Summary
In the Spring of 1986, the town of Hawkins is finally starting to heal from the fire that burned down Starcourt Mall and killed many of its best citizens a year prior.
However, when Jonathan Byers returns to Hawkins for Spring Break, he finds himself caught up in a cosmic mystery that sends him on the run and reopens old wounds the town had thought were finally closed.
Max Mayfield is seeing things. She wanders the halls of Hawkins High as a loner, separated from her old party, as much as they might try to get her back into their circle. Doubly so for Lucas, a basketball rookie who still wants her back more than anything else.
In the meantime, El is eagerly awaiting the arrival of her boyfriend, Dustin in Lenora Hills, California to visit her and Will. What starts as an innocent Spring Break adventure, a reprieve from her struggle to assimilate as easily as her brother, quickly turns into a nightmare when El gets herself into trouble and a familiar face whisks her away, leaving Dustin, Will, and Joyce no choice but to follow her.

Summary
Seven months after the "earthquake" that split Hawkins down the middle and killed countless citizens (including alleged murderers Jonathan Byers and Steve Harrington), the military quarantine has started to weigh down on the town. Those that remained in town before the walls went up are split between supporters and detractors of the increased government presence, and tensions are close to boiling over.
The group that has taken up refuge underneath the radio station embark on what they hope to be their final crawl, sensing that the end is nigh for Henry Creel and his reign of terror. What they don't know is that the truth behind what has controlled the world below Hawkins is much more complex, ancient, and foul than any of them ever could have imagined.
Will wants to prove his power. Dustin has a new attitude. Mike can't look at himself in the mirror. Lucas is sent spiraling. El wants to have normal problems. Max is no closer to waking up. Erica is lost in her own imagination. Jonathan is a dead man walking. Nancy is the nineteen year old leader of a war effort. Robin struggles to maintain order. Joyce must confront danger to learn the truth about herself.
