Stranger Things promotional timeline update
As my followers know, I predicted a promotional timeline for Stranger Things content. After 5 to 6 days any news story dies, so to keep it alive you have to feed it. I based it on the finale (Jan 1), Jamie Campbell Bower's message and the Netflix outage (Jan 6/7), the documentary (Jan 12) and Finn Wolfhard's SNL performance (Jan 17).
So far, I have predicted the Netflix Stranger Things YouTube quiz (Jan 23) and the inconsistent reporting on Nikki Baxter by mainstream media (Jan 28), both can be found on my blog.
Well well well. We are about to expect more conformitygate clues in this teaser trailer. Let's address a couple of things.
Was this promotional timeline this entire month all just for this cartoon?
No, there are a lot of inconsistencies surrounding this animation that suggest it isn't what it seems. I'll link a good Twitter thread with proof and my own post on Nikki Baxter.

@BradleysBigBuy is absolute without a doubt a Netflix plant confirmed
This account started talking about Stranger Things: Tales of '85 unprompted a week prior on Jan 24. There were no new developments on this animation at all since Nov 6. All news publications sourced this account on Jan 28 as if it were legit. It also explains why mainstream media decided to cover this cartoon again all of a sudden, they were tipped off by Netflix and the Stranger Things team to do it. We know this now, because we get a teaser trailer on Feb 2. @BradleysBigBuy also posted this on Jan 31:
Yet again recycling old information about "upside-down vines in the real world with a pumpkin head on top of them that was alive" from this old Jun 11 Collider article:
Stranger Things: Tales From '85 footage was shown at Annecy. Find out the release window, plot details, and what the footage showed.
BUT adding a piece of misinformation, leak or a clue: Minotaurs. Up to us to find out what they mean. Let's keep an eye on this 🪴👀
Promotional timeline 2.0:
Jan 1 -> Jan 6/7 -> Jan 12 -> Jan 17 -> Jan 23 -> Jan 28 -> Feb 2 -> Feb 7/8 -> Feb 12/13/14 -> Feb 17/18/19/20
Due to increased confidence in my own predictions and in those of other conformitygate theorists, I will share possible dates for promotion or content drops for Stranger Things:
- Valentine's Day (Feb 14)
- The Duffer Brothers Birthday (Feb 15)
- Chinese New Year (Feb 17)
My upper bound is Feb 26 due to copyrightgate.
This is going to be an exciting month :)
