The real name for The Upside Down

The Upside Down is a place fans are very familiar with from stranger things, but this wasn’t supposed to be the name for the eerie and mysterious place.

Millie Bobby Brown revealed that the original name for the place was the Nether, but they started calling it The Upside Down on set and the name just resonated with everyone and it stuck. The same thing happened with the Shadow Monster in season 2 and it was supposed to be the Mind Flayer.
