystique and transcendent power found in scripture. By exploring the show's depiction of angels, demons, and supernatural forces, Heiser reveals how Stranger Things offers a glimpse into the unseen realm, a world that underlies our own reality.
