In just over a month since it debuted, Netflix’sStranger Thingshas become a massive hit. Fans have already been clamoring for Season 2 of thissupernatural mysteryseries, which was essentially confirmed by a Netflix executive recently, although an official announcement has yet to be made. While we wait for this new season, fans can have some fun by creating their own title cards with the 80s-infusedStranger Thingsfont.
A new website has surfaced entitledMakeItStranger.com, where fans can type in anything they please to make their own custom title card. However, this format is somewhat limited, since you can only have one line on top and another on the bottom, and they don’t allow you to use the space bar to separate multiple words on one line. So if you’re planning on using this for an elaborate message in this format, it may not be the best thing ever, but it’s still quite fun to use.
The website was put together byNelson Cash, who wrote an extensive blog on the history behind this font, which is quite similar to the font used in several iconicStephen Kingbooks from the 1980s. Of course, the show itself is set in the year 1983, and is described by Netflix itself as a “love letter” to the1980s, and anyone who grew up in this decade can immediately identify several of the themes and tropes at play. We even shared a video a few weeks ago which showcases all of the 1980s movies and TV shows referenced byStranger Things, side by side.
As forStranger Things Season 2, Netflix CEOReed Hastingsrecently commented that the streaming service would be “stupid” if they didn’t issue a renewal forStranger Things, but nothing is set in stone quite yet. The first season spanned eight episodes, and it isn’t known if there are plans for an extended second season. We even reported earlier this month thatAdam F. Goldberg, who created ABC’s hit comedyThe Goldbergs, which is also set in the 1980s, wants to do acrossover episode.
Series creatorsMattandRoss Dufferhave teased that Season 2 would be a continuation of the hit first season, although it isn’t known if they have already started writing the new season quite yet. IfNetflixdoes issue a Season 2 renewal, it will most likely return sometime next summer. While we wait for more details, take a look at one example of the title cards you can create forStranger Things.
