Stranger Things has always been a fan favorite show on Netflix with one of the best fighting scenes for sure. Every season brings us amped-up horrific fighting scenes, which blows the mind of viewers. The show becomes more fun when all the characters, except Eleven, use everyday objects around them to fight the monsters along with some banter. In season 3, Netflix incorporates some 80s spy caper tropes, and the action ratchets up a level to good old-fashioned bare-knuckle brawling.

Needless to say, from Season 1 to season 3, the show has some awe-inspiring fighting scenes. As we await season 4 release date to come closer, let’s refresh our memory and take a look at the best fighting scenes of Stranger Things, from season 1 to 3.

While Hopper keeps the being away with his shotgun, Eleven attempts to close the gate with her full power, while elevating in the air. The scene is such a marvel to take in.

#2: Eleven’s most badass moment: This one deserves to be right at the top. We are talking about the Eleven’s epic moment from season 3. The monster attacks the entire gang and Eleven cuts of its tentacles but gets dragged by another tentacle. Now, the entire gang tries to get her out of the monster’s grip by pulling her by her hands. Meanwhile, Nancy starts shooting the monster, while Lucas takes an axe to chop off its branches. Out of the monster’s grip, Eleven finishes the monster with her powers.

#3. Lighting up the monster: In season 1, Nancy, Jonathan, and Steve trapped the Upside Down monster. The monster appears in the house and attacks Jonathan. Nancy tries to save him by shooting, but bullets don’t affect it one bit. Then Steve comes to their rescue, traps the monster, and light it on fire.

#4: Rocks and Eleven vs monster: The next fighting scene is also from Season 1, when Mike, Dustin, and Lucas try to kill the monster with rock. The rocks didn’t even affect it. Instead, it moves closer to the trio. To their rescue, Eleven comes and kills the monster, after bidding adieu to Mike.
