"Hawkins Power & Light" - Stranger Things Fan Film (2026)

This film is not affiliated with Netflix or the Duffer Brothers. It was not produced for profit; it was made on a shoestring budget by some college kids who love Stranger Things. WATCH IN 4K! Headphones recommended :) Set during the events of Season 1, one of Brenner's failed experiments escapes Hawkins Lab along with Eleven. I can't believe it's finally here. We've spent an entire year putting together this film, and it's been something I wanted to create for over SEVEN YEARS now. Stranger Things defined my childhood and inspired me to pursue filmmaking; the Demogorgon alone convinced me to learn visual effects, and now I got the honor of bringing it to life. HAWKINS POWER & LIGHT takes place in 1983 and is the story of three high-school graduates (Wesley, Joey, and Marcus) who happen upon X-03, an escaped experiment from Hawkins Lab. Before they know it, they're thrust into a dark government conspiracy, hunted down by special operatives and the villainous Agent Wexler. To make matters worse, a strange entity seems to be stalking them from the shadows... produced by THE SNOW BROTHERS NINE HATS MEDIA shot, edited, and scored by JACOB SNOW https://www.instagram.com/jacobsnowfilms sound design by ZACH FROST https://www.instagram.com/zach_frost111/ costume and props master ZACH FROST written and directed by JACOB SNOW with co-writer ZACH FROST MAIN CAST: AIDEN HUTCHINS as X-03 ZACH FROST as WESLEY JOHN LEONARD as MARCUS https://www.instagram.com/johnnyl5150/ LUKA AGGOUNE as JOEY https://www.instagram.com/lu_ka7125/ DAVE DROSKI as UNCLE BEN SUPPORTING CAST: ERIKA STAMY as AGENT WEXLER KEFIR KLEE as MIKE https://www.instagram.com/kefirkleeofficial/ NATE WELCH as AGENT HAWTHORNE https://www.instagram.com/nate_welch/ KNIGHTLEY KLEE as GUNMAN ARCANA as LOOKOUT STEVEN KLEE as BRENNER & RV GUY MICHAEL CAMM as VOICE OF BRENNER https://www.fiverr.com/michaelcamm?source=inbox JOSH TRUAX as SOLDIER 1 ASH SNOW as SOLDIER 2 KEFIR KLEE as SOLDIER 3 COREY MINAROVIC as SOLDIER 4 R as SOLDIER 5 ZACH FROST as SOLDIER 6 LUKA AGGOUNE as SOLDIER 7 AIDEN HUTCHINS as SOLDIER 8 OTHER CREW: ASH SNOW --- CATERER JJ SNOW --- PERSON DRAGGER ASH SNOW --- LIGHT FLICKERER JJ SNOW --- DRIVER Thank you for watching!
