The world of the Upside Down is officially bleeding into our reality this week with a new treat for fans of the hit Netflix series. Flix Candy has released a collectible new line of Stranger Things candy that allows you to carry your favorite characters (and villains) right in your pocket.

Collect All Four: The Stranger Things Pop Ups! Lineup

The new Stranger Things Pop Ups! Lollipop collection features four unique dispensers designed after the most iconic faces from Hawkins. Each dispenser comes with three assorted Chupa Chups lollipops, making them a perfect blend of a collectible toy and a sweet snack.

The four designs available in this drop include:

  • Eleven: Featuring her signature “superpower” stare and a drop of blood from her nose.
  • Dustin: Wearing his iconic blue and white “Thinking Cap.”
  • Vecna: A detailed, flesh-toned sculpt of the terrifying ruler of the Upside Down.
  • The Demogorgon: Showcasing the creature’s petal-like mouth filled with rows of teeth.

Where to Find Them

If you are looking to complete your set, you won’t have to travel to another dimension. These are heading to candy shops and major stores across the country right now. According to recent updates, you can find this Stranger Things candy at the following locations:

  • Five Below
  • Walmart
  • Walgreens
  • Rite-Aid
  • Kohl’s
  • Amazon

Whether you are a fan of the heroic “Party” or you prefer the monsters of the dark, these dispensers are a must-have for any collector. Keep an eye on your local candy aisle, as these limited-edition releases tend to vanish quickly once they hit the shelves. Additionally, these will go nicely with the Kinder Joy Stranger Things collectibles.

HHN 35: Is Stranger Things Returning to the Fog?

The “Tales From ’85” hype is perfectly timed with the latest whispers surrounding Halloween Horror Nights 35. Speculation is reaching a fever pitch as the newest HHN 35 speculation map has surfaced, and it contains a very familiar icon: an upside-down grandfather clock.

For those keeping track of theme park news, the clock is a clear nod to Vecna and the world of Stranger Things. While Universal hasn’t confirmed anything, the map suggests that an anniversary year for HHN could see the return of this powerhouse IP, possibly focusing on the darker elements of the later seasons or even the new animated lore.

Beyond the Upside Down, the map hints at other terrifying possibilities:

  • Pinhead / Hellraiser: A pincushion icon has fans hoping for a debut of the Cenobites.
  • Evil Dead: A burning book icon points toward another encounter with the Necronomicon.

Whether you’re collecting toys at McDonald’s, getting Stranger Things candy, or preparing for the 2026 haunt season, it’s clear that the Upside Down is the place to be this year.
