Buenos Aires, November 23 (NA) – The excitement surrounding the premiere of the fifth and final season of 'Stranger Things' took an unexpected and typically Buenos Aires turn in the city. According to the Argentine News Agency, to promote the upcoming release, Netflix set up a striking urban installation recreating an iconic corner of Hawkins, the fictional city from the series. Located at a strategic point in the city, the installation included distinctive set elements, among them Will Byers' bicycle, one of the central characters. However, the fans' enthusiasm was overshadowed by an unusual incident. As reported on social media and in the press, the bicycle used as part of the set was stolen by unknown persons in recent hours, partially dismantling Netflix's marketing campaign. Will's bicycle is not just an object, but a recurring symbol in the series, as it is the means by which the kids move around to start their adventures and is, in particular, linked to the character's disappearance in the first season. The theft generated a mix of indignation and humor among followers on social networks, who highlighted the tragicomic touch that this type of incident usually has in the urban environment of Buenos Aires.
