In a plot twist worthy of the Upside Down, a family Christmas gathering is being hijacked by a 'Stranger Things' marathon. Grandma, who was hoping for a traditional holiday filled with carols and eggnog, is now preparing for a full day of Demogorgons and nostalgia-inducing 80s references.

'It's not exactly what I had in mind for Christmas,' sighed Grandma, as the family gathered around the TV rather than the dinner table. 'I suppose it's a new kind of family tradition, but I do miss the days when the only thing we binge-watched was the Queen's speech.'

Meanwhile, the rest of the family couldn't be more excited to swap festive tunes for the show's eerie soundtrack. 'We can always do turkey sandwiches during the next episode,' suggested one family member, already setting up camp on the couch.

It seems the only thing stranger than the show itself is this year's holiday plans. Who knew that Hawkins, Indiana, would become the unexpected backdrop for a Christmas celebration?
