9 Predictions Based On The Stranger Things Season 3 Trailer

9. The New Mall Is Built Over The Old Site Of The Hawkins National Laboratory

This may sound like a stretch, but upon repeated re-watching of the trailer it starts to make quite a bit of sense. Last season saw the end of the lab, after they admitted to having a hand in Barb's death.

So when you think about it, what's the best way to repurpose a large space such as a lab, ensure people quickly forget what used to be there, and most importantly what was going on behind its doors? How about knocking it down and using the foundation to build a huge mall?

As is evidenced in the trailer by the picket line of Hawkins citizens protesting the development, the mall is a new addition to the community. It's the perfect way for the government to slap a bandage over the haemorrhaging issue that is Hawkins, Indiana.

The trailer also promises that a pretty significant showdown will take place at the mall, featuring a majority of the cast versus a mutant, bloody looking Demogorgan. Let's hope the mall has insurance that covers mutant, other-worldly monster attacks.
