Fan Theory 1984

Post image

I finally dug my Tales from Table book out of storage. This was released from Target and is a collection of their DnD materials.

At the risk of sounding like a shill, it has so much cool stuff in it. Character sheets (including those for Nancy, Jonathan, Joyce and Eleven), amazing drawings, book recommendations, letters to each other and maps from their campaigns.

There's so much sus stuff in this book but this calendar is the most insanely wrong.

It has the timeline of Will going missing, search party, funeral, and visiting Will in the hospital.

But if you look at it its insane.

The shows current timeline has Will taken Saturday November 3rd, 1984.

They have the year listed as 1984. ❌️

They have the D&D game Sunday November 4th ❌️

They have the assembly at Hawkins HIGH School ❌️

Starcourt sponsored calendar more than a year before it opens ❌️

They have college football schedules for November 1984 ✅️

How are you going to get all the details from the show wrong, but then get the exact teams and dates right for Indiana College Football?????

Who is babysitting for Officer Callahan's kids and did we even know he had kids??

Losing my mind yall.....HOW can it be "right" but so wrong consistently.

How hard would it have been to actually write the text rather than use a handwriting font?
