What Is Stranger Things?
Stranger Things is a Netflix science fiction horror series created by Matt and Ross Duffer, premiering July 15, 2016. Set primarily in the fictional town of Hawkins, Indiana, beginning in November 1983, it follows a group of friends whose lives change when one of them disappears and a girl with extraordinary powers, Eleven, emerges from a secret government laboratory. The series ran five seasons, with the final season releasing across late 2025 and January 2026, and each season expands the mythology of the Upside Down, a parallel dark dimension inhabited by monsters that bleed into the human world through gates torn open by Eleven’s powers.
What’s Inside This Collection
Eleven
Eleven, real name Jane Hopper, is the most represented character in the collection, spanning her Season 1 shaved-head appearance with a pink dress and the distinctive nosebleed that marks her telekinetic power use, through her progressively longer brown hair in later seasons. Scene tiles capture her using her powers, and lighter tiles show her eating ice cream or in the ghost sheet costume from her Season 1 trick-or-treating scene.
The Kids
Mike Wheeler, the group’s de facto leader, Dustin Henderson, recognizable by his curly hair and baseball cap, Lucas Sinclair, and Will Byers, whose Season 1 disappearance sets the series in motion, each have multiple dedicated pages. Max Mayfield, introduced in Season 2, is identifiable by her distinctive red hair.
The Adults
Jim Hopper, Hawkins’ police chief and Eleven’s eventual adoptive father, appears in his police uniform and signature hat. Steve Harrington and Robin Buckley, including their Scoops Ahoy ice cream shop uniforms from Season 3, and Billy Hargrove, Max’s antagonistic stepbrother, round out the human cast.
The Demogorgon and Ensemble Scenes
The Demogorgon, Season 1’s primary monster, is the most represented non-human subject, a tall, eyeless creature with a flower-like mouth structure in uniform dark grayish-brown. Several ensemble tiles place the full cast together in group compositions spanning different points in the story.
What These Pages Do
The American Academy of Pediatrics identifies fine motor skill development as a core benefit of structured coloring for children ages 2 through 7, and the collection’s range, from simple portraits to detailed monster pages, suits older fans of the series with a wide range of skill levels.
A 2005 study in the Art Therapy Journal documented measurable reductions in anxiety following structured coloring sessions. Matching each character’s specific, deliberately differentiated palette gives colorists a clear, focused visual problem to solve.
How to Color Stranger Things Pages Well
- Eleven’s hair: a natural medium-dark brown with no warm or cool bias, never black, auburn, or any non-natural color, growing progressively longer across the seasons.
- The Demogorgon: a restrained, near-monochromatic dark grayish-brown throughout, slightly warmer on lit surfaces and significantly darker around the face petals, with no bright color anywhere on its body.
- The Upside Down: a dark blue-black overall tone with small pale particle flecks against the background, and any familiar surface, wood, walls, grass, rendered darker and more desaturated with a blue-black cast layered over it.
- Steve’s hair: a consistent medium-dark brown, slightly lighter at the peaks where light catches the styled, swept-back shape.
- The 1983 Hawkins palette: warm and slightly desaturated, burgundy, tan, olive, denim blue, and plaid, in contrast to the cold darkness of Upside Down scenes.
5 Creative Craft Ideas With Stranger Things Coloring Pages
1. Eleven Through the Seasons Timeline
Color a Season 1 Eleven page and a later-season Eleven page side by side, tracking her hair length and wardrobe change, then mount both with the season years labeled below each.
2. The Party Group Portrait
Color individual pages for Mike, Dustin, Lucas, Will, and Eleven in their canonical palettes, then arrange them together as a group portrait representing the show’s core friend group.
3. Demogorgon Study
Color a Demogorgon page using the restrained monochromatic brown-grey technique, focusing on value variation around the face petals to give the form depth without introducing any color outside that range.
4. Hawkins vs. Upside Down Contrast Card
Color one page set in ordinary Hawkins in the warm 1983 palette and one ensemble page reimagined in the cold Upside Down tones, then mount both together to show how the same character reads differently in each world’s color language.
5. Scoops Ahoy Duo
Color the Steve and Robin Scoops Troop page in the nautical white-and-blue uniform with its red neckerchief, then mount it captioned with the Starcourt Mall setting from Season 3.
