Stranger Things has a lot of iconic costumes and hairstyles. However trying to copy them all is not always a good thing.

Why Getting a Tattoo Similar to Stranger Things’ Eleven Is Nothing but a Bad Idea

Stranger Things has given the world a lot of iconic moments and memorials. Apart
from one of the best action moments, the show has numerous wardrobes and
hairstyles that have now become insanely popular. But one of the most popular
things since the show’s first season has to be the 011 tattoo of Eleven.

Copying the tattoo of your favorite character is something that has been going
around for decades now. In fact, fans of the shows get a tattoo of the character
or something that represents their character as soon as they develop a likeness
for them. But people now are copying the 011 tattoo, and it isn’t something that
should be done.

Read along to find out how the tattoo represents one of the darkest periods in
the history of humankind.


WHY SHOULDN’T YOU GET THE 011 TATTOOED FROM STRANGER THINGS?

The tattoos seen in Stranger Things were supposed to be blatant references to
the dehumanization of Jews during the Holocaust. And the program is well aware
of this. Because Eleven is merely one of many subjects at the Hawkins lab

and she is assigned a number rather than a name.

Despite his somewhat kind demeanor, Dr. Brenner

had little interest in Eleven, Kali, or any of the other orphans beyond their
ability. She was deprived of both her hair and her freedom, as well as the name
her mother had given her.

This isn’t the first time the show has drawn a Nazi connection. The Russian Jail
sequences in Season 4

were shot in a former Nazi prison in Lithuania.

While many other fandoms around the world have gotten something from their
favorite shows’ tattoos. For example, the Deathly Hallows from the Harry Potter
[https://netflixjunkie.com/netflix-originals-the-harry-potter-connection-of-vecna-in-stranger-things-is-not-just-the-nose/]
franchise. Or the LOTR Elvish tattoo. 

Tattoos from Stranger Things

the dehumanization of Jews during the Holocaust.

At the end of the day, a tattoo is a personal choice, and one can get whatever
they want. But the real reason and symbol behind it should be known to all.

What do you guys think? Is the tattoo still a good choice or not? Share your
opinion with us in the comments.
