'Stranger Things' Stars Brighten Kid's Birthday Party Sadness

The stars of “Stranger Things” just took a kid’s lonely birthday party to another dimension.

No classmates showed up to Aaron Alambat’s “Stranger Things”-themed bash in California ― complete with the wall of lights through which Joyce communicates with her missing son, Will, and a punch called “Demogorgon blood.”

So Aaron’s sister, Ayen Alambat, vented on the internet.
