How can people get so deep into this this shit is just another

It's not a mystery at all. It's a self contained story about saving will from the mirror universe and killing the monster thats taking people.

This is nothing like Lost. Lost had great characters with very detailed and interesting backstories.Stranger Things sells itself purely on 80s nostalgia designed for people who didn't grow up in the era (gen z, late millennials). Also, the fact that they tied up all of the "mystery" in Lost the way they did is a testament to how good the show really is. I don't think there is any other show out there that so successfully combines the paranormal, time travel, paradoxes, synchronicity, ideas of classical (jules verne) science-fiction, the supernatural, secret organisations, etc, etc. Stranger Things leaves a lot of its "mystery" out for plot convenience because the writers were either lazy or too incompetent to figure things out. I'm gonna guess it's the former considering how much of Stranger Things is actually stolen from other works: Spielberg (E.T., Goonies, Super 8) and Stephen King stories (Stand By Me, Firestarter, IT)
