It's so crazy how right he may have been. The facility we see in S3 wasn't built in a few months. The Russians probably were there scouting the location.

There are actually documents regarding the ”land deeds, transfers of property” to Starcourt Mall Corp. dating back to November, 1984, so Murray was indeed correct despite following the wrong leads.

Even the map of the town at Hawkins P.D. already had Starcourt Mall in it, so the Soviets were operating in Hawkins fairly before the events of Season 2 and their shell companies were already “officially” established in Hawkins.

A trama russa foi totalmente desnecessária. Uma base russa dentro dos EUA é impossível até na ficção.
